My eBook is Coming - Wanna Advertise In It?

It's coming!

On June 15th, no less.  Global Wind Day.

Lets hope it doesn't blow.  (like the wind, get it?)

(I promise the book is better than that joke...)

I'm putting the final touches on the eBook and it will be going live on Friday, June 15th.  It will be available on Smashwords (and probably on Amazon) for $1.99.  At just under 10,000 words, it's a great deal.

And for bloggers and other viewers, I am giving you a chance to advertise on it.

As I mentioned, I was thinking of having a blogroll of sorts (probably called "Recommended Reading," depending on who is interested) as a Preface.  If you are interested, here are the details:

- I'm at 100,000 views a month now on the blog (trending upward), so I'm hoping SEO and word of mouth is going to make this fairly popular.
- Ad space on this blog sells for $6-12 per week, and this is going to be a permanent fixture in this book from Day 1 onward.
- A text ad with a link to the site of your choice will sell for $20, and space is limited.  I'm hoping to keep it to one to two ePages, so I'm not looking for too many people.

If interested, please email me at lostinidaho@ymail.com.  Thanks for the consideration, and don't forget to buy the book!

Sometimes It's Just All About Me (plus a giveaway)

Don't worry.  This isn't as egotistical a post as the title may lead you to believe.  This post *IS* all about me, but other people are involved as well.

Over the course of 8 days, between visiting my boys and my first week as a traveling salesman, I have put about 3600 miles on my car.  It's taking a much-deserved break in my driveway, recovering from the chaos, and prepping for a Monday drive.

Life on the road has been fun these past few days, and I think I'm going to really enjoy this job.  More to come on it later.   While I was gone, some interesting me-centric things happened.

Over at A Beer For the Shower I was immortalized in animated awesomeness.  My nightmares of being abducted my LDS Extremists and brainwashed/converted has somewhat become a reality.  I am now a Missionary going door-to-door preaching about 'The Book of Idaho.'

And I love it.  If you're not reading that blog, you're missing out on some good stuff.  And 'The Book of Idaho?'  If I ever publish myself, that's the name of Book 1.  Props will be given, of course.

Continuing my courtship with Lady E, I ordered a Mammo shirt from her online store a few weeks back.  I mean, I love boobs and want to do whatever I can to support them (heh) so I saw this as a good cause.

After a month of waiting (and a strongly-worded email to Cafepress) it finally came.  Actually... two came.  It's an awesome shirt, and I love being an advocate for women keeping their ta-tas healthy, so I'm going to share the lovin!

The shirt in question is a Charcoal color, size XL.  If interested, please leave a comment of "I LOVE BOOBS!" below.  Limit one entry per person this way.  To get a second entry, please tweet a link to this post and include the hashtag #Mammo in the tweet.  I'll close the contest on June 30, and announce the winner July 1st.

Example:  I love boobs!  Come support the #Mammo cause, and maybe win a t-shirt from @Spud_slinger!  http://bit.ly/lyaoIE

Yay for boobies! Yay for ABftS! And yay for me!

p.s. - If you want a different color/size, please go to Lady E's Cafepress site.  They also have shirt designs for women, and much much more!!!
