After three months of planning, designing and editing the book is finally here. Phoenix 20 officially released on May 15th, 2008. For readers of my blog and my twitter friends you get it a day early. (See, social media pays.)
I want to do something special for Phoenix, it is after all a book about this city. What I would love to do is have a book signing event for the local residents who are interested in buying the book.
Why? Because it is all about building community here in Phoenix and of course another excuse to get together. It is also a great deal for you, I’ll cover the shipping and you will get a signed copy.
I will only be able to do this if I can get a minimum of 10 local buyers to commit to buying a book. Leave a comment below if you are interested in purchasing a book for this community event.
When I have ten commitments in the comments I will post a buy it now button on this post. This only works if you buy directly from me, if you buy a book from the blurb.com website it will not count toward making this local event happen.
Pricing:
Blurb.com
$80.00 + 10.00 Shipping

$80.00 + Signed Copy + Party!
Thank you to everyone that bought a book. We reached the goal in only 2 days! I can’t believe how quickly you all came together to support me. I am truly grateful to know each of you.
This button will remain active until the day I make the order on Monday June 2, 2008. The #phx party will follow approximately 2 weeks after the order is placed- more details to come in a future blog post.


Hi Tyson,
We will purchase a book.

Congrats Tyson, Looking forward to seeing this. Let me know what I can do to promote this. I have some t shirts we could bundle.
I’ll purchase one! But I don’t think I count….
Love you!

I think I am in.
I’ll buy one! I’ve never purchased a book on art, but this one sounds very cool and I’m all about making Phoenix a better place to live; even if “my way” isn’t artistic:) Congratulations, mi amigo!

Of course I will want one! Ed can take my place at the party, since I will probably be in California. And I will buy one for the Mayor, too, and send you down to his office to deliver it from us! (He’s an old friend of mine).
@edaz!
