Popular "Ghosts and Spirits" Book Now on iPage, Returnable for Wide Book Store Distribution

WASHINGTON, DC, September 14, 2010 (Press-News.org) Ghosts have the ability to "haunt" in any bookstore around the country. Rob Gutro's popular paranormal non-fiction book "Ghosts and Spirits: Insights from a Medium," is now available on iPage, and allows any book store to purchase and stock. This change allows for widespread in-store distribution without concern of returns. This widened distribution channel has opened for the book just in time for the fall and Halloween season, when paranormal books are extremely popular.

"Ghosts and Spirits: Insight from a Medium" is available in paperback through Barnes and Noble.com and Amazon.com. It is also available as an E-book through the publisher: Virtualbookworm.com and as a Kindle book on Amazon.com. In its first week of publication, the book rated #30 in popularity of paranormal books at Amazon.com.

After enjoying months of popularity available as an on-line order book only, Gutro's book is will be listed on the Ingram I-page as of August 28, 2010 and will now be returnable with a 55% discount, just in time for the Halloween season. "Stores can now stock the book without concern," said Mr. Bobby Bernshausen, of Virtualbookworm.com Publishing, College Station, Texas.

Ingram's ipage is an online search, order, and account management site that can act as a comprehensive source for complete title information, stock status, ordering, publicity, the latest industry news, and more. The ipage has become a necessary e-business tool for the book industry. For many booksellers across the country, it is the one tool they use every day and ipage Basic is free to Ingram customers.

"Allowing stores to stock the book makes it available to a tremendous audience," Gutro said. "I always go in book stores and look for new releases, and I hope that many people find this educational and helpful if they've lost a loved one."

Gutro's book has proven successful at book signing events at Barnes and Noble in Annapolis, Md.; Hard Bean Coffee Cafe, Quincy, Mass.; at an event for the Cape And Islands Paranormal Research Society on Cape Cod, Mass.; Karmafest, Baltimore, Md.; and a fund-raiser for the Largo-Kettering Library, Md.

Although recognized more for his work at NASA about hurricanes, Gutro wrote "Ghosts and Spirits: Insights from a Medium" based on his inherited ability to communicate with Earth-bound ghosts or spirits. His abilities became evident to him when his late grandfather materialized in front of him. Since then, he lost his fear of ghosts and spirits and gained insight into the afterlife. Gutro even lived in a house that turned out to be haunted.

For people who enjoy television ghost hunting programs, haunted houses or want to know the who, what, where, when and whys of ghosts and spirits, this book will provide insight and answers to better understand them.

Readers will learn the difference between ghosts and spirits and the ways they attempt to communicate with the living. Gutro will also share true stories of paranormal encounters submitted from his friends around the U.S. After each story, Rob explains the encounter and what the entity is trying to communicate. The book also highlights the author's experiences on ghost walks in various cities or in historic places around the U.S.

"The purpose of the book is to educate people about what happens after their loved ones pass," Gutro said.
