HELP ILF! My new book is featured on Guitar World website...

Post by Bobby D »

Hello ILF!

So, a couple of years ago when I was gigging in Key West fulltime, I wrote this book :idk:

And then I put it away for a couple years.

Author Randy Wayne White helped spur me to finish it, and he LOVED it. I actually printed him a copy of it, so he could have it on his shelf of manuscripts.

Fast forward to THIS week......something inside me urged me to RELEASE THE BOOK. I don't know why. I just did it.

Anyhow -- now it is on the Guitar World website -- and I NEED some support -- just go there, check it out, and click LIKE......that's it!

http://news.guitarworld.com/

And my friend JP from the STRATOBLOG wrote the review, you can check it at his bloggity-blog:

http://www.stratoblogster.com/2010/07/b ... logster%29

I did it as an e-book because:

it's GREEN

no publisher to deal with

it's only $5

so, if you dig it, and want to read a truly harrowing yet strangely beautiful and funny TRUE story of 30 years in the music biz, drop 5 bucks and go for the ride of your life!

DONT DO IT MY WAY :lol: :lol: :lol:

thanks guys :joy:

lotta cool things going on with the book!

if you want a copy, PM me and buy one direct for only $4.99 of your paypal love :love:

the GRAMMY AWARD people are loving the book, and will likely be featuring it in the year end Grammy Magazine that goes out to the whole damn biz.

AND another author loved the book and recommended it to his literary agent, who now has a copy of it herself, and is considering signing me to their agency, which means it will come out as a "real" book..and also means i will probably have to pull it from online sales in preparation for the proper book release.

so get the ORIGINAL version now while you can :lol:

my bliggity blog is here:

if you are all up in the twitter feed, then keep up with me at:

@bobbydevito

the book is truly the wildest ride you can get for five bucks. i guarantee it :joy:
