Artist Editions!

Gah!

I've just started on a course. I won't be home till past eight Monday.

What hour your time exactly?

I can't say for sure right now, for (believe it or not, technical issues).... but let's narrow it down to late-morning-to-early-afternoon, Monday, Pacific Standard Time.

<pedantic>
So I believe we're on Pacific Daylight Time, not PST. Unless LA's decided to ignore daylight savings and I didn't hear of it, that is.

So somewhere in the vicinity of 20.00 UTC then? Good - I think I can manage that.

(Damn you for making me want a smartphone so I could go online in the middle of a lecture.)

ARGH! I'm sitting in Iraq and it's 2:40 pm already. I've been waiting alllllllll day. The promise of a new Sheldon is the only thing that has brightened my deployment so far.

Got them!  Thank you, thank you, thank you.  I can finally go to bed.  :)

Except, apparently, those of us newsletter subscribers on gmail whose newsletters seems to get delivered straight to /dev/null

Pssst: Google Davekellett and twitter

(Yes, I cheated - I don't follow twits, but desperation tends to be the destroyer of principles.)

I don't follow twits either, that's why I only follow the webcomics.com guys and Wil Wheaton

#157/300 arrived today;

#157? I've always wondered if so many people instantly buy an artist edition that you usually end up getting between #150 and #250 if you order instantly?
Or do you sell the first artist editions at comic conventions, Dave, and we're just out of luck? I'd like to get between #1 and 5 at some point, but I've never managed. Can't get 1 cause Dave ebayed it, but did anyone get 2?

For the Artist Editions on "Living Dangerously" -- like the past few Sheldon books -- the first 200 copies sell lickety-split in the first 12-24 hours, and then the last 100 take about a week to sell. Sometimes a matter of 30-45 minutes can mean you get #20 or #120. :)

...but I did notice a Sheldon reader on Facebook flag this #7

I got number 5 today in the post in Aussieland. And I am super excited I got a sketch of Gramps!!! Woo Hoo! Thanks Dave.
