Internet Famous in Print!

Internet Famous is finally available in print, through Amazon.com. Currently, they’re selling it for full price ($24.99), but I’ve heard through other authors that once it’s also available through other bookstores, Amazon will most likely discount that to compete. Of course, it could take up to five more weeks for other bookstores to start carrying it, so if you don’t want to wait, you’ll have to pay full price.

I’m working on international distribution at the moment. The issue I’m running into is shipping costs. For international priority mail, the cost is about $13. But what I’m seeing is that first class mail is nearly that much to most areas (with the exception of Canada) and it can take twice as long. Can international orders be done through Amazon.com? Or through Barnes & Noble’s US website? If anyone knows the answer to this, please let me know!

At some point in the next couple weeks I plan on writing a post outlining the entire publishing process. Until then, feel free to ask any questions you might have in the comments here. And thanks to everyone for their support!

Internet Famous is Finally Here!

The ebook edition of Internet Famous is now available. You can download a free ebook copy if you’re a Twitter user here. Or, if you’d prefer to purchase a copy, you can do so through SmashWords for $5.99. The print edition is set to be released in October.

At some point in the next few weeks, I plan to write an in-depth post about getting to this point.

Well, today’s the day, as promised. The site for my forthcoming book, Internet Famous, is now live! Head on over to check out info about the book, enter the “Why I Should Be Internet Famous” contest and get updates on the official release date.

You can also become a fan on Facebook (where you can vote in the poll to determine the subtitle of the book) or follow us (me) on Twitter (@internet_famous).

I have to give a giant shout-out to my beta readers (in alphabetical order to be fair): Dan Holloway, author of The Man Who Painted Agniezska’s Shoes (did I spell that right?) and Songs from the Other Side of the Wall and a founding member of Year Zero; Jason Horger, who did a superb job of pointing out the many grammatical and other errors in this book; and George LaCas, author of The Legend of Jimmy Gollihue and founder of Witchy Hat Press.
