Cool Rob, congrats on your release! I stickied this post, I think we can leave it up there for a week or so. I just ordered my copy, looking forward to getting it!

[Dire 51]

What an awesome journey it's been. But it pales in comparison to the destination.

I'll be getting mine ASAP, you can bet your laurels on that. ^_^

Thanks Mike! And thanks again for contributing.

Thanks raindog! I appreciate it!

Thanks for everything Rob! It's very much appreciated!

Just bought mine. I was going to post yesterday to see if it was nearly done, really been waiting for it. Did you ever come to a decisiion regarding the question about signed copies?

[Dire 51]

Yes, I did... at the moment, it's not feasible, but that may change in the future. If anyone wants an autograph but ordered before I started doing them (like yourself), we can work something out. ^_^

Thanks for ordering!

This book sounds like solid awesome. I'll definitely get this book a.s.a.p. and wolf it down.

[Dire 51]

Why thank you.

[rbudrick]

Wow! Great to see it finally released. Will it ever be available on other sites, like Amazon?

Congrats!

-Rob

[Dire 51]

Maybe, if I can scrape up the cash for an ISBN #. I'm not concerned about it at the moment, though.

Thanks!

Just a quick notice: I may be putting in an appearance at Momocon 4 in Atlanta next month to talk about the book... if anyone here plans to attend, I look forward to meeting you (and I'll be happy to sign your copy of the book should you have one).

Just don't look for it on the flyers and guest lists... it's already been printed, so you won't see me mentioned.

I got the book Saturday and finished it up Sunday after a few good reading sessions. Highly recommended. I really enjoyed all of it - it was even more interesting than I thought it would be reading about someone else's life and experiences with a hobby that I hold so dear. It even inspired me to try and compile some of my own gaming stories and lore! Well worth the cost...I think it's a neat addition to my gaming library. Congrats on the excellent book!

[Dire 51]

Thanks a lot! I'm really glad you enjoyed it.

Yeah what he said. It is really good and I'm just about to read it again. Being one of those people who didn't grow up then and wanting to know the history, thanks for all the insightful knowledge.

This rules so very much! I'm glad you guys are enjoying Rob's awesomeness!

And hey, if you want to recommend the book to anyone else... please do so! We're hoping to spread this thing mostly by word of mouth, so any help that we can get to promote it will be much appreciated. ^_^

You're welcome, and I'm glad you're enjoying it.

To echo Mike's post, word of mouth is pretty much the only way we have at the moment to promote this. I am working on a few other ideas, but nothing concrete at the moment.

[Dire 51]

Sadly, I will not be appearing at Momocon this month, due to yet another major upheaval in my life. In fact, I won't be online much for the remainder of the month either for the same reason. Or even in the state of Georgia much longer.

So, anyone know of any gaming events coming up in the New England area that I might be interested in attending?

BTW, thanks to all that have bought a copy of the book so far. I'd love to hear your feedback if you'd like to share it (thanks to those that already have, of course).

[PDorr3]

Any chance to get a sample story of lore on your website to read?

[Dire 51]

That's certainly not out of the question... I may have to implement that when I have time. In the meantime, you can check out a preview here, plus the roughs for a few of the stories are linked earlier in this thread.

I refuse to make any more announcements like this one. If anyone here is going, I may very well see you there!

[Dire 51]

Been a few days, but I'm back.

Momocon was great. I really enjoyed it, and getting to be on the retrogaming panel was a great experience. Too bad most people wanted to ask questions about retro PC titles and (oddly) new stuff.

Hopefully I sold a few people on the book too.
