GlenPettit 1,716 #26 Posted June 2, 2008 I've also heard second-hand that Mike will be there. Was told that he will be publishing and marketing the book himself thru his own distribution (web site), and will be selling them at the show, and probably not thru a publishing house initially. Really looking forward to that, don't know the price yet, but he'll end up a lot further financially ahead doing his own publishing & distribution, (on his first $22 book, as author he would probably would have earned only 10% or $2.20 at the most).

Curmudgeon 28 #27 Posted June 2, 2008 Just so he has lots of them. I have people asking me to pick one up for them since they can't make it to the show. Better not be a limit on how many one person can buy! LOL I never managed to get my original book signed either, so I'm hoping I can this trip. Cecil is going to have writers cramp just from signing!!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TT-(Moderator) 1,131 #29 Posted June 2, 2008 I'm not too sure of any of this, but I'd bet that Mike will be selling the books through an online site after the show. The WHCC show is supposedly where the book is to debut - not be the only time and place it will be available. :whistle: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Curmudgeon 28 #30 Posted June 2, 2008 I'm not too sure of any of this, but I'd bet that Mike will be selling the books through an online site after the show. The WHCC show is supposedly where the book is to debut - not be the only time and place it will be available. But signed by Mr. Wheel Horse himself? Only at the show I dare say. No doubt there should be a way to purchase them afterwards though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your bringing back old memories mentioning EVL. I haven't heard from him in AGES. I miss the guy and I can't believe he hasn't found RS yet. He would be great on here. I need his email address! Number 10 will HAVE to be interesting. Most of the RS guys have missed a lot of WH "enthusiast history" when it comes to "the show". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
