Lear: And my poor fool is hanged. No, no life? Why should a dog, a horse, a rat have life, And thou no breath at all? O, thou wilt come no more, never, never, never. Pray you, undo this button. Thank you, sir. O, O, O, O.

This is great.
One of the most creative self-promotions I have ever seen. Truly inspired. Thanks for the link.
oh, i agree! i will purchase book!
Brilliant promotion.
.
Off-topic question: Would you recommend the undergraduate creative writing program at Purdue? My son Jim will be graduating from high school next year, and it would be a financial relief for for us if he didn't follow his sisters to expensive private schools (Luther and Knox), but went to a nice in-state public university.
P.S. I found your blog through Robin Andrea, formerly known as Rexroth's Daughter (though she isn't Mariana).
Robin Andrea sent me. My son-in-law received his Masters in Engineering from Purdue and/but he's very poetic.
Hi everyone.
Yes, the promotion makes traditional advertising and marketing strategies seem downright pointless. And boring.
Steve, re: Purdue. I am not really in touch with anyone at Purdue these days.
My wife, however, is close friends with a fiction writer who teaches in the program, and through her we have heard great things about Shreve Porter - the creative writing program director. Also, last I heard Bloomington has an impressive program.
Babette, the Engineer/poet blend is not as surprising at it might seem.
During my time at Purdue, a number of people in the creative writing program (fiction side if I remember correctly) had actually come into Purdue for Engineering, took a creative writing elective and decided not long after to switch majors.
