Buy The Amazin' Avenue Annual

by Eric Simon on Feb 22, 2011 10:01 AM EST

The Amazin' Avenue Annual is at the printer—heck, it may even be printed by now. Once the printer is finished with the books, they'll go back to ACTA and then most of them will go off to retailers, including Amazon.com, BN.com, Barnes & Noble stores, and so forth. We're going to offer the book to independent booksellers as well, so if you favor a local book shop be sure to request that they buy a few copies of the book and display them prominently. Even if your go-to bookstore is Barnes & Noble, go ahead and request the book there as well. The more we can show that there's demand for the book the more exposure it's likely to get.

You should also request that your local library carry the book. They carry the almanac and the Guinness Book of World Records every year, they can carry the Amazin' Avenue Annual, too!

If you've done any of these things we'd love to hear about it. Drop us a line at and tell us what hell you have wrought.

While you're at it, pick up a copy of the AAA for yourself. It's available for pre-order from ACTA Sports, Amazon.com, and Barnes & Noble. The book should be available to all retailers on or around March 1.

Got a Kindle, an iPad, or a Nook? As we speak, the AAA is being converted for all three formats and should be available by the second week of March for $9.99.

And if you haven't done so already, sign up for our newsletter to get exclusive content and win copies of the book.

Eric,

how will graphs/pictures, etc. translate for readers like the Kindle?

Charts and tables

will be converted to images and you’ll be able to view them as you would in a printed book. Everything should flow beautifully.

What is your preferred retailer

with regards to publishing splits or otherwise?

We get by far the most money if you buy it from ACTA, but doing so also costs you the most money. Apart from ACTA, our cut is the same regardless of where you buy it.
