Everyone who preordered Chronicles of Dubya should get it soon as they were all mailed out on Saturday. The very first order was to an APO of someone heading soon to Iraq, so hopefully it will get there in time. You really don’t want to go to Iraq without my book. I might even give a free copy to my brother and Patriot Xeno when they get their commission on Friday (everyone else, including my family, has to pay full price).
I tried my best to make each autographed copy special, and everyone has a different message written by me (and maybe some different hand-drawn art). I realize I don’t always give enough props to my regular readers and commenters, so I thought this was a good time to show reader appreciation. Also, since the extra money people are paying for the autograph goes to support the troops, there is a lot of pressure on me to give good autographs or otherwise I’m letting our country down. I hope you love what I did when you get them.
I see Amazon and Barnes and Noble have pages up for the book but won’t have them in stock in time for Christmas. Still, I want to remind you of the advantages of ordering direct from NTM Publishing. First, we give you discount prices (especially on multiple orders). Second, it’s the only place to get a signed copy. Third, as those who ordered will soon see, each book is packaged with love by SarahK and hand labeled as such on the box. Finally and most importantly, buying direct puts more money in our pocket, and, the more money I earn, the more time I can devote to blogging.
Well, tell me when you get your copies and what you think. I’ve been wanting to put up a picture of the back cover because I think it’s pretty cool, but I guess it will be a surprise now for everyone who ordered. Also, after you get the book, please put up a nice review on Amazon so everyone knows it’s the best book ever.
Hmm. If you click on my name there, apparently I wrote a number of books on mathematics. I don’t remember that at all, so I must have been totally high when I did it.
Anyway, if you want your books in time for Christmas, order soon. We have another shipment of books coming in, so, unlike certain video game console manufacturers, we should be able to meet demand without any hiccups.
So why does Amazon list you as “Frank, J. Fleming?”
It seems like, with that punctuation, your name should be J. Fleming Frank.
That would be a good name if you were a lawyer or, if the J. stood for “Jeeves” a butler.
Would the fact that most of those books were written before you were born have anything to do with your memories of writing them?
Personally, I hardly remember any of the things I accomplished before I was born.
I’m still waiting for a quote on my book… though I’m sure it won’t be in for Christmas. 🙁
I can’t wait for my copy to arrive, I’ll bring it home with me over Christmas and see if it sparks anything interesting amongst the siblings 🙂
Poli,
We’ll get that handled as soon as we can.
Laura,
I remember signing yours. Hope you enjoy it.
You better not have signed mine, I didn’t pay for that.
yay, I can’t wait! I took off half of tomorrow and all of Wednesday (plus I was already off Thursday) just so I could be here when it came. (ok, that’s not quite true, I was taking off anyway, but it’s a happy coincidence, isn’t it?)
I can’t wait either. I figure I’ll circulate a couple of copies around the office. This is a shop filled with sailors and ex-sailors. We all still laugh at fart jokes (sailors never grow up) so Frank’s humor should go over well. The rest of them will go to family. My brother’s bit off a bit of the MSM’s brainwashing, but there’s still hope. He likes funny stuff.
Of course, I keep the autographed copy 🙂
“Jeeves” a butler.
Jeeves is not a butler. He is a gentleman’s personal gentleman. Bertram Wilberforce Wooster would be happy to confirm that.
I got mine Yesterday. As I was bedridden with the flu I do not appreciate you making me laugh so hard. Each page I ended up laughing so hard it hurt my ribs.
Please write something unfunny until I am healthy.
Thank you.
