PLA: The Book

[rbcp]

The god damned dumpster diving scene with love and rockets, for fucks sake. damn you phone loser slackers.

Okay, but I'm going to change Love and Rockets to Justin Beiber so I can appear to be more hip.

hahahaha!!!! Love and Rockets WAS hip back then.  besides, if you really killed your friend and you are trying to forget about it then don't put it in and I won;t bring it up again.

love
trevvy.

Now that you see what will officially be in the book, what other PLA stuff do you want in there?

Is it too soon to tell the tales of G. Carbon?

I think it's all more or less in there.  I never kept much of that a secret.  While the "travels" section of my homepage isn't in there, most of the stuff from that page is either in the Homelessness or the Credit Card Fraud sections.  And thrown around in other parts too.  It'll be very confusing and hard to follow.

I would like to include the Love & Rockets thing, but recent events lead me to believe that my dead friend is actually alive.  I might end up having to compensate him if I use that story.

[ohemgee]

hurry.  I can't wait to read it and I want to be able to name drop around my friends.  I don't know anyone famous.  OMG UR GONA B  A REEL PUBLISHED AUTHER!!!

I'm trying to decide if whether I completely love this cover design or completely hate it.



It's not done, of course.  There will be a little more text on it, in the black spot and possibly another "ad" section with text on the left side.  Some of the bottom will be chopped off to fit the 5 1/4" x 8" book size.  I'm thinking the entire back of the book will be that silver metal with holes stuff like you see around the pay phone and all text will be enclosed in advertisement frames like you see on real pay phones.

What do you think?  Some brutally honest opinions would be great!

I really dig the cover design. And I'm not just saying that because of the money you wired to me.

[trevelyn]

i like it too.  you could always take submissions from fans.

[rbcp]

I got the first proof in the mail today.

[murd0c]

I cannot wait to actually pay for the content I normally get for free!

ZOMG ZOMGGGGG GIMMMIEEEEEeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111111

All that grid stuff along the sides looks stupid on the book, so I'm going to zoom in the pay phone a little, which will cut off even more of the bottom.  Needs more pay phone!



I put a new thingie on the left side to give people an idea of what it's about.  If anyone can think of something better to write over there, I'm open to ideas.  All these pieces I'm adding are from different pay phones that I photographed all over Albany a couple weeks ago.

The Rob Vincent thing isn't formatted yet, but I guess this is a good time to mention that RTF is doing the foreword.

I dig the cover.  Put my name somewhere in the book and I'll totally buy extra copies so I can impress my female friends.

It's already in there.  Pretty much everyone from the forums is, plus the few people that I can remember from Cal's forums.  Except murd0c, fuck him.
