I, Points in Case Columnist and reserved diplomat, Nathan DeGraaf, live in Tampa and write about whatever I want. One day, someone may actually pay me to babble on endlessly about my meaningless existence. Until then, this will have to do.

The Snippets and the Impure Tour is Here
A while back, I promised you a book. I try to keep my promises. To read about all the reasons to buy it, you should read this article.
To buy it, you can click here.
I have no car, no driver's license, my ride to work had a breakdown so I had to sleep on a friend's couch last night and have his girl drive me to work this morning. I'm dead broke and I have a ton of problems I need to address.
Nevertheless, I feel really good today.
But I'd feel better if you bought the book.
No Recess Chapter 6 will be up sometime today. If you like No Recess then The Snippets and the Impure Tour is a no brainer for you. You'll love it.

This might be a no-brainer but I am curious so I will ask.
Which is more profitable for you? The physical book or the download?
Holy crap - 278 pages?? Yeah, I can pony up $6 for that. Okay so I bought the book , and while I don't want to rain on your parade or anything - what is there to stop me from saving this as a PDF and sending it to 200 of my closest friends? That kindof cuts into your profitability I think with the whole downloading aspect....
They make the same amount.
Nothing is stopping you from emailing the download to your friends as far as I know.
You should check to see if the website can do something to stop that - its not really fair to you to have people sharing the book vs purchasing the book.
Also I am about 20 pages in and it is quite good. So, $6 well spent! :) Congrats to you on being published!

Safeguards to prevent that end up annoying customers more than it stops thieves, unfortunately.
Nice work, Nate. Buying it this week.
TDHurst - Thanks! Just trying to help Nate out now, although I suspect the $6 I just spent is just contributing to pickling Nate's liver.... :)
I bought the book back when it first came out. Are there any major changes or is it just some reformatting and typo fixing?
If you've already bought the old book, most of the changes are grammar, syntax, font and style (i.e, it has a cover now). Also, there is a foreword by Court Sullivan in this one which was not in the old version.

Just think of your $6 as a contribution to further DeGraaf publications. How many of life's great stories happen sober?
