It’s a party where you can hobnob with amazing writers and artists, and get your holiday shopping out of the way…cheap! The worst-case scenario? You get buzzed on free booze! The best-case scenario? You pick up personally autographed books for your pals, who will then think you’re hip and connected. There’s no admission price; the event is free and open to the public." please take a look at the link attatched. and hopefully i'll see and meet some of you at this show, and if it odsen't appeal to you please forward the link to someone you think might get a kick out of it thanks.

o.k. everyone i'm officially putting my books up for sale. heres how i would like to work it.

STEP 1: contact me and let me know that you would like to purchase my book. the cost of the book is $25.00 and $10.00 flat rate shipping within the U.S., if ot's an oversee's order i will need to caculate the shipping cost. my e-mail address is the book is a hardback, 76 page's, and in full color. the theme of it is monsters and horror. many of the pages can be seen in my gallery.rubenmartinez73@yahoo.com

STEP 2: i will be doing sketches in every book that i sell, so when youe-mail me please let me know what you want. if you don't know and choose to leave it up to me i will still do something cool. i would prefer to do sketches that have a horror theme but will be up to anything. once you e-mail me i will give you my Paypal account info so you can send me the cash.

STEP 3: please be patient with me, i have a full time job and will usually ship within a week. so i will take a certain amount of orders, do my thing then ship them out. then i'll do a couple more. i don't want you to pay for something then wait forever for me to do it. so i hope this works, and i look to hearing from some of my t amigo's.
