Evil Mastermind Press Announces Upcoming Release

Evil Mastermind Press is pleased to announce its upcoming release and the first in a new line of business-related books for people who have given up on success and just want to get by.

In Seven Habits of Highly Unsuccessful People, author Stephen Hise examines the life stories of numerous well-known losers and identifies the seven characteristics common to their failure.

From the story of Hubert “Swishy” Slogwell, the worst sports agent in history, to Mobutu Potapu, the only guy running a Nigerian oil scam who actually lost money, Hise covers them all.

Evil Mastermind Press will release the book as soon as just one of those lottery tickets pay off big. Be sure to watch for this one in bookstores nowhere near you!

You’re Welcome!

Pompous Ass Publishing has just issued a statement that international sensation and author extraordinaire Bob Hammond has released his latest title: Exceptional Talent: The Bob Hammond Story.

This book is the latest among hundreds (or possibly far fewer) penned by the iconic Hammond. Exceptional Talent is actually his twelfth autobiography, joining his other bestselling (supposedly) nonfiction titles like: All About Me; You’re Welcome, World; Memoir of One Very Special Guy; and Hammond, For The Win.

The book’s foreword was written by Preston Endicott-Hayes, President of the Very Prestigious Author’s Association, who says, “The inspiring Mister Hammond was born as a mere infant. Lacking the ability to write, all his very earliest works were dictated painstakingly to his mother. Who knows what gems were lost to mankind as she left the typewriter to change his diapers? One cannot help but be moved to inspiration as Hammond relates the story of his first day at school. When the teacher explained the class would concentrate upon learning reading and writing, Bob’s riposte was, ‘For my liking, you may forgo the lessons in reading, for I was born only to write.‘ And write, he has!” Continue reading “You’re Welcome!”

IU is brought to you in part by…

Indies Unlimited is brought to you in part by Fish Byproducts Incorporated, makers of fine cosmetics and household products.

Our research shows that indie authors are more likely than normal well-adjusted people to own cats. It’s also likely that if you’ve retained any part of a personal hygiene regimen, it probably includes the occasional use of mouthwash.

The problem of course, is that minty-fresh breath doesn’t really impress cats. When it comes to cuddle-time with your kitty, why not use a mouthwash with a scent preferred by cats 2-1 over other leading brands?

That’s right—with Fishterine, you can fight germs and have the fishy-fresh breath that cats adore. Now available in Terrific Tuna, Sumptuous Salmon, and new Magnificent Mackerel. Buy some today! Available wherever fine fish-scented products are sold.

NaNoWriMo Triple Double-Dog-Dare Challenge

Mr. Pish Typing
I’d better find someone to help me type. I’m going to have very tired fingers.

Well, my observance of National NO Writing Month ended one day into November. I was planning a steadfast boycott of writing this month, per my post here. My plan, however, was foiled by the one thing I can’t say no to: a double-dog-dare.

Yes, that’s right. I was double-dog-dared to write not one, not two, but three books during the month of November. Because, really, everyone else is writing ONE book. Who cares? Let’s make this a real challenge and up that ante. Three books – written, edited, formatted, and published. You think I can do it? Continue reading “NaNoWriMo Triple Double-Dog-Dare Challenge”
