Hurray and Huzzah! It is time to shout. My book –
There Once Was a Prophet from Judah:
Biblical Limericks for Fun and Prophet – is now ready for you to purchase.
Yes. Yes. After what seems like months and months of waiting (seems like months
and months because it has been months and months) the book is really, and truly
in print.
And you can order your very own copy. Or you can order your very own seven or
eight copies. I won’t stop you. Retail price is $23.00. For that price you are
getting a collection of limericks spanning both the Old and New Testaments, as
well as that mostly unread stuff in the Apocrypha, and a number of slightly
not-so-biblical limericks. That’s several hundred limericks. But Wait! There’s
more! You’ll also get the preface, written by my good friend, Joel Watts –
who also has a couple of books available from Wipf and Stock. (And his book,
Praying in God’s Theater, has an afterword written by me. Just
sayin’…)
I should warn you, though, the limericks in
There Once Was a Prophet from Judah are
limericks and that means they tend to be
… somewhat uncouth. Rough around the edges. They deal with unmentionable
things. And in this, they are very much like the Bible, from which they have
been drawn. Prepare to be stung, provoked, and irritated. Fair warning.
If, after all that, you’re still eager to purchase a copy (or seven or eight) the
following will be helpful:
Immediately, starting today (02/20/2018), you can order it from the Wipf and
Stock Customer Service line at 541-344-1528.
It will be available from the
Wipf and stock website in 2 weeks.
