I might have to figure out a giveaway contest, though :-)

Nothing makes it more real than holding one of these in my hands, folks. My neighbors are probably concerned about all the shouting and jumping around.

I made a book. Holy fucking shit.

Awww, congrats! And jump all you want. Box-o-Books is my favorite holiday.

Thank you!!! Mine too, now :-)

You are like unto book god!

I think I'm a little taller than book god, actually. But I don't mind being mistaken.

HELL YES!!! That book looks delicious. I want to eat it.

Be sure to post the recipe you use!!!

Ima judge yo book by the cover and dub it superfly

Congratulations!! I'd probably start speaking to them in like baby talk or something and try to make them eat cheerios like they were my young. You are free to steal this idea.

I have no Cheerios, sadly; but if I had a pram I'd tuck them into it and push them proudly around the neighborhood.

Groovy! So when does your publisher start sending out ARCs?

[identity profile] snurri.livejournal.com 2008-02-23 02:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks! I know of one that's gone out already, but I don't really know when the blitz begins.

Admit it, you feel like this:

[identity profile] snurri.livejournal.com 2008-02-23 03:01 pm (UTC)(link)
There have been times when I have felt like a little girl in a gingham dress, but this is not one of them :-P

The rainbow works, though.

Great milestone, Dave. I like the idea of a contest, though I'd gladly wait until the publication date and cough up some cold hard cash.

Thanks, Pete! As to the contest, I have to figure out how many copies I really have to give away before I can do something like that for sure. In the meantime I hope no one cancels their pre-orders :-)

Thank you! I am most pleased.

Oh, how wonderful!

I don't think I can imagine how you feel right now. I mean, I can take how happy and excited for you *I* am, double it by lots-and-lots, add the "tangible object in hands" factor, and still not really realize it, no matter how high my result is.

Because I am very much happy and excited for you.

[identity profile] snurri.livejournal.com 2008-02-24 03:27 pm (UTC)(link)
:-) Thank you very much, Nilly. Let me know if it'll be tricky for you to get a copy in Israel; I'll send you one special if so!
