Two freebies for Drive readers
Drive is now six months old — and we’re off to an outstanding start. To celebrate the success, and to provide ever more good stuff for readers, I’m happy to announce two free — the world’s favorite price! — offers for you.
1. Bookplates. We now have custom-made, hand-signed Drive bookplates. They’re pretty cool, if I do say so myself. Â If you’d like one, just visit our new bookplate page, enter your name and address, and we’ll send you one at no charge.
2. Reading list. Daniel Cornwall, a librarian in Juneau, Alaska, wanted to make Drive‘s reading list of 15 essential books (see p. 185) more accessible. So he entered the list into a global library catalog called World Cat. Just click this link — and you’ll be able to locate any of the books at your local library or from your favorite online bookseller. But please, for my sake, don’t stick your bookplate into a library book.
Great idea! I’d order one, but I suspect it might interfere with the screen on my iPod.
@nick – You raise an in interesting issue. How does an author “sign” an e-book? Seems like someone will establish a new convention.
Harder still to sign an audiobook…
I know it will TOTALLY destroy the huge resale value on the collectors market, but is there anyway to request a personalized bookplate? Something along the lines of “Brian, You DRIVE me crazy with these ridiculous requests. Now leave me alone, Dan”?
Thanks for this Dan, very cool.
Thanks Dan.
I do have a signed Whole New Mind from you. I put in my request because you have been such an inspiration. I keep buying your books as gifts to everyone I care about. Thank you.
Dan,
I just wanted to thank you for taking the time to sign and send the bookplates! I received mine today in the mail and my girlfriend was confused at my excitement.
In reference to your hotel story about the stamp, this bookplate and letter mean a lot to me and it is something that you didn’t have to do for me to enjoy your book.
Thank you very much!
Regards,
Derrick
Dan,
Stuck mine into Drive yesterday as well. It’s cool. Not as cool as getting my Whole New Mind signed in person with a chat at Chautauqua Institution a few summers back was, but it put a smile on my face.
Appreciating the connection,
— Chip
NOT FINDING THE ON LINE TEST ON YOUR SITE MENTIONED IN THE BOOK. GREAT READ!
