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

    Subject: Agile Software Development
    Publisher: Ingram Spark
    Format: Book
    Audience: Adults
    Type: Non-fiction

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

Ads Are Everywhere. Here’s How I Shield Myself So What I Have Feels Like Enough

I watched the first game of the World Series this week, rooting for the Brewers, of course, the team I grew up with. It was a great reminder that sports-viewing can be fun. It was also a shocking reminder of what I’ve been missing by not watching live TV: the ads. I’ve been sheltered from all of this for a while, and I’d forgotten how annoying ads are. Which got me thinking about why I am constantly avoiding ads, and how you can too.

A Weekend Trip to Colorado and Wyoming in the Fall

Most of my trips to Colorado end the same way, with me on a plane wondering why I don’t live there. That’s the short version of this post. The longer version involves a moose, hundreds of elk, a farmer’s market, a side trip to Wyoming, afternoon tea, and the best wildlife day I’ve had at Rocky Mountain National Park in years. And I did all that in two and a half days.
