Hurry, Buy a Book -- So I Can Write More

I read recently that record album sales are down 11 percent from the year before. That's where the domino effect starts to crimp creativity. Not only are the big stars hurting on sales, but the little guy will have a harder time of becoming a pop star icon, let alone making a living at making music.

The same goes for people who write. Whether they are writing short stories, novels, poetry, nonfiction, after a while if there is no audience, the disincentive to go on can be overwhelming.

The similarities between free music downloads and reading everything for free online may point to the same target, that disincentive to create.

If a copyright on a work has no  meaning and the artist cannot earn rewards for work, we all might as well become actuaries somewhere.

I'd write more, but only if you buy one or more of my 19 books.
Just a few of my book titles.

Buccino: Nutley Notables Autograph Party Sunday Afternoon

A NEW BOOK FOR NUTLEY HISTORY LOVERS 
NUTLEY NOTABLES: THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO MADE 
A MEMORABLE IMPACT ON OUR HOME TOWN, NUTLEY, NEW JERSEY 
BY ANTHONY BUCCINO 

 Nutley Notables invited to afternoon group-autograph session 
at coffee clatch on Sunday afternoon, Jan. 18, at Jarets Stuffed Cupcakes 

NUTLEY, NJ – In a new twist to the author signing and book launch for his new book Nutley Notables, the Men and Women Who Made a Memorable Impact on Our Home Town, Nutley, New Jersey, local author Anthony Buccino is inviting all the people mentioned in the 200-plus pages of biographical sketches about Nutley people to come and sign their profile page at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 18, 2015, at Jarets Stuffed Cupcakes, 231 Franklin Avenue, Nutley, N.J.

Nutley Notables include Old West sharpshooter Annie Oakley who has a street here named in her honor; home-diva Martha Stewart who grew up on Elm Place and often writes of growing up in Nutley but has no street named for her; and others who may have to wait a while for street naming honors.

Featured individuals run the gamut from politicians to high school coaches and athletes; from notorious personalities to beloved entertainers to the fellow in the local shop to the artists and writers who toiled long ago and today. Their images and stories document the unique contributions they've made that shaped Nutley today. Even the most ardent Nutley historian will find new surprises in this collection.

 The book launch will be at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 18, 2015, at Jarets Stuffed Cupcakes, 231 Franklin Avenue, Nutley, N.J. For more information, visit NutleyNotables.com. A limited supply will be available on site.

The book is available online at Amazon.com
