About meI am a freelance writer and publisher originally from Amesbury, Massachusetts. I am the owner and publisher of Obert Publishing, a small independent publishing business specializing in helping new authors and groups to self-publish and market their work. Obert Publishing operates under the imprint Pear Tree Publishing.

About my libraryI love to read. When I was growing up, we had a library in my house. I started just looking at the pictures, then reading the descriptions under those pictures. Soon I was reading everything, especially science. I started to collect my own little library, mostly science and science fiction. Throughout my school days, I was always checking out the Amesbury school and town libraries to see what was new. Even more so today, my Haverhill library card is well worn. I read even more now than I did then. Today, the range of topics is even wider. I still love science and science fiction but I now read and study other subjects such as engineering, business and history.

Mr. Obert,

I really enjoyed your book "The Next Harvest... Vineyards & Wineries of New England". I live in Iowa and hope to get out to see some relatives next year and take advantage of your very thorough catalog of wineries in the New England area. I especially like the maps and personal notes about the wineries and the owners. I am adding my review to LibraryThing this afternoon. Sorry for the delay.

Hi Chris, yeah, I just bought my copy too. Haven't even received it yet. But I did read an excellent op-ed piece by Kessler in the WSJ-EU (16july09) and got interested. Kessler pointed out the close correlation between the recent stock market rally (which continued yesterday) and the Fed's efforts to boost money supply. Bottom line: when the Fed prints dollars the stock market goes up and vice versa. Kessler called this: The Bernanke Market.

Per Kessler's suggestion I've started to follow the release of the weekly money supply figures (every Friday). Follow the link below...

All Zee Best, TCW
