NEW: Tom's Novel: 'Name of Author by Title of Book'
(08 Dec 2003 at 22:31) |
It's finally up! Here's my book, Name of Author by Title of Book. It was created in the month of November with a bit of editing and graphic design in this first week of December.
I've also placed it on lulu.com for print-on-demand. (I don't make any money off copies that they print; just think of it as a convenient way to get a hard copy.) They've got a pretty cool thing going on there! But I wouldn't recommend ordering a copy there until I get mine, because I'm not sure I did all of the uploading and conversion and margins correctly. I'll let you know when my copy arrives. |

I haven't looked at the words yet, but the cover is quite beautiful! That lulu printer thingy is a very nice idea, I think that I will order one of those (once you give the good word on it). Too much to read on computer monitor... |
I am ordering this book. There is no stopping me. You amaze. I didn't think you could out do the play in three fits, but oh I was wrong... page nine, I think... may just be my favorite thing ever.
Admiring from afar,

wait... asymmetric body building is now taking the cake. i will have to finish the book before i can lavish you with sufficiently informed praise. i apologize for my poor typing i am too enthralled to use shift key now must go.... |
Thanks, Marc and Anonymous fan! |
wow, i've only read like a few pages and i'm excited.
"ponens of my modus"
well i'm glad to see your favorite connective gets an obscured reference :) |
Yeah, there are a bunch of good math jokes in there. ;) |

Reads like Mark Leyner. Good show. |
Thanks Hock, I was sorta going for a Leyner. |

hmm sorry about the multiple posts, my browser was resending data when i hit refresh.... |
The more duplicate praise, the better! |
Yes! Go TU! Your book just got twice as awesome! |
Well, I just downloaded the book, but as I suck at math I won't get much of those jokes. But I definitely will try to read it... |
Tuuur: don't worry, the math jokes will not get in your way! |
I hope that the Mark Leyner-ish-ness doesn't get in the way... |
Maybe you should know that a writer named "Stefano Benni" writes stuff that's exactly what your novel is, and sells a lot here in Italy. Find a good translator, and become famous in the Boot Nation! |
Using 'Boring Boron' as the font for the cover was a nice touch.
I definitely have to print this out so I can read it forever! |
Sadly there are no Tom fonts on the cover at all... that's just Trebuchet MS. |
Boring Boron 4 prez |
optic.bot 4 prez |
You should avoid using the English language anymore. |
Wow, thanks! |
sigh.

2 of many programs that WebTV doesn't support (pdf and tar) ;-(
May I suggest adding a synopsis to your novel's front page? |
You should just need PDF viewing capabilities to see it. |
lol, that is the point - WebTV doesn't have that, and probably never will. Nor the "smart cards" that were promised in the propaganda that never materialized, for which we have a portal.
but, at school I have access to them new-fangled kompewtrrs, so I will check it out there ;-) |

<b>YOU GOT SERVED
</div> |
Yeah, that didn't work. What did I supposedly get served with? |
Hah. Read a novel as a result of a songfight. Wasn't expecting that. Also wasn't expecting it to be good. Surprised. Reminds me of a more energetic Adams. . . Love the time travelling lawyer.
Also, do more songfights.
Cheers.

It's easy to diss topia when you don't live there. |
Wow, thanks Spinlock!
I also wrote a second novel that I think is better than the first. You can find it at tom7.org/novel2/. I mostly do Album-a-Day stuff, but since I've been so slow doing that maybe I can get more into songfight, we'll see... |
my crotch has strange sores growing on it. |
is an ideal day purse with lots of space web hosting as well as enterprise items. And it's versatile. At work or even about the holiday you will be regarded as a lady of favor with this bag on your own shoulder.

Going back and reading this again produced a strange realization because 2014 did not give us a Mr Hemiverse competition. That year seemed so far off back then... |
Hey Tom, just letting you know that you still rock, and your old stuff still rules. |
Thanks for perusing my old things and for telling me, Someone! (: |
