Hi Deirdre, 

Thanks for your call from Harbin Hot Springs this morning, Deirdre. I can't call you back, but let's email. Am including Sunheart, Sajjad and Eric here, in case your email address isn't correct. What is the best email address to communicate with you, Deirdre? Sunheart, Sajjad and Eric, - what please is Deirdre's email address?

Namaste, Scott

Hi Deirdre,

Thanks again for you call today. 

Am wondering if I could possibly explore selling my Naked Harbin Ethnography: book - 
Naked Harbin Ethnography:                   
Hippies, Warm Pools, Counterculture, Clothing-Optionality & Virtual Harbin
by Scott MacLeod
Foreword by Nelson H.H. Graburn
UC Berkeley Professor Emeritus of Sociocultural Anthropology

http://www.scottmacleod.com/ActualVirtualHarbinBook.html - through the Harbin book store. It retails for 64.95, and Sunheart is central in it (and Sajjad suggested self-publishing it), and years ago I was in touch with Eric in the 3D virtual world of Second Life, which also plays a role in my book re developing a virtual Harbin in VR. 

Best, 
Scott

Hi Scott, 

I’m sorry we couldn’t speak on the phone in person.  Currently, we do not have the room in our front office to sell any books.  It will be a number of years before we rebuild our facilities.

Hi Deirdre, (and Sajjad),

Thanks for your email, and thanks again for your call from Harbin. If only Harbin had a Paris Book Stall on wheels - 




Or a bookstore on wheels -




- then Harbin could start to earn money on the books it sells right now.

For example, my "Naked Harbin Ethnography" book which lists at $64.95 would bring in $25.98 to Harbin for each copy sold. (The 60%/40% split for booksellers is standard, where retailers - like Harbin in this hypothetical case - would make 40% but where retailers also pay for shipping and handling and other related non-wholesaler/distributor/publisher costs which split the 60%). 


And my other two books of poetry - also Harbin-centric - could sell well in such a Harbin Bookstore on Wheels: 

Winding Road Rainbow: Harbin, Wandering & the Poetry of Loving Bliss
which lists for $9.99
(would bring in about $4.00 per copy sold to Harbin)

Haiku~ish: and Other, Loving, Hippy, Harbin Poetry 
which lists for $5.50
(would bring in about $2.20 per copy sold to Harbin)


And I'm planning to publish my 4th partly Harbin-inspired book this autumn as well, price not yet determined: 

"To the Dance or the Pools? ~ Virtually!: How different it is to soak at Harbin, than to realize it in virtual reality"


(All these books are published in the NEW Academic Press at World University and School as well - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html - planned with machine translation in all 7111 known living languages).

Best Regards, Scott

World Univ & Sch may seek to develop a fleet of bookstores on wheels, or bookstores in a van ... :)

Am excited this idea for the WUaS Press and the WUaS Corporation in particular.

Costs to bring down in such vans ... besides fuel?

How much revenue could such vans generate in other ways (deliveries, package service?) - in addition to book sales?

Am excited too in not only how a related WUaS fleet of ambulance vans could become not only mobile hospitals, but also especially for robotics and surgery or tele-robotic surgery #5G #5GAmbulance and more in a #RealisticVirtualEarthForSurgery re https://twitter.com/Albert_Gasso/status/1100672146668482560 ~
