Buy a book, help start an aspiring author's career
------------------------
Okay, so, here's the deal: I'm linking my amazon wishlist here
If you want your name put on the contributors list in the front of 'Collectivity' then buy
me a book from this list. I'd prefer it if you buy one of the used books (in the case
where it says that there are used books available) since they are less expensive for you
and I hate killing trees.
This is the list of all the books which are resources that I want to help me write
'Collectivity' better. Whatever you guys don't buy me I'm gonna have to buy myself cause
I need all these books for reference to make my book as accurate as I can, but if everyone
on my friends list spends on average $15 then it would cover all the books.
I have 0% doubt that my book will get published because I know people who are good friends
with publishers and owe my mother a favor, so even if the book wouldn't get published via
merit (yeah, right) it will get published. So you don't have to sweat that.
Your name will go higher on the list based on how much you spend on the book(s) and you
have until September to buy me one (or more) if you want on the list. I'm going back to
Illinois in September and secluding myself from everything but a light day job (and nearby
SG events) to write the book in the months before I join the IDF.
I'm going to keep everyone updated on the book's progress and keep dropping excerpts from
it here on my journal but if I get enough support (more than 75% of the books on the list
get bought by SG people) I will also make an official web-site based on the underlying
philosophy of the book which is what most of my efforts are focusing on currently (and why
I don't need these other books just yet).
Please don't order a book before you tell me which one you want to order in case I get
someone else who was going to order that one. (Note that I have 17 people on my friends
list and 23 books listed so their shouldn't be any overlap).
Book orders should be sent to my mother's house here:
3741 NW 59th Place
Gainesville, Florida
32653
If you have some problem with this idea then by all means: don't order me a book. It
won't hurt my feelings if for some reason you don't. I just think this is a damn cool
idea personally since SG is the target audience of this book. If you have a question
about why any given book is on the list then ask about it and I will explain, each one was
carefully chosen.
Sugar and Spice,
Jae
