I usually say that this book is worth its weight in gold....

but I hopped on over to see what kind of price tag Amazon had on the
book to get the comment that it was "outrageously expensive."

Here, from Amazon:

Hey they descreased it from $99 this morning! I emailed them to ask
if it was a mistake and they said it wasn't - that it was priced that
way cuz it was out of print and the "only other place to get it" was
on a UK site for $300+ in U.S. dollars. I figured they were full of
it. Glad to know I can get it from the author rather than some rip-
off artist. lol

**You'll notice *I'm* not the one listing it on Amazon, so I'm afraid
Jon won't be quitting any time soon <g>. ~Rue

That's so odd! I got a copy for much less than that. Not sure if I bought it on Amazon. Maybe order it through Barnes and Noble or Borders and then go pick it up at the store. It's GOTTA cost less!

Just ordered it right from Herself the Author Elf, Rue, and it's WAY
less than that.

I still remember sitting in the main speaker room at the L&L conference
when Parenting a Free Child was brand new, reading my copy and Rue came
by and sat down next to me and said it was still a pretty odd feeling
seeing people sitting around actually reading HER book :-)

Maybe that's what I did, order from her. Sounds familiar.

Have you emailed them? I don't think it's cool tht they are
capitalizing on your work the way they are. Maybe you could just list
your book on Amazon with theirs?
