We really don't "sell" anything at this point!  The information is free.  The only items which will be offered are two books authored by Dr. Bard, and they are available at internet sites (normally used) at very low prices.  NEW copies can be ordered from this site for SHADOW WOMEN: HOMELESS WOMEN'S SURVIVAL STORIES (Sheed & Ward, 1990) and ORGANIZATIONAL AND COMMUNITY RESPONSES TO DOMESTIC ABUSE AND HOMELESSNESS (Garland, 1994). In the future, we may have special items for sale, but they will all be related to "how to retain a self-sufficient lifestyle" or perhaps T-shirts with logos which are aimed at ending poverty in America.  Dr. Bard hopes to find a new publisher for an updating of her first book (SHADOW WOMEN: )  BUT HER NEWEST BOOK WILL BEGIN HERE!  THE TITLE IS: "THE NEW AMERICAN NOMADS: WHEN YOUR HOME IS NOT A HOUSE."  (copyright 2003) There is also a book ready for publication regarding rural sprawl, ecological destruction, and solutions to associated corruption at the county and town level.

One of the ways Dr. Bard has found as self-employment is to write mystery novels.  The one which is ready for publication is about Finnish culture and a mystery that surrounds an isolated village in Maine where the "old" Karelian culture clashes with mainstream American customs and rituals concerning communication with the dead.  The copyright date is 2000.  The title is "Gravely Speaking." Does anyone know of a Finnish publisher for American readers?
