Price change?
Feb 21After very long and extremely careful consideration, I've decided to raise the price on Chooseomatic ebooks from $2.99 to $3.99. Compared to the trade paperback price ($14.95), and just about any of your other price/entertainment value options, I think it remains a screaming deal (it's something like 3 and a half cents for each of Zombocalypse Now's 112 endings, and I gotta eat, you know?)
I just wanted to toss up a quick post to say that if you've been thinking of getting ZN for Kindle, Nook or iBooks, jump all over it befoe the change takes effect and save a buck. But the new price went live at Apple & Barnes & Noble as I was typing this (those sumbitches are ALL OVER IT.) Amazon can't be far behind! Just fair warning!
Just FYI
Jan 27I've been having some crazy, crazy times getting the website transferred to the new url, so if anything looks funky here, please bear with me. Honestly, if you're even reading this post, COUNT YOUR LUCKY STARS.
I'm pretty sure this is my penance for hideous Wordpress crimes committed in a previous life.
Good news, everyone!

And YOU'RE WELCOME for making you hear Hubert Farnsworth's voice in your head just then.
I managed to nab the chooseomatic.com url from some guy who had been squatting on it for the past few years. The five-character difference between that and the current chooseomaticBOOKS.com url may not seem like such a big deal, but it makes me so happy I could just pee.
I'll eventually be transferring this site to the new one, but have no worries -- I'll maintain the old url and have it redirect, so any bookmarks you have goin' on should still work just fine.

Just wanted to put up a quick post in memory of Michael S. Hart, who passed away on Tuesday at the age of 64. Michael pretty much invented ebooks (waaaaay back in 1971, the same year I was invented), and is the founder of Project Gutenberg, which has made tens of thousands of volumes of history's best literature (and 3 ugly ones) freely available in digital format. Upon perusing his obit, I also discovered that he was born in my beloved Tacoma, WA.
“eBooks are the very first thing that we're all able to have as much as we want other than air. Think about that for a moment and you realize we are in the right job." --Michael S. HartRest in peace, man. And if any of you feel like you'd like to honor the guy's memory, go download some awesome free books, or even throw a couple of bucks at PG.
