    Fantastic – congratulations Wil!
    I’m so thrilled to see you coming into your own and happy I was one of the Wesley Fans from way back when.
    Keep on living your life on your own terms and the hell with the rest of ’em.
    (And if you listen carefully, you’ll hear the sound of distant applause and cheers coming your way from my desk in Chicago.)

    You are just the cutest EVER. And I can’t wait to read it.
    If it’s not terribly tacky of me to comment — I feel like “unflinchingly honest tales” is such a mouthful — what’s wrong with just “unflinching tales”? Where the honesty is pretty much implied? Me, I’d even just go for “Tales of…” and leave off the qualifiers entirely. But, anyway.
    Man, that cover looks just great.

    Ah, shucks! Great cover, just one thing missing. I thot certainly it would include something like” “Forward by…” and so I’m still in suspense and want to know WHO, Wil? WHO??

    Heya Wil. Congrats.
    I don’t know if they did a little p-shopping to the neck, there… it looks like your head may not be attached.
    I’ll be working on the bobblehead animated Gif for the Fark Photoshop Contest.

    I’m glad for you having JAG published and the writing and all, I’m an aspiring author myself (although merely 15 years old).
    I should say it’s my first post here, I found WWdN the day before yesterday (for some weird reason I hadn’t seen it until now) and today I ordered ‘Dancing Barefoot’. I’ll see when I buy JAG 🙂
    About the cover, it’s great, the photo seems to have some kind of aura channeling out a mixture of all sorts of feelings, or so it seems to me.
    Best of luck.

    Sweet!
    Here’s the link to the amazon.ca page. It’s $25.87 CDN at amazon.ca but amazon.com’s $16.87 price is actually $22.88 CDN. If Canadians want to save a whole $3 they can go through the American site.
    At amazon.com I got:
    Customers who shopped for this item also shopped for these items:
    Dancing Barefoot by Wil Wheaton (Author)
    PvP Volume 1 by Scott Kurtz (Author)
    Books from The Baroque Cycle Series.
    The Complete Peanuts by Charles M. Schulz (Author), et al
    Cool.

    Mine’s pre-ordered! I can’t wait to get it! Wil, as an author, do you get to see how many preorders there are?

  25. Dana says:

    That’s right, I thought it was so funny, I posted it twice… or accidentally hit the button twice. ahem.

  26. webgrunt says:
    21 May, 2004 at 11:48 am

    Wow! You look great in that photo! I’m not gay or anything, but I could be, with you.
    😉
    Seriously, you do look very good. 🙂

  27. Chris says:
    21 May, 2004 at 11:51 am

    AWESOME!
    I’ve been waiting for this day. I pre-ordered my copy!
    Also, I’m glad to see you reached your goal with the cancer fund!

    I think you should have used the picture on the upper left-hand corner of this page. 😉

    That cover rawks! How do you do it? Not the talent part. Hell, you were born with that and had the good sense not to waste it. But how do you stay so level headed? You’re so good. You have 92/93 good review on Amazon! And You’re good! I’d be so fat headed I couldn’t get through the door at my favorite pub. They’d have to hand me the Guinness through the door!

    Nice pic Wil…but you look kinda pissed.
    I like it though. It looks like you have just set phasers to “screw the haters”
    Can’t wait to buy it.
    P.S. – I saw Dancing Barefoot in the Barnes and Noble on the drag in Austin this week. They had it in the damn Star Wars section. I took it and placed it on an endcap at the front of the store for you

  32. Chris Salter says:
    21 May, 2004 at 11:56 am

    That’s very exciting Wil!
    But I think we’re all really waiting to hear who’s doing the foreword. 😉
    And yes, the picture is awesome. I’m getting very excited for this book. This is going to be awesome.

    Wil. It looks fucking great. I can’t wait to read your second book.

  34. Aspen says:
    21 May, 2004 at 11:57 am

    Yay, Wil! This is wonderful! And the cover looks great!
    Am processing my preorder now…

  41. Erin says:

    Wil, I just had to reinstall my OS and am stuck with 16 colors till I fix my video. But even in this primitive display the cover looks great. The barest hint of a smile, and the eyes, hmm, I’ve forgotten if they’re brown or blue, but the intensity shows through.

  43. Michelle says:
    21 May, 2004 at 12:21 pm

    Wil- that cover is amazing…! I’m so happy for you and can’t wait to buy your new book…and manycopies for friends xmas gifts! yay for you!

  44. Michelle says:
    21 May, 2004 at 12:23 pm
