Hi everyone. I just wanted to share with you that Fifty Sides of The Beach Boys has won a bronze medal at the Independent Publisher Book Awards, to be handed out in New York on May 29. I want to thank people on this board for their support, their informative posts, and for their direct and indirect help in putting the book together. The complete list of awards winners is here: http://www.independentpublisher.com/article.php?page=1653

Well deserved!  It's a handsome book (even on Kindle), and it's full of great, clear, informative and enriching material.

Many congrats Mark.  This book is attracting an awful lot of commendations and rightly so.

Gotta say, the generosity of offering a digital version FOC to those who've bought the paper version is to be applauded. Ingenious. I turn to it every time I'm at the Doc's (cos the reading material on offer there is either depressing stuff about bowel cancer, trying to quit or having a baby!) and enjoy re-reading chapter after chapter.

Hope Ian & Jon's publisher has spotted that with regard to the live in concert book that's a comin'.  :D

Now, Mark, about that Ferrari…

Hey Little Tomboy is creepy. Banging women by the pool is fun and conjures up warm summer thoughts a Beach Boys song should.

I purchased the print copy - how do I go about claiming my free digital version?!

If I recall correctly, the instructions are inside the book.  Which means you have to actually read it!  LOL

Haha! I must confess I'm a notoriously flighty reader with multiple books on the go at once so I'm still only 2/3rds of the way through - It's perfect for reading on the go so hopefully will finish it now!

Lime is food? Yep.

Mandarin and Clementine went to meet the entire citrus gang, nobody ate people.
