I confess I actually thought this Gits Ferrari one was quite readable for a quick skim. I too like the way he wove in SARS and 11/9, and I quite enjoyed the writing style, too. I couldn't help thinking it was completely made-up, though -- its just way too apocryphal to be real. I've heard pretty much ALL the anecdotes, some of them many times, over the last 20 years.


Thank YOU!

Keep your eyes out for the sequel coming soon!

I was pretty much buying into the whole deal, up until the part where he gets his pole smoked.

Last week, I passed by a second-hand bookstore in Shi-Da area. They had very nice promotional material advertising your book and it caught my interest, so I went in with the intention of buying a copy. But, they don't have your book in stock. Are you distributing yourself or using a local agent? You might want to make sure stores that are advertising have some stock or are willing to order in for customers.

Now a Free Download: Not SARS Just Sex! The Novel

Thanks, and sorry about that. I came home 6 months ago, to California, to help out my grandmother, and haven't been able to service my single outlet besides Alleycats Pizza- but also call the alleycats before you go there and ask them to hold you a copy. I was just in Taiwan in April and the AC on Lishui had a copy. Ximen AC doesn't have any). Or give me a private message with your contact info and I'll arrange to send you one.

There is always the free e-book I'm offering only here in my signature at forumosa. Why don't you take advantage of it?

Also, many thanks to those of you who have downloaded my book and NOT commented. I've been getting a lot of private mail with exciting feedback on the book. I'm really looking forward to getting this sequel out. It seems that everytime I get the document open, my grandmother needs attending to.

I am printing and distributing the book myself right now. (In Taiwan, I farm it out due to the cheapness) I registered White Monkey LLC as a publishing company, and I bought a block of 10 isbn numbers to register books. Since I don't have other writer's works to publish, I decided to create my own tangible asset.

If some company came along and wanted to distribute the book, I'd do it, but if they only wanted to pay me a small amount, control it, own it and restrict me from doing things with it, then I'd tell them to take a hike, because I have a long term grass roots marketing plan that I believe would serve my lifestyle better.

Fuck money.

If any other writer's out there also want to fuck money, I can print your book for you in small or large runs.

Writer's bitches?

Before you lovingly craft your PM, make like any writer and consider your audience. With all the information at your disposal, is there any possibility that the recipient will open it? Would your time be better employed?

Despite agreeing with a lot of the critics, I did enjoy reading this book. I felt depressed, if a little inspired.

So when's that sequel coming out? I'd like to read that, too. :popcorn:
