Bwahahahahaaa. I'm not famous enough.

Also, not rich enough to be oochingmayed. This entire project is still very much running in the red. Absolutely in the black when it comes to positive feedback, way in the red for any hint of profit.

Kevin Brownlow is actually reading it, he emailed me with a found typo!

You know, with the 8-10 people, excluding me, who read and combed through the damn thing, I am shocked at how many little nitpicks are in there. I'll be revising the file after Labor Day and uploading a corrected version.

2 copies are up on amazon to be had and we'll see how long they sit there.

I wished I had been able to proof read it for you (no way I could have: no time). I am cursed with finding typos and errors.

"oochingmay" is my new favorite word

Ooh, does that mean that, like baseball cards, anyone who as the "error" version will see the value of their copy skyrocket?

No, I think like the Chrysler "K" car, devaluation begins immediately.

Well, blurb f*cked up the latest order of books.

There was a printing error and the replacement books will not show up until mid-next week.

So, for the event tomorrow I will have 10 copies on hand.

I have no idea how many people will be at the store and I'm sick to death that people are going to show up and come away with nothing to show for it.

I know LSPE was planning on buying a copy at Larry Edmunds. Anyone else?

My only advice is to get there early, or not. I'm furious and there is nothing I can do about it.

I will be in LA again over Labor Day weekend with the other 10 or more books.

If you decide it's not worth the risk to show up I'm going to be totally OKAY with this. The last thing I want to do is waste people's time on a Saturday night when you can be doing something else.

Is mercury retrograde or something, it's been this kind of a week for me. The good part was not getting laid off, the bad part was now I am so overworked I'm going to have to start working late or weekends to keep up.
