It’s easy to think that the paperback is the hardcover’s adorable baby brother…lovable, of course, important, definitely. But some how, just not as…as…..exciting. Well ladies and gentlemen, I am hear to tell you that it just ain’t so. The looming publication of the paperback of Tangled Roots is generating all sorts of excitement chez Guiney.
First of all, there’s the new cover — the same amazing image, but now with wonderful quotes by generous readers, an author’s bio on the back and even a small photo of the author (ie, me).
Then there’s the first promotion which I mentioned here and which you can still check out over at bluechrome’s blueblog. A piece of Mars, anyone?
And now, the most exciting of all…THE BOOK MOVIE! Jamieson Wolf, writer and artiste extraordinaire, has created through his company Night Wolf Design a rather amazing trailer for Tangled Roots which I am thrilled to show you now.
Oh, I tell you, paperbacks are wonderful things!
That’s a very cool trailer!
And I’ve always though paperbacks smell better than hardbacks:-)
Oooohhhh that makes me want to read it all over again!!! Great trailer!!

Lane and Carol: What fun this is! I’m so glad you like it. xo
Wow! Worthy of an Oscar (and no doubt thoroughly well-deserved, too).
that’s awesome! (and yes, to answer your question, we did make t-shirts a bit like those ruscha prints – one was with the complete lyrics to don’t stop believing by Journey, and the other simpe posed the question: is MacGuyver Jesus?). thanks for scoping out ND!!!!! adding your blog to the google reader!
I much prefer paperbacks, they’re far more portable! Great blog, I am glad I stopped by and will be back again soon.

oh exciting! Good luck to the equally exciting new baby, and congratulations to Jamieson for the brilliant movie too.
That video preview is almost as gorgeous as the book itself. Paperbacks are the best, so much easier to read while lying down 🙂
Dot: Thanks. Yes, I’m already planning what I’ll wear to next year’s event. Do you think I can get Johnny Depp to be my date? 🙂
ASP CAP: Hey there! so glad you came by!
Emily: So glad you stopped by, too. Thanks!
Sarah: And thanks, as always, to you too.
Woof! Woof! Woof!
That trailer is wonderful, and I’ve only seen it without sound.
I hope someone gets the idea and makes a film out of the book as well.
Congratulations, Sue – all so very exciting! I’m thrilled for you 🙂
