Seen posts for Dzur on www.fireflyfans.net and www.serenitymovie.org
forums
Ideas for spreading the word about Dzur:
1. Check bookstore shelves. See if Dzur is face front in Brust section
and in *New* sections.
2. folks what like the book CAN post reviews. :> On weblogs,
Amazon.com, and so on.
3. Print out http://www.scifi.com/essentials/dzur page which includes
an excerpt and the cover. Leave it around for readers to find. I just
printed one in color. I thought the whole page would print in color,
but only the top artwork and cover printed in color on a white background.
4. see whether your library has ordered _Dzur_. If not, request
it. Las Vegas Libraries ordered 11 copies (for 15 branches) - and 5 of
them are already on hold. :D
5. Same applies to your favorite bookstore[s].
Note on libraries: Most libraries have a purchase request form where you
can request that a library purchase a book for the library. Also lots of
libraries accept book donations.
6. Some libraries will allow posters or flyers for books. Just as various
stores do. The B&N stores like themes. Request a _Dzur_ display.
7. You can post the Essentials link for _Dzur_ [above] onto various online
forums - wherever you happen to hang out and talk books. Could be
rec.arts.sf, YahooGroups, weblog communities, what-have-you.
8. Ask if your local gaming, comic and/or hobby store would let you post
the _Dzur_ Essentials page.
9. And you can see whether your local/favorite conventions would link to
the _Dzur_ Essentials page too. Plus, they have flyer display areas at
cons...
