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'm just trying to tell you that we have nothing in common besides both of us liking your penis.

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

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.

I'll buy at least one in a bookstore, so I can babble at the clerk. But not the last copy on the shelf, because I'm a guaranteed purchaser and that's still a potential new audience from that store.
That made sense in my head, ok?
