Non-Weather: So All Israel Shall Be Saved Now on Google Books and at Walmart and VitalSource

This week has been a busy week being the launch week of the publishing of my PhD dissertation, So All Israel Shall Be Saved.

This week, my PhD dissertation is also available on Google Books, VitalSource, at Walmart, and it is back in stock at Amazon after briefly being sold out. It also sold out on Barnes & Noble. For a PhD dissertation and academic title, sales have been off to a great start, and I haven’t even done any massive marketing campaign for it yet!

I also wanted to mention a brief update that I am re-launching my website parkernathan.com in February. I will mainly use it as an outlet to promote my PhD dissertation, my music album, this newsletter, and serve as a virtual rèsumè of my work. Unlike my previous parkernathan.com website, I will not setup a blog over there. All of my content will be my Substack newsletter with weather reports on my WeatherTogether blog.

Thank you all again for reading my newsletter and for joining me in celebrating the launch of the publication of my PhD dissertation!
