I’m in a Christmas-y mood. Blame it on the massive amount of fudge I’ve already ingested or the fact that I’ve listened to “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch” roughly ten times today and it’s barely noon. I’ve decided on a last-minute type of whim that I’m going to offer a discount on my ebook for writers, Out of Thin Air: The Freelance Writer’s Guide to Finding Work When Bills are Due. It’s not something for everybody, but if you’re a writer who has ever struggled, even just a little, this is definitely a guide you need.

How big of a discount, you ask? As big of one as you want.

Regularly, Out of Thin Air costs $21, which is a fair price considering that if you put even one or two of my techniques into effect, you should easily make that back ten times over within the month. Many will easily make 100 times that using the techniques in this book. I’ve made even more.

Regardless, it doesn’t help you to know that you will make money in the future if you have no money to buy the book today…so from now until Christmas - the next FIVE DAYS ONLY - Out of Thin Air is available for the low, low price of pay what you can.

What the hell does that mean? That means that when you click the “buy” button between now and Christmas, the price will show up as $21, but you can edit it to whatever price you want. If you seriously need this book and don’t have any money to spare, take it for free as my Christmas gift to you - just enter 0.00. If you can only afford to pay half price, pay half price. If you have the money, pay full price. If you pick it up for free, love it, and earn money from it, come back and buy another copy later. Or don’t! No matter what you contribute, I won’t think more or less of you!

What’s the catch? Ok, there is ONE - if you pick up the book at a discounted price, take a moment to share your honest opinions once you have had the chance to read it! Tweet out the link (cc: @allison_boyer) or write a blog post or email a friend or tell your mom about it over figgy pudding. Good or bad, tell someone what you think, and I’ll consider us even! And remember, if you share the link before Christmas, your friends and family members get the “pay what you can” discount as well!

Also: You won’t be put on any kind of a mailing list if you pick up this ebook. It asks for your email address, but ONLY because I need a place to email the ebook! You can sign up for my mailing list separately on the sidebar, but that’s not required to take advantage of this discount.
