Just wanted to drop by and give y'all brehs a little update. Things have been ok, far as the book goes, I suspect people will by more hard copies of my novel instead of a digital one. Which is :ehh: People are willing to pay $10 for a hardcover book. Go figure...:ld:

Also I found me a low ass costing garment printer on alibaba, I'm gonna have merchandise ready to go soon as I copyright/trademark my logo. Coffee Mugs, baseball caps with the snapback velcro straps, T-shirts, Hoodies, Knit caps, Workout wear, Biker Patches (If your into that), Found me a few wholesale sites, plus with the garment printer I could make some bank. Plus I set up my Amazon sellers account like 2 days ago. So I can put merchandise up when I need to. :banderas: Next step is setting up the UPS delivery account because once people order the stuff I need to ship things out ASAP.

All in All I'm feeling positive about the direction things are going, even if I had to re-edit my book, I got a good feeling about things.

Trying to work on a lil video game but I need coders and artists, I'm trying to start doing it by myself but it's no joke...:sadcam:

Then once that's all done, then the animated series...:whew::whoo: Y'all thought the boondocks was official y'all aint seen nothing yet...:youngsabo:

HERE'S A LITTLE MOCKUP OF THE T-SHIRTS.... Hot or not???

Wouldn't buy off bat but that's not what matters. You just need to worry about making dude popular first then cats would buy. If not this look like any ole random drawing in that boondocks style (I don't have a better way of saying it) and isn't going to get many to cop outside of here where they say almost everything is hot just because you(general) are trying which most don't do.

It won't get famous until the book gets famous period. I'd love to be wrong but its soooo much stuff that looks like that out now it'll be really hard. Just work on getting that book out there more and then work on this other stuff. Right now all this other stuff that isn't about the actual book and marketing is straight bullshyt right now. The book takes off the other stuff will come but the book is the big thing now. I wish I remembered what podcast it was but some cat that makes children's books was talking about something similar. He built up his audience then made plush toys based on the characters and now since he has a fan base now he could make money selling the stuffed animals. Now he said he's doing good enough that he quit his job and hopefully that's where you eventually get to but remember the book is first period fam.
