Dragon*Con 2002 wrap-up
I wrote it and posted it on the Reel Shame news page. It will be permanently archived on the "older news" pages, once I figure out what's going on with the Blogger archive for that site.
We have gotten some good responses to the book, including a link from one of the biggest entertainment news sites out there (Dark Horizons), but as yet no quotable quotes. The book has only been "out" for a week but I'm ready for some press, dammit.
We gave away between 60 and 80 copies of the book while we were in Atlanta, not in vain I hope. I keep saying to myself that the best advertising for the book is the book itself, but it's tough to keep a positive frame of mind when the Paypal account sits empty. Fortunately the Amazon sales rank keeps creeping up (54, 585 as of this weekend). If we sell every remaining copy through Amazon we will just make back our money when you figure in the publicity efforts, so at the very least our investors (the good people at Capital One Visa and The Virtual Quilt Company) will have made something from our efforts.
