Agile Discovery & Delivery Available Through Ingram Spark

February 27, 2024

I’ve got some exciting news today! My book, Agile Discovery & Delivery, is now also available via Ingram Spark! What’s Ingram Spark, you say? It’s a publishing company that has a wide distribution network to bookstores (Barnes & Noble, Target, all the independent bookstores) and libraries. So, you may very well see my book at your local library or bookstore soon! It’s also still available, of course, on Amazon. I’ve already seen it show up at Barnes & Noble, Thriftbooks, and other bookshops, which is just so awesome!

With Ingram Spark, I now have a book with a nice book jacket (which you can see in the featured picture) and I really like how it turned out. I, again, used GetCovers to make tweaks to my hardcover & paperback covers for Ingram Spark.

Request a Copy For Your Library

Would you do me a giant favor? To help make my book more available to everyone that needs to read it, would you request that your local library get a copy? It takes two minutes and it’s free! Libraries are always looking for new books that their reader base will enjoy. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Grab your library card, as you will need to enter your library card number

  2. Search for your local library’s Request a Book page

    Search for “<your library name> Request a Book” or “<your library name> Book Recommendation” and you should find a link straight to the book request form. I was able to easily find links for Madison Public Library, Fairfax Public Library, San Francisco Public Library, and Seattle Public Library in about two minutes.

  3. Fill out the form, here are some common answers you’ll need:

    Book Title: Agile Discovery & Delivery: A Survival Guide for New Software Engineers & Tech Entrepreneurs
    Book Author: Amber R. Field
    ISBN: 9798988482208
    Publication Date: Nov 22, 2023
    Subject: Agile Software Development
    Publisher: Ingram Spark
    Format: Book
    Audience: Adults
    Type: Non-fiction

  4. Submit – Thanks a ton for requesting my book!

Viking Rhine River Cruise: The Good and The Bad

Viking Rhine River Cruise: The Good and The Bad

We went on a Viking River Cruise down the Rhine River this July. The trip was wonderful in many ways, but it was not quite what I expected in a few important ones. The Rhine River was low so we ended up switching boats partway through the cruise. This is my account of both the day-by-day itinerary, what we actually did, and my verdict on whether a Viking River Cruise was right for us (and whether it may be right for you).

How I Plan a Trip (And Why the Planning Is Half the Fun)

I am an enthusiastic trip planner. At any given moment, I would rather be traveling (seeing new things, trying new foods, meeting new people) than almost anything else in the world. For me, planning the trip is almost as fun as actually taking it. So, let me walk you through how I plan a trip, from the first spark of interest to the last booking.
