Good news, bad news

So after a day of somewhat stressful meetings, I came home to some nice emails from people who’d gotten copies of the new hardcover ModCon book in the mail, including this picture of Ze and his copy. Unfortunately that mail was followed by emails from Lulu telling me that unfulfilled orders on the book (including my own) had been canceled — at least temporarily — and when I logged into my store the book’s pages had been set to private. I can only assume that someone is doing what they can to cause me and/or the body modification scene annoyance. I’m waiting to hear back from Lulu now, so hopefully this is just a temporary hiccup and I don’t have to upload it to an alternate printer (although if someone wants to recommend one — or be one — don’t hesitate to write).

Either way, I’ll update for those of you waiting to order this when I know more.

Well, those of you who did get a copy now hold the rarest book I’ve ever put out!

    looks like I lucked out this time around although I really hope the book will be available again.

    Ze looks good with the book; now, if I only thought about taking a picture of myself with it ;)

    I just recieved an email from Lulu saying they could not full my order and would give me a refund. I spoke to a livechat person within 2 minutes and they are trying to figure out what’s going on for me. I’ve already told them that I don’t care if there is a delay, I just really want this book.

    I’m waiting on my reply from the livechat people. I am a sad panda.

    Aurgh.

    I hope everything gets righted quite soon, I know many people are anxiously awaiting this wonderful book of yours. What does it mean, that it got pulled as “unusual”? Is that by the publishers?

Wow Shannon, that's really annoying! What is it, 1997 on Geocities? Retroweb is NOT cool!
