Those in the US who wish to go through me to get their signed copy(I'll have to work things out for our British friends), can do one of two things: Either wait until I know what the exact shipping is(probably a week, when I get my copy and can get it weighed), or you can send a check/money order for the book plus shipping to my PO Box. The shipping appears to be higher than anticipated, so check their website, and figure 150% of their shipping charge...and of course, I'll remit any difference back to you at the same address the book goes to. If it's more, we'll see what the difference is, and how best to work it.

So, those who want to pre-order, do two things:

Send an e-mail to: kaptain-skitzo@comcast.net
Let me know to whom it should be signed, and include your return address.

Send a standard sized letter with either a check or money order for 10.99, plus the probable shipping charges to:

John Linde
P.O. Box 11738
Baltimore, MD. 21206

IF you are one of the people who wants to get your copy from Authorehouse first, and then have me sign it later, you can just order it from them, and drop me an e-mail saying that's what you want to do...and we'll work out the details privately.

Thanks everyone!

Edit: I checked the Authorhouse shipping to me....it's $6.29. Damn this s**t is getting expensive!! So go from there.

Links no work. The ... at the end doesn't continue on like it normally would once you've clicked the link.

I just did a "multiple copy" order, and the shipping is a lot lower. Anyone who wants to pre-order this way, should send me an e-mail ASAP. I'll be placing my order for the first shipment this weekend(based on the # of pre-orders I get).
I'm talking a SEVERE drop in shipping....from the $6+, down to about $1 per copy. Start sending those e-mails now....I'm only going to order the amount of copies that people are willing to commit to.

Whats a book?

It's the things that you dun readed-ed.
You knows, with the squiggly lines and pages that taste good.

Anyway, awesome.
But where's my autographed copy Iggs?
Mind if I call you Iggs?

Have you sent me an e-mail yet? I'm waiting for the first shipment to get to me...and those are already spoken for. I've got a little cash, so I'll probably order another set(I'm getting more e-mails). If you haven't already, send me the e-mail.

Currently, I have 20 copies signed and sold. The shipping charge via USPS is only $2.31(It's been the same for repeated copies). So the total charge per copy(signed, and with a few promo things tossed in) is $14.40, which is still less than if you bought it direct from Authorhouse....($10.99+$6.xx). And you get more for your money. Good Idea

It'll still be a couple weeks before it goes on sale on Amazon.com, and Barnesandnoble.com....and then you are talking even higher prices, because you have to factor in THEIR profit(which is a lot higher than mine, believe me!)

Some reviews have been posted:

It's been available for a month and 2 days, and I've signed and sold 34 copies so far. So far, nothing but good feedback on it. Good Idea
