50,000 Monkeys at 50,000 Typewriters Can't Be Wrong

i remember it as though it were a meal ago

  • Uncategorized

Couple of announcements:

  • I’m stunned, but thrilled that my autographed 1st edition of Dancing Barefoot went for over 400 bucks on eBay. Even better was how excited the buyer was to have the book!
  • I saw that another guy has put up a signed first edition auction, of his own. So if you want one that’s signed, and you don’t need it personalized, it’s a good opportunity for ya. It’s authentic. He was one of the first buyers to order a bulk order from me a few months ago.
  • I’m equally stunned and thrilled that my Borg9 shirt did so well, too. I have a few more of those, and that auction got quite a few bids, so I’ll probably put up another one.
  • My friend and former roommate, Chris Hardwick, is performing a 12 minute Rock Opera based on Tron tonight. I saw it on Sunday night, and it’s one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen in my life.
  • My schedule for LosCon this Friday and Saturday has been finalized, and I added all the details on the Conventions page. I am particularly excited about my reading on Friday afternoon.
  • I found some copies of my book this morning. I’ll bring them to LosCon to sign and sell. Lots of people have e-mailed asking if there is any chance they can get one, so if there are any left after the con, I’ll put up a dutch auction.
  • My favorite hockey team, the Los Angeles Kings, are currently sitting atop the Pacific (Smythe) Division!!
  • On Monday Tuesday, I will have an epic announcement.

I don’t know how much rewrite I’m going to get done today . . . we have a lot of preparation to do for Thursday, and I feel guilty writing while Anne does stuff around the house. I’ll post whatever I get done.

    i dunno, 400 bucks for a book is a lot of dough. i think i’d be worried about the amount of influence i had if a book of mine reached that sort of sum at e-bay. maybe i just see a terrorist hiding behind every lamp-post…

    Congrats, Wil! I have yet to read the book but judging by everyones comments and this lame website, it sounds like a winner. This is only the tip of the iceberg,right Wil? You are a very good writer judging from your rewrites and observances chronicled in what has become to me the best blog of anyone. Congratulations on what is certainly a high achievement.

    Is the epic announcemant winning a Kia hatchback…?
    Well, probably not. But I’ve always wondered about the “Wil Wheaton Car of Whimsy Drive” and it’s results, as that was how I found this site (ha, does that count as a negative hit?).
    Whatever the EPIC announcement, it *sounds* good, and I’m happy for you.
