And now I whore out my friends...

This is a call for help from everyone. Since A Constant Suicide is now out and printed, with a delay from Amazon that was MY FAULT, the word needs to get out. I've had about a dozen people read it and say it was "worth my time," as one person, who will remain nameless, put it.

If you've read it, go to Amazon and leave a review of it. Even if you didn't order it from there and have gotten through it, hop on and leave your thoughts on the book so potential readers can know what to expect. Please, stay away from short ones like "Krans sucks/rules!"

Also, if you live somewhere and think your local bookstore should carry it, bug the crap out of them until they do. But please, no extortion or anything else that could constitute a crime. I can't afford attorneys for everyone.

Tell your friends about it, at least the people we hang out with that know how to read. Point them towards www.aconstantsuicide.com, get a few people together and play "The Official A Constant Suicide Drinking Game." I figure, why write a book about getting drunk, falling down and killing yourself without a drinking game?

If you're really feeling ambitious, and not afraid of feeling like a pushy bastard like I do right now, post links on blogs you regularly go to. (Besides this one of course.)

This book was built from the ground up with help from friends, so why should the marketing be any different.

Anyway, love you all and thanks for the help.
