Best Seller?
NNAOPP now may be one of the best sellers at Bruce Smith Drug Store in Prairie Village, KS. I stopped by yesterday and noticed they were out of stock. I asked the manager if she wanted more books, and she said, "Yes. Why don't you bring me six more. They're seem to be going pretty fast."

Testimonials continue to pour in:
Hi Chuck,
I cannot tell you how much I am enjoying
your book! My boss loaned me his copy, and I cannot put it
down. I already want to dog-ear and highlight passages, so I thought
I'd better order one of my own. Then, I thought of friends who would
laugh their ass off just as I have been while reading this book. I
like your deal of 5 copies with free shipping. Any chance you'd sign them
before sending? It would be a treat to give signed copies to
friends.
BTW, have you read Confederacy of
Dunces by John Kennedy Toole? Your turn of phrase, or perhaps just the
amount of laughter while reading it, somehow reminds me of that fine book.
Bless you for writing NNAOPP!
We all need the laughter in our lives!

What Others Are Saying About Nude Nuns and Other Peculiar People
Appeals to Elderly Lesbians
I just received this 'book review' from my 91-year old aunt. She is a voracious reader and I sent her a copy when I purchased mine. She is a lesbian and I was afraid she might be offended.... Well, this is what she said....
I always meant to tell you the book Nude Nuns & Other Peculiar People was one of the best funny books I've read in years. What a guy. Loved the Nude Nuns story. Thanks again for sending it.
Provides Health Benefits
I love this book! I keep a copy next to my toilet. I have suffered from a medical problem (locked bowels) for almost 30 years. I have been reading a chapter each morning at the "appropriate" time and, amazingly, it has completely cured my medical problem. I've lost track of the LOL moments.
Recently I have had several nights where I wake up at 2:30 unable to go back to sleep. I have turned on the light and read chapters from your book and have laughed out loud so much I scare my cat.
Reviewer's Choice
Chuck Wells has a gift for descriptive phrases that keeps this collection of mirthful tales rolling along. My continuous chuckles and outright laughter while reading this book in an airport caused a number of people to give me worried looks. The zany stories, characters, and antics described are certifiably true for anyone who grew up in the 1950s and 1960s. This book is a great story of Americana and a hilarious view on life that is rare and perhaps nearing extinction.
Aids Marital Harmony
I absolutely loved everything about your book. I couldn't put it down. I even snapped at my husband for interrupting my reading.
