Amazon Restocks
Nov 27th
Just a quick note that Amazon now has “gobs” more books available, so feel free to keep ordering ;-) No pressure, of course!
Also, thanks to John Mudd for posting the first Amazon review. Amazon reviews really, really help so feel free to add yours once you get your copy of the book!
Blog Marketing: A New Hope
Nov 26th
As any regular reader knows, I’m rather random at times. So this should come as no surprise.
Amazon Sold Out!
Nov 25th
I don’t actually know how big Amazon’s first shipment of Blog Marketing was, and I’m sure they had to fill pre-orders out of their first shipment, but it looks like they’ve sold out.
The website says:
Availability: Usually ships within 3 to 5 weeks. This item will arrive after December 23. For delivery after the 23rd, we recommend FREE Super Saver Shipping on orders over $25.
Earlier today it was 3 copies, then 1, now this. Very cool, thanks to everyone who bought! Feel free to keep ordering, though, as Amazon’s pretty on-the-ball with shipping and I’m checking to see when their next shipment will actually arrive now :)
If you want the book sooner, drop me an email and you can order it directly from me or from a soon-to-be-announced retail partner.
Blog Marketing Arrives!
Nov 25th
Crazy, crazy. My first copy of my first book arrived on Monday. I was at the local university when I got it and it was such an insane experience. I mean, I only know a handful of peopel who’ve written real books and I really look up to them.
It’s weird to think that I’ve written one now. Absolutely crazy. I mean, it’s been nearly a year since my agent first asked me about the idea, so you’d think it would have sunk in…
But it still hasn’t. It sits behind me and every once and a while I just turn around and look at it, unbelievingly.
John Mudd wrote the first review I’ve seen and it’s generally positive. He notes that a chunk of the advice isn’t new and is available elsewhere on the blogosphere for free… Which is true.
But, if people can find the info themselves, they probably don’t need the book.
Anyways, I’m still crazed-assed busy here, but it felt weird to HAVE the book, HAVE people reviewing it and NOT be blogging about it :|
Have a great weekend everyone!
ps: Amazon has just about sold out their first shipment (no, I’m guess it wasn’t 5000 books), so make sure that if you plan to order from Amazon you do it quick:
Books Arriving…
Nov 18th
I’m getting reports from around the web of books arriving on reviewers doorsteps… Crazy. I don’t have mine yet. Maybe I should post an “unpacking ritual” post when I receive it? ;-)
