Thanks Tori. I hope you enjoy it. And don't worry, I'll always stand by my words. I'm just content with the fact that I stuck to my principles and wrote something different and unique, instead of the usual Hollywood dreck, which would have been so much easier.

hey, don't be so quick to make fun of hollywood dreck, because you may lump my book into that.. Although, I believe that it is more an overactive imagination, the one everyone has said I've always had since childhood. When I get closer, I'll start one of these threads and tell you how I came up with the idea.

Thanks, AuthorHouse wrote it up for me.
And just because something is 'Hollywood' doesn't necessarily mean it's dreck, it just seems like that's the way it's been heading lately, in literature and everything else.

I just recieved my copy in the mail. So to answer Airborne's question, I guess it takes about 4-5 business days to recieve your copy.
I have to admit, holding my book in my hands for the first time was a strange experience. Hopefully it's an experience I will get used to.

PS, I recieved Mitchell's Book today, so I will start reading that one now. How long can I expect before I get your book? I ordered it from the publisher.

Look forward to reading the review, and like I said, I'm always up for a Q+A.
"How long can I expect before I get your book? I ordered it from the publisher."
I answered that up above: 4-5 business days (at least that's how long it took to receive my copy).

As my final act of publicity for Augmented Reality, I'm posting a review of the book in the ONE forum it isn't already mentioned in.

Thanks again Mitch. For those who haven't checked out the review (and judging by the low view count, most of you haven't) click here.
There might be a Q+A in the works over at Lit. Nothing's for sure yet, but I'll keep you guys updated.
Also, sorry I've been dragging my feet on putting up the webpage, as soon as it's up and running I'll post a link here. Any suggestions for what you'd like to see on the webpage?

I liked the book for its austere originality. So whatever you do, don't give us a website we've seen a hundred times before. Do something audacious and original.
Unless you're also an artist, grsites.com can help you with logos and graphics and etc.
Everyone seems to like my website and that's definitely due to the original content online, not any synopsis of the book or boring about the author information. (Though I did that too)
If you want to use my review you can, though I'd probably edit my criticism out first. haha

I wasn't really thinking about putting too much into the webpage aside from some basic info and links to reviews. But now that you mention it, I did have an idea for tying in the webpage with the book; as though it were written by one of the characters. Maybe Zoonenberg?
Can you recommend any good, cheap web-designers?
