Couple of things. No winners in the above mentioned drawing. Sold a fair number of books during that time, but no entries. Bummer. I mean it saved me a bunch of money what with shipping a book to the UK costing about thirteen dollars, but still. Bummer.
Anyway...
New bit of news regarding
Boomerang.
All royalties from sales of
Boomerang from October 8th through November 24th (that would be Thanksgiving) are going to the
Life is good Playmakers Foundation. If you are at all aware of the Life is good company you know they are more than a t-shirt manufacturer. They are a positive force with a great mission and the Playmakers Foundation does wonderful work with kids who are in life challenging situations.
So if you haven't already checked out
Boomerang and are interested in doing so, know that anywhere between 35% and 60% of your purchase of $0.99 will go right to the foundation. Paperback sales are included in this too, with my share of those being just over $1.00 a copy on a $13.99 paperback (or $12.95 plus shipping for an
autographed copy from me). I am aiming for at least a $75 donation, which means about 150-160 books if the percent sold in the various venues remains the same as what I've been experiencing lately.
Thanks.
Alan
Oh, and thanks to whoever boosted my karma lately! Quite a jump and quite a surprise!
