change this

The “How To Be Crea­tive” PDF just upped another point on ChangeThis.com, to #3 most down­loa­ded. Thanks, Guys!

The “Hugh­train” PDF remains at #16. Again, thanks.
If you want to sup­port gaping­void, the best thing you can do is down­load The Hugh­train PDF. And if you can con­vince your friends to do the same, even bet­ter.
Yeah, I know, it’s kinda foul and nasty of me to pimp it so sha­me­lessly, but the higer up Chan­geThis it goes, the easier it will be for me to con­vince a publisher to turn it into a book. And I’ve recently star­ted thin­king about books more.
So, my friends, Down­load! Down­load like the wind!

"Hugh's Daily Cartoon" Newsletter. A new cartoon sent out every weekday morning to your inbox [RSS version here.]. A wee chuckle to start your day off right etc.

    Oddly enough, the cons­tant plugs don’t bug me in the least. I find it kind of ins­truc­tive watching you repeat your­self so often in dif­fe­rent words. The old repe­ti­tion trick in action…
    But even with my advan­ced ADD, it seems to pass by without set­ting off the ter­mi­nal bore­dom alarm. I’m not sure why, but I’d guess it’s ’cause you’re such a cheeky bas­tard and I find it amu­sing. heh.

    Is it really that hard to con­vince a publisher to make a book? I don’t know anything about the publishing industry, but con­si­de­ring the volume of use­less busi­ness books I see out there, I would guess they’re offe­ring publishing deals to mon­keys that can type.
    Any­way, I think Hugh­train cer­tainly would suc­ceed as a book, but hope­fully not a big book. I’m tired of rea­ding busi­ness books that are 200 pages when all they really nee­ded was 20 pages to make their point. It’s as if the publishing industry thinks if a book is less than 200 pages it must be crap so wri­ters inc­lude 180 pages of filler just to meet the expec­ta­tions of what a good book must be.

  5. There is something about the Chan­geThis’ down­load links that makes my Acrobat&IE hang. I wish I could down­load from there. *sigh*

    Down­loa­ded and saved… do we get auto­graphed copies when it does get published? :)
