I love this book and corey mitchell
it def gets my vote
sportin a wood just thinkin about it
No.
@SP: Thanks for your support. You rule!
@Brent: How angsty of you…
I already voted, simply to support our resident metal head, before even reading it. However, I’ll be ordering the book from Amazon, unless Corey prefers another source (i.e., if there’s a source that allows him to keep more of the profit).
I do wonder why it’s in a “novel” category, however.
Thanks, Sammy. I truly appreciate all the support from you and the rest of the headbangin’ contingent out there. Hey, if I can sell a few more books that means I can write more about metal.
I am not too keen on the whole “novel” categorization either. The word “novel” has been altered to where it is now (incorrectly) almost a generic term like “Kleenex” or “Coke.”
Okay Corey, I just ordered my copy from Amazon. I’ll probably go into it biased to the positive, expecting it to be good, so I’ll have to put on my objective hat, ya know, to be fair…in case it sucks. Kidding. I mean, c’mon, is there such thing as a bad Coen Brothers movie?? You’ll end up my “Coen Brothers” of the written word and I’ll end up with your whole back catalogue. And because I have actually “talked” with you, I’ll feel guilty and not go to eBay to buy used copies, or to my local library. I’ll go back to Amazon and buy them new to see that the money I spend goes to the actual author.
So the next time I totally chastise you for some cockamamie opinion you have that is so totally far off base, keep in mind this new, blind devotion and loyalty to your work.
