I now read because of you.....

So the OP listened to a podcast of yours and it got him to read...... Is he sort of dissing your podcast voice? Like, it was so bad I just got the damn book? just sayin' Glenn Just your typical biker, blogging atheist preacher's kid

first, to Iron the thread starter. kudos to you for having the mindset to keep looking for 'your author', as you put it. this is what i tell just about everyone that comes in and says "I don't read" or "my son/daughter/ whatever won't read and I'm looking for something..." and a big yeehaw to Sigler for being that author for you.. now that I'm finished being a complete nerd, I'm dialing it down to partial nerdness. I work in a tiny library in a tiny town, and wear many hats there. One of those hats is that I'm the horror/fantasy/scifi go to chick and the one who basically tells my boss which books to order for that section. I also am the one whom patrons seek out when they are looking for what to read next in those genres. As a matter of fact, I put all of Sigler's books on my 'buy this, please" list as soon as I discovered he had broken into print. In my library, anyway, that poster would be great to put up right next to the section. and I would TOTALLY give out bookmarks with the same or similar images/phrases to people who checked out those books. Librarians in general are no longer all bitchy old woman with bad buns who tell you to shut the hell up. The entire professionis moving towards the tattooed, pierced, funky haired crowd with a true sense of humor in a lot of places. just an fyi, in case anyone is looking into Sigler marketing ideas.

Dear Mr. Sigster: We at National Chicken Scissors, Inc. wish to express our outrage at the sudden use of Chicken Scissors as an instrument of encouraging reading amongst and with the public, especially amongst said public known as Junkies. It was specifically agreed upon that Chicken Scissors, Inc. would be used to: 1. Cut chicken parts 2. Do vile things to a human person part, presently here unmentioned. 3. Be used to cut out the Hello Kitty Valentines for my daughter's party because I couldn't find the regular scissors. All Right! It was only once! Give me a Break! Returning to our diatribe, should we hear again that you are encouraging reading through Chicken Scissors, we will be forced to send a more sterner warning. A nice exquisitely sharp two bladed warning, with lovely handles. Sincerely, Ephraim C. Potash National Chicken Scissors, Inc.

That is a thing of frightful beauty.

like the poster its cool

Scott definitely got me back into reading! And I think the "Read or Die" is definitely something to look into. Every teacher could be provided a copy of the poster as well as a pair of chicken scissors. Woo!

as much as i like "reading" its hard for me to find a book i really like and actually have the time to sit down and get into it. but with scotts stuff...i cant fucking wait for sundays to roll around just so i can get my "quick Fix" for the week....well day because i listen to them right after i download it. lol ~Do You Know How Many Birthdays There Are In a Year?.......Hundreads....Litearly..Hundreads,~

Now, we just need to get Siggie on posters and in schools! What slogan can we use.. "Read! Or I'll Kill You!" nah... "Read! And I'll Kill You!" nah... "Reading... It'll kill ya!" maybe...
