I'm a big supporter of the "Buy Local" movement, having seen both through research studies and personal experience that supporting merchants within your own town and neighborhood benefits your community far more than buying from a big-box chain store. For obvious reasons, I am especially supportive of local booksellers, though sadly there are few in the part of Texas where I live.
In keeping with this, below is a list of ten websites of indie bookstores around the country where you can order copies of my novel The Last Word. Getting your copy from one of them rather than another online option directly helps your local community, and the more local business that thrive the better off we'll all be.

I will post more indie stores in the days ahead, but even if you are from a different part of the country, or if your area has no indie store, you can still order from one of these shops. Keep on reading..
