Ignore Everybody and I’ll give you a book


41QbZXspduL. SL160  Ignore Everybody and Ill give you a book Ignore Everybody and Ill give you a book

Hugh MacLeod tells you in the title, Ignore Everybody; he means it. The book is all about creativity, your dreams, and nurturing both. Actually it’s more about protecting them.

Hugh is the genius behing gapingvoid.com; business card art is alive and well. He’s a cartoonist but makes his living selling fine prints via the Internet; so his bio says. His book takes a collection of his art, along with his thoughts on creativity, and packages them in one great read. He’s given us a sneak peak.

Promoting a book can be difficult. Even famous people like Hugh can have a tough time. Helping things out, he did something fun, he gave away signed copies.

Giveaways rock. Hugh offered up an extra signed copy for the for first 1,000 pre-orders. That’s right; if you pre-ordered a copy, he sent you an additional signed copy. Well, I’d like to pass on his generosity to you.

The original deal is done; getting a signed copy now is going to cost you. I’d like to offer you a chance to get a brand new unsigned copy for free. You just have to give a few minutes of your time.

My husband and I are always talking about "planet Kiss My Ass" and this reminds me of it.
I would so love this book as I am starting my own art/creative type business this year.

I couldn't seem to make the link copy over but I loved the expression that I'm only talking to you because I do not have my computer. This book sounds like it has great humor. Thanks for the wonderful giveaway.

Wow, that one is a unanimous vote. Hope Hugh appreciates that. :)

@LindaSherman: Like winning free books? Lovable @tojosan has "Ignore Everyone" up http://bit.ly/BIVkc

Love them all, quite awesome talent. My favourite would have to be the creative bug (so true...):
