You may have noticed that our posts have been more random lately. That’s partly because we’re still figuring out how to visit a new bar every week in spite of incompatible schedules and limited geographical range, but there’s another reason that’s much more fun.
We’ve been working on Cheers and Amen, the book about our year-long 50-state quest to visit a bar and a church in every state, and we’ve finally got something to show for all our (mostly Dean’s) hard work. Not only that, but you can help determine what the finished book will look like and what kind of extras it needs. We need your thoughts, so we’ve got a special offer for you.
Here’s the deal: the work in progress paperback (we're calling it the first edition because it sounds better) is now available at Amazon. We don’t anticipate changing the main content, but what sidebars and/or end matter (all the tourist traps we visited, where we watched movies in each state, alternative sleeping arrangements, etc.) do you want to see? What do you think of the cover? Would you like photos inside?
Leave a comment here or on Facebook, or email us: deanandmindygotochurch at gmail dot com . We want to incorporate your suggestions, so let us know what you think we need to include. We want your ideas whether or not you buy the first edition!
Thank you so much for your help. Writing (and editing) the book has been fun, but way slower than we'd anticipated. We're happy to finally have something to share with you, and we can't wait to hear what you think.

PS There are so many stories that didn’t fit into the book. We’re working on ways to share those with you as well. In the meantime, we’ll be walking into another bar -- possibly one that's not in California's Central Valley -- next week.
