Since my last blog, I’ve sold a few copies of Dreamer, Drifter, Drunk, including at both the Hyde Park and the Whitford Lions Club fairs (both in Perth). However, time waits for no one (particularly middle-aged authors who own food obsessive-compulsive cats) and Christmas is just eight months away. With that in mind, you may have a number of employees and are looking for simple but effective Xmas presents for them. Why not get in early and buy a box of Dreamer, Drifter, Drunk and give each employee a copy? Pete’s “BuyaBoxaBooks” special costs just $150, including postage within Australia or postage (or delivery) in Perth. That’s nine books at just $16.67 each, a 33⅓% reduction on the Recommended Retail Price of just $25. Unfortunately, due to postage costs, this offer only applies to Australian buyers.
More pressing than Xmas is Mother’s Day. Anyone can get Mum champers, choccies, flowers or perfume, but how about thinking outside the square and getting her a copy of Dreamer, Drifter, Drunk? What’s Mum’s Day got do with a book of this ilk, you may ask? Somewhat surprisingly, 56% of purchases have been by women. Admittedly, the gender differential was given a boost by big-hearted Debbie Whiting, of Utopia Financial Services, buying two boxes as gifts for her staff. Some of the informed Mums of Perth have had this to say about Dreamer, Drifter, Drunk.
