There are plenty of good folks here in AZ that would be happy to have you come out for a visit and get the word out about "Absolved" at a gun show here. As to the publishing side of it have you thought about contacting Kenneth Royce/Boston Tea Party at Javelin Press for suggestions or help. How about Matt Bracken, author of "Enemies Foreign and Domestic"? I'm sure that either of them as published authors would be very happy to render help with this (or at least advice). Please keep up the good work and leave "Absolved" open to having a sequel possible. <BR/><BR/>Yours In Liberty! ~W~ III Northgunner (from Free State Wyoming)Northgunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08429253291751005785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-23640012918750658002008-11-23T16:37:00.000-06:002008-11-23T16:37:00.000-06:00There are a few of us in AZ that will be happy to ...There are a few of us in AZ that will be happy to have you around.

As I said on WRSA, you have some sleeping bag space in St Louis.<BR/><BR/>What's more important than "getting the band together" is making sure that the <I>bands</I> can get together. This means communication. Gather phone numbers, so you and others can talk to each other if needed, and serve as points of contact. The network doesn't have to be used, it just has to exist.<BR/><BR/>I'm not a communications expert, but I'm sure there are people that would understand how to put such a thing together. Th important thing is, as you said, to let the local units stay independent, and keep training. They just need to be able to hook up across the states, and maybe the nation, so that when action is needed, the whole system can be brought online for the governors that stand up.Lorenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14843550881990596267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-5119278330783092032008-11-23T13:28:00.000-06:002008-11-23T13:28:00.000-06:00The cover of "Absolved" is bold and simple enough ...The cover of "Absolved" is bold and simple enough to translate to an XL T-shirt, with the roman numeral III on the reverse. My $15 is on hold for such a product, or the authorized graphics files in .TIF format to deliver to my local T-shirt shop. <BR/><BR/>Mike will certainly come up with a price schedule for 10+ (or appropriate shipping quantity/weight/size) that optimizes distribution costs per book. Folks need to have a copy of "Absolved" sitting on their brass-recovery box at the range and another available to pass along to interested parties. A very important part of "Book-On-Demand" printing is that the cover be sharp and clear on durable heavy stock, not looking like a dot-matrix color printer made it in 1985. <BR/><BR/>In the State of Oregon, there is no "Gun Show Loophole"(private parties are required to run background checks with gun serial number through State Police when a sale is made at a bona fide over-24-guns-for-sale "gun show"), but there is a way to have "Not-A-Gunshow" at a private meeting. The main point is to have 24 or fewer firearms for sale and no FFL-licensees selling. No background check required, and afaict, allows legal sale of handguns/longguns to 18 year old and older persons. Licensed dealers are prohibited from selling handguns to persons under 21, but private persons are not prohibited from making such a transfer. I'm not a lawyer, and you should consult counsel before circumventing the alleged intent of the law while complying with the actual language. <BR/><BR/>Having a noted author speak at a "Not-A-Gunshow" Oregon event might increase attendance. <BR/><BR/>Cheers.<BR/><BR/>Rufus13 <BR/>-in Portland Oregon-pdxr13https://www.blogger.com/profile/04663894695994248670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-73079381195065645112008-11-23T13:27:00.000-06:002008-11-23T13:27:00.000-06:00I think we can find a few spots for you to stay in...I think we can find a few spots for you to stay in Texas you'd be mighty welcome.tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14230665595988628546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-47828952207261070492008-11-23T11:00:00.000-06:002008-11-23T11:00:00.000-06:00The gun show tour is a great idea.

The book and its promotion are indeed an excellent mechanism for putting truth, inspiration and information into the hands of the people. Additionally, I think that advertising on Amazon ( they DO carry the 'Boston T Party" series), and Shotgun News, might be feasible.<BR/>The touring would be a great idea for gaining exposure and there should be plenty of people happy to host you during events, but only two caveats: one, you would also be exposing yourself to more open observation, surveillance, etc. by the lower elements, and two, you would have to exercise sufficient self discipline to avoid wearing yourself out, jeopardizing your health and so on.<BR/>But the book will indeed have a major impact on the future of our society.<BR/>All the best to you and to all here.<BR/>Si vis pacem, para bellum.jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12850395662800864408noreply@blogger.com
