I Hate Self-Promotion. But Please Buy My Book. Updated - Book Signing in LA.

Wobbie

there"s other stuff I learned. I'll get back to ya.

Look, my self promotion whoring is back. Because I've got an interview in Huffington Post. Really, I'm not making that up.

Please buy my book. It makes a perfect Thanksgiving hostess gift.

whoring, marketing.....what's the difference?

I finished this book and would give it two thumbs up......if it were a movie. Speaking of which, are you in negotiations?

Please post a link for the HP interview.....I'll make an exception for you and read that rag )

Enkidu

The link is there, in blue. I'll post it again though. You can leave a nice review somewhere if you'd like. No movie deal yet. Maybe Lifetime (blech) but I'd like to do better than Lifetime.

are you trying to say I might be too old to recognize a link???? I saw the link but assumed it was the place to buy "the perfect Thanksgiving hostess gift." you know.....more whoring

seriously, peeps, buy this book......support a good PJ fan and have a good laugh while you're at it.

Enkidu

Thanks, Rob. Yes, everyone should buy this book. And here's another link - it's not about buying the perfect Thanksgiving hostess gift. It's about TV writing. Whoring whoring whoring...

Bump. (Also, PM sent) :-)

Thanks for using the word 'sucky' in your writer's digest post. I find that this word is not used enough in our modern day lexicon.
Sucky.
It says so many things, so easily.

(No sarcasm here. I am a sucky writer that this was not clear and I feel compelled to point this out in a postscript.)

did anybody find out if the book is any good...I know it must be but just checking with you...

F Me In The Brain

Yes, I enjoyed it very much and the subject matter was not my normal read. Great writing, great flow, and lots of humor injected throughout!

oftenreading

It's getting 4.5 stars out of 5 on Amazon, with 25 reviews.

By why, oh why, in her Amazon bio does she not mention that she's a 10C member???

I think the book is genius. Oh wait, I wrote it.

It's funny. And sad. If you go on my website you can read the intro. It's about switched sperm - how is sperm not funny?

And oftenreading is right - why didn't I mention I'm a 10C member? That would have driven up book sales by the 1000s.

If you came out against Crowd Sources Concerts, ones in Queens specifically, you would undoubtedly receive some additional press.

oh thanks for review..

Don't be put off by the pink cover - it's not really chick lit.

OK, my wife does a monthly book club. They decided to make December a couples meeting. Honestly now, am I going to get my ass kicked (figuratively) if we go with this book? If so, she can just hang onto it for one of the upcoming meetings where it will be all women.

It's not like any of the guys are neanderthals, but we'd all probably prefer to get together to play cards or watch a hockey game rather than discuss literature.

F Me In The Brain

Hahaha. Tough question. I think there are certainly more 'manly' books but it is funny and everyone likes funny. As I already admitted the topic is not something I normally would buy....but it was written by one of the Faithful and I ended up laughing a lot. There are many items here that will spur interesting discourse as well.
I would say go for it with the club --- hey, at worst it will double the sales associated with the club's reading of this book, and that is a good thing for the author.
