Ceaseless self-promotion


I wrote about part of my comic art book collection today at Comic Book Resources for my friend Chris Mautner, who's a real journalist in Pennsylvania. Anyone who'd like to see the original photos can click through to my Flickr site for the closeups that I used to write the captions.

That was really fun! And it's always nice to see a copy of Disney's "The Illusion of Life" on a shelf. Oh, and I think I spotted Barry Windsor-Smith's Opus there, too.

Nice!

Yup, absolutely correct. However, I need to get a copy of your new book to add to the piles.

How do you know about that? I haven't even started the big media rounds. Well, unless you're reading the GNLIB-L list serv - I did mention it there!

And you're sweet to want one, too. It is up on Amazon and whatnot now, so it shouldn't be too hard to find. :)

I did in fact see your post on the GNLIB list, but here's your chance to do your own Ceaseless Self Promotion! C'mon tell us about it.

Ack! I can't! I have to make sure stock is flowing in as many sources as possible before I really start talking it up. Right now there's a discount issue at Ingram and I don't think Baker & Taylor is even listing it yet. So I need to wait 'til early November.

Sorry, sorry, sorry!
