    New Illustrated Hammock Basics Book NOW AVAILABLE!

    hammock-basics-spread.jpg

    Hey everyone! I want to announce I've published a new illustrated book on hammock basics! This is a much smaller, packable book that focuses on the essentials -- great for those looking for bite-size info if you're just starting with hammocks, and if you want to share the fundamentals with a friend. Paperback $8 at Amazon.com https://bit.ly/hammockbasicsbook

    Already bought the other two, this would be a great gift for someone you want to get into hammocks. Any thoughts on kindle version? Hate to say it but I haven't bought a book in paper for years now.

    A Kindle version may come down the road, but I'm not sure it will be worth the effort for me. I'll see what kind of demand is out there. Kindle has new requirements for digital and since my books are graphic-rich and use complex layouts, the formatting is much more complex and difficult. I had originally planned to republish the content on my website. My intent with this little book is to really help educate and support folks learning to master the basics, so having the content freely available on the web is part of that strategy. The book / paperback format is really for those who want something easy and contained to share.

    As REI is a big seller of ENO gear, I hope you can get your book into their stores. I had planned on giving “lessons” at the one in Bend, but they changed their policy a while back and now only REI employees can give presentations. And of course they tout their own products (ENO, Kammock, REI brands). Any of your three books would be a welcome addition to their “how to” selections.
