Why hello, fantastic followers of The Games at Our Core,

I just came back from a perhaps-a-tad-too-long-for-the-book’s-sake vacation, and I discovered that you still haven’t bought my book. Almost none of you.

But no worries! The Games at Our Core’s campaign is still ongoing, so you have plenty of time to give a chance to my little story about grief, family, relationships, nostalgia, and most importantly, weird shit happening. That’s the winning combo.

More and more content from the book is about to be released, so stay tuned. Or, you know, just blindly buy it right now. Because you’re nice. You are a nice person full of talent, and you deserve to buy my book.

If you haven’t yet made up your mind, at least go tell everyone you know "hey, what the hell is that" about my book, so more people can know about it.

So what are you waiting for? Take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime-but-not-really opportunity to help some random kid sell a book. The Games at Our Core! The Games at Our Core! THE GAMES AT OUR CORE! Go.

Why, hello follower of my book (and my heart),

The FIVE PRE-ORDERS IN FIVE DAYS campaign for The Games at our Core is almost over and the book has...two pre-orders! Wow, I shouldn’t be, because it shows how badly things were going, but I’m pretty impressed! Keep it up people!

For all those followers who have joined us since my last update (an also surprising amount), here’s a recap: seeing that I still had zero pre-orders and totally wasn’t going the win the Nerdist contest, I lowered my expectations like hell and decided that, if I got five pre-orders in the last five days on the contest, I’d be fairly satisfied. I now have two pre-orders and a newfound lust for attention, so I would like a few more please.

That’s where YOU come in! You still have time to help turn this campaign into a phenomenon bigger than the Beatles! (as in more than four members) Join the revolution and take part and the biggest, most last-minute, silly and almost pathetic expectation-lowering-but-still-seemingly-impossible-but-you-could-still-do-it-to-be-nice-at-least-I-mean-you’ll-probably-get-your-money-back-eventually-anyway-and-isn’t-the-point-of-life-to-make-other-people-smile-come-on-do-it-for-that-guy-you’ve-never-met-he’ll-owe-you-one-like-I-don’t-know-let’s-say-he’ll-give-you-an-ice-cream-cone-well-ok-he-won’t-pay-you-one-but-he-might-draw-one-if-you-want-who-doesn’t-want-a-drawing-of-an-ice-cream-cone-that’s-deliciously-random-right-you-just-put-it-above-your-chimney-and-it’ll-be-such-a-conversation-starter-like-hey-Octavius-what’s-up-with-the-ice-cream-cone-drawing-above-your-chimney-trust-me-it’ll-be-a-riot campaign ever!

Also, it sounds like a pretty good book, and I would really appreciate you giving it a shot. Pre-order now! You still have time!

(PS Oh yeah, that was totally a barely modified rehash of my last update. Deal with it.)

Why, hello again, few people who saw my book and thought "meh, seems alright, I guess", 

We are halfway into my FIVE PRE-ORDERS IN FIVE DAYS campaign for The Games at our Core and and the book has...still zero pre-orders. Well poopsie-doodle, as they say.

For all those followers who have joined us since my last update (3), here’s a recap: seeing that I still had zero pre-orders and totally wasn’t going the win the Nerdist contest, I lowered my expectations like hell and decided that, if I got five pre-orders in the last five days on the contest, I’d be fairly satisfied. I presently have sweet nothing.

But YOU can help! You still have time to help turn this campaign into a phenomenon bigger than the Beatles! (as in more than four members) Join the revolution and take part and the biggest, most last-minute, silly and almost pathetic expectation-lowering-but-still-seemingly-impossible-but-you-could-still-do-it-to-be-nice-at-least-I-mean-you’ll-probably-get-your-money-back-eventually-anyway-and-isn’t-the-point-of-life-to-make-other-people-smile-come-on-do-it-for-that-guy-you’ve-never-met-he’ll-owe-you-one-like-I-don’t-know-let’s-say-he’ll-give-you-an-ice-cream-cone-well-ok-he-won’t-pay-you-one-but-he-might-draw-one-if-you-want-who-doesn’t-want-a-drawing-of-an-ice-cream-cone-that’s-deliciously-random-right-you-just-put-it-above-your-chimney-and-it’ll-be-such-a-conversation-starter-like-hey-Octavius-what’s-up-with-the-ice-cream-cone-drawing-above-your-chimney-trust-me-it’ll-be-a-riot campaign ever!

Well, hello, people randomly following my book.

There are five days remaining in the Nerdist contest, and The Games at our Core has... zero pre-orders. I think I could have put more effort into publicity. I put no effort into publicity. I’m a lazy, lazy person.

No worries though, as it is never too late to say never say never. While I may not win, I have set myself the goal of getting five (5), FIVE (5) pre-orders in the next five days, and I need your help to do it! Do you like to throw away money on a kind of unsafe bet? Well here’s your chance! You don’t like that? Well, the book probably won’t get published anyway, you’ll get your money back, just do it for good ol’ me!

Now, since you are only three measly people following Games at our Core, I gently (but with a certain fury) ask you to spread the word about my delicious campaign. 

Five pre-orders in five days, let’s do this! The Games at our Core! The Games at our Core! THE GAMES AT OUR CORE!
