Title Clarification

highpointscover

I have received a couple emails in the last 24 hours asking me to clarify the difference between my forthcoming book “HIGH POINTS AND LOWS” and a book I had previously been advertising as coming out soon: “COKE ON THE ROCKS”.

They are the same book.

My publisher felt that the title “Coke on the Rocks” (a) didn’t give a strong enough sense of what the book was about, and (b) would likely be construed as a drug reference.

The first essay in the book is still one called “Coke on the Rocks”, but the title is now history. I appreciate the kind words from those of you who really liked the “Coke” title, but my publisher’s concerns were valid and I’m very happy with our new title.

    Thanks Austin for the link! Would love to know more about your book. How did u come up with the premise and what is the main focus of your book?

    Thanks, Brenda. The best summary I can give for the book is probably the copy under “books” on the site. The main focus, I suppose, is a call for authenticity… in both life and faith… and the book chronicles how that is so much easier said than done. I’d love for you to read a copy and give me your take.
