News: NYCWTF released!

Just in time for holiday shopping I am pleased to announce that NYCWTF is now available for purchase (via Amazon and Barnes & Noble for example)! That’s right, you can buy it right now. I’m really happy with this book. It’s almost a hundred pages of true stories from the last few years of my life in New York. No, seriously, I had to only go about six years back, otherwise the book would’ve been longer than War and Peace.

But if you read TWWM you will love this book.

This is a book that is all too true, and reveals many secrets… no it doesn’t. It just tells funny stories about people calling me stupid on the train, and knocking on my door at 3am offering to sell me DVDs from the future and tugging my beard and… yeah.

Here’s the back cover blurb:

Hey. Thanks for looking at this book. You know most people just keep walking, so you’re already a special little flower in my life. You’re awesome and I care about you! So, right, the book. Well, first of all you may have noticed this blurb text is in the first person. This isn’t some corporate shill thing, no. This is me, Adam P. Knave, the guy what wrote the book you’re holding, writing this. Maybe because I’m crazy. Maybe because my publisher is too cheap to hire good corporate shills. Who knows.

The important part, the thing I want you to take away from this blurb, assuming you’re still reading it, is that this is a book filled with stories. True stories from my own life in New York. These are the types of stories I would tell you in a bar, if we were in a bar and I was telling you stories. I mean I don’t just walk up to strangers in bars and start speechifying.

Often.

But yes. This book, NYCWTF, is full of nothing but 100% true stories about New York. They’re strange, sometimes funny, and occasionally embarrassing. I have no shame. Actually, true fact, when you start writing they make you leave your shame at the door. Come on, don’t believe me? Please note I’m writing this blurb myself. Right then. So, my special dollop of joy, who is still reading this overly long blurb, do us both a favor and buy the book. You’ll laugh and enjoy it and I’ll make a bit of beer money.

NYCWTF – it reads kinda like this blurb. Except stranger.

There are kindle, Nook and iBook versions coming but I have no control over how fast places process this stuff and put things up for sale. Still, you can buy a physical copy right now and get it in time for the holidays. And you should.

Amazon: BUY IT HERE.

Barnes & Noble: BUY IT HERE.

So this Sunday (July 25th) I will be appearing on the Webcomic Beacon’s podcast. I have heard there may be other guests as well. The topic is “Define ‘comic’” which I assume means they don’t feel that TWWM is quite a comic. And so we will talk about it. What makes a comic and what doesn’t and so on.

You can listen live. The show starts at 7pm EST and runs till 8:30. They broadcast it to a UStream channel over here.

Also their page says:

“Send in emails or audio files as “call-ins” to WebcomicBeacon@gmail.com or dial 1+320-310-0922.”

And here is a link to that very page.

So yeah! Tune in and listen to me ramble on and on and, god help us all, on.

Hey guys, it’s the rare as hell TWWM News post! Yeah. I am really bad about doing these, aren’t I? Well, we’ve passed the 80 strip mark and I don’t know about you but I don’t plan on slowing down anytime soon. To that end, there will, of course, be a strip on Thursday. It may be Thanksgiving for Americans but the rest of the world wants a comic, dag-nabit! So, if you are in America, after you pass out from turkey and wake back up, come around for a strip. Hooray!

Past that, please note there is a store link up there now, as well as a bunch of links at the end of every comic. They are both great ways to show some support for the comic. Buying a shirt or mug or whatever puts money into both my hand and Matteo’s. Linking to the site, via Stumble, Digg, or twittering about it and so on increases readers which does all sorts of good things for us as well.

I think that’s it! Have a great week and there will be a comic tomorrow as always!
