Books vs. Tattoos

Now is a good time to buy one or two of my books. But I’m conflicted about writing this post.

As you know, I’ve written several books. As you might remember, I had a summer sale on them a few months back. And as we head into the upcoming crazy shopping season, it’s tempting for me to shout, “Buy my books!”

But I’m conflicted. Because there are probably better ways to use your money. You could save it. You could give it to a nonprofit. You could buy someone lunch. Of course, you could also put it toward a tattoo you love but later question.  But that’s another story.

Point being, we are awash in ways to spend money. Most of us don’t need more stuff. We probably have a dozen books we haven’t read. Or at least I do. So why buy more?

And then the other voice in my head says, “Because they’re my books, they’re fantastic, and you should read them!”

So there’s that.

Since I can’t resolve my own personal conflict, I’m certainly not going to resolve yours. I’ll just let you know that now is a good time to buy one or two of my books. Give them to someone this holiday season. Fill that empty space on your bookshelf. Or use them as doorstops. I’ll let you figure it out.

You can buy them here. They’re priced right, shipping is reasonable, and I promise not to ask what you do with them (but send me pictures if you get a Junkyard Wisdom™ tattoo).
