The Second of Many Crass Self-Promotional Posts to Come

I got the signed contract back in the mail today. So I guess now it's really real.

My book The Unvarnished Jesus will release from Kregel in Fall 2009.

I'm pretty pumped.

Of course, I won't think it's REALLY really real until I'm holding a printed book in my hand, but that's me being me, I guess. :-)

what Chris said!

I can't imagine the absolute elation of holding a published book that you have written in your hands. When I say congratulations, know that I'm speaking from DEEP. I want to buy a signed copy!

May it sell like "Purpose Driven Life."

Congratulations, Jared! That is really, really exciting.

Woot!

I already know that I want at least 4-5 autographed (please?) copies to give to family and friends.

6. Bill - 11/03/2008 2:57 pm CST

I cannot wait! May this be the first of many published books authored by you!

7. Jared's Mom - 11/03/2008 3:05 pm CST

Okay, I think I'm going to cry again.This is so exciting!

8. Daniel Ross - 11/03/2008 3:13 pm CST

Many congratulations to you. I'll buy one or more just so I can brag to my friends that I know an author. ;-)

I second everything Bill said! Awesome! Having a printed, published book in your hands will be just un-freaking-believable!

I, too, will buy at least one but like so many others I will want it autographed.

10. Lee Anne Millinger - 11/03/2008 4:21 pm CST

I can't wait to buy a copy! And tell all my friends that I knew you when. Well, sort of. Knew you in a bloggy sort of way.

11. Lauren - 11/03/2008 9:27 pm CST

woah. this is so neat. I feel like I know a real live author. but I don't. but it still feels like I do! I'm so excited for you. I can't wait to grab my own copy!!
