See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

That's fabulous news, Allyson. I'll be pimping your book to my mom; I'm not sure how many she'll get for her bookstore, but she is a genius book saleswoman and I guarantee that however many she gets, she'll sell and then end up needing to order more copies due to other customers eavesdropping on the people she's pimping the book at.

And now I'm wondering how many of my family and non-Buffista friends will get me copies of your book for my birthday and Christmas this year, with little notes saying, "This sounded so right for you!"

Also? You would be delicious on Jon Stewart.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I wish my MiL still worked in a school library, because I'd pimp the book to her like mad. Right now she works in a prison library, and I'm not sure it's quite the demographic your book will appeal to.

I just pre-ordered Allyson's book. And I'm planning to pimp it to, say, everyone in fandom when the actual publication date gets closer.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Holy ass, shrift. I wanted to ask for your help but felt bad about being all burdeny.

THANKS!!! (interrobang happy)

Also, my editor just asked if I sent out my cyber army, because my sales rank is like, 2800 or something (which doesn't really mean anything, I've discovered).

I said that this was just the immediate cyber family.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I said that this was just the immediate cyber family.

The ripples are starting to spread. I just sent out a link to one of my family's yahoo groups as well as a list of RL friends here in town.

Oh, I'm so pimping it to my flist, Allyson, although I'm sure Shrift will get more coverage.

I haven't quite pre-ordered it, since I don't get paid for another couple of weeks, but it's in the "save for later" shopping cart at Amazon.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm not pre-ordering, because I want to walk into an actual book store and pick up a pile of actual books. That's OK, right?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm totally buying it in a bookstore. At least once.

Ha! It's so the opposite of a burden. I like it when my friends do cool things that I can brag about!

And now that I'm thinking about it, it's not too early to put up a link on the front page of the Buffy Fiction Archive and any other relevant website I run.

Anyone who reads my LJ is going to hear about it a lot, I'm sure.
