I’m giving away books!

Pretty soon, there will be 3,000 copies of I’d Rather Be in the Studio! The Artist’s No-Excuse Guide to Self-Promotion in my home. I’ve already sold 1/10th of those! So, I’m hoping the supply dwindles quickly–enough so that I have to reorder by June 1. That’s my goal.

In the meantime, I’ll be giving away some books from time to time on this blog.

My first giveaway is going to the person who leaves the 3000th comment on this blog. Of course, you don’t know how many I currently have, but let’s just say it shouldn’t take long.

Isn’t it nice how the 3000 books match up with the 3000 comments?

Whether I win the contest or not, I know I need to read that book, so I’ll definitely be getting a copy as soon as I can — Congratulations!

What a great promotion! If I don’t win my copy, I will buy one for sure. All that wisdom distilled into a book is well worth it.
