It’s Out There
Ok, last night a box of the Book arrived. I think they came
straight from the publisher because I think formally the books are supposed to
be shipping to warehouses across the country this week. So, not available yet
through the regular channels. Scott got his a day earlier as did some other folks involved in the project.
I pre-ordered one via Amazon a few months ago to see
actually when they would ship from there. ( I doubt it will be as efficient as
Harry Potter !) When it does I will let you know.
Anyway – you can pick one up here.
Pretty sure you should get it quickly.
So far none of my copies have left the house. My wife got it
and here first comment was “It looks good!” I think so. I like the colors. The
art on the front. I wish they had Rick Warren’ name in bigger print because if
we could just sell 1/40th as many books, I would be really happy.
OK, if we could sell 1/400th I would still be happy.
The cover design team did a great job. I must confess that I
think about those things, but rarely make good contributions.
The second comment – “Is your next book going to have
‘Beyond’ in the title?” (And you thought I was SAWB?) You see the previous book I
wrote with my friend Bill Easum was called Beyond the Box: Innovative Churches
that Work.
It is still available here. You can get a used copy pretty cheap it
appears. Also did not put Rick Warren' name on the cover in large enough type.
As I strolled through the first few pages I found a problem.
Failure to credit a person on our publishing team. Actually she is credited but
her name lost a letter. It says in the book – Stephanie Plage, but it is really Stephanie Plagens.
Other than that, it looks great. We look forward to you
reading and responding to us through this blog. We will attempt to answer some
of your questions here and give you updated information along the way.
Occasionally we will have installments of “Things we didn’t
say in the book” as well as links to news articles and other items of interest.
Don’t forget, get your first edition, collector’s copy now!
Buy it through Amazon here.
Barnes and Noble here.
Christian Book Distributors here.
Or ask your local bookseller to get you a copy now.
See if you can race through it like those Potter fans.
Happy New Year! Happiness and success in 2011.
