Nextbrick interview about ULBG

Filed under: — site admin @ 11:10 pm

I was really pleased to hear from Joel at Nextbrick. We did a back-and-forth email interview that actually worked out pretty well. It gave me time to come up with all sorts of clever answers. :)

You can read the entire interview here –> Nextbrick.net interview

And be sure to check out the rest of Joel’s blog. He’s got a fresh way of looking at the hobby.

A new way to buy ULBG - Free Shipping!

Filed under: — site admin @ 10:55 pm

No Starch Press is offering an interesting way for you to buy a copy of The Unofficial LEGO Builder’s Guide. Just visit their site and head to the page for my book. There you’ll find a button marked ‘Buy the PDF". Yes, that’s right, you can buy a soft copy of the book and have it delivered right away. No waiting and best of all, no shipping charges. This method of buying the book may appeal to folks in certain countries where international shipping charges can be high.

If you’re interested, here’s the page you’ll want to check out: ULBG in PDF form.

Of course, the actual printed book is still available and can also be ordered through No Starch, or from your favorite online retailer or local bookseller.

Go inside The Unofficial LEGO Builder’s Guide for an in-depth tour

Filed under: — site admin @ 8:35 pm

The net offers such easy access to information that I’ve always thought of it as a way to help people find out about and then find out more about The Unofficial LEGO Builder’s Guide.

Apotome.com sat with nothing more than a “Coming Soon” page for nearly 4 years before I finally turned it into a resource for the book. And while I’m not yet done I have now added a page that I think will really help people find out more about what’s inside the book and in turn help them make the decision to buy it.

That page is called (appropriately enough) —> Inside the Book

It talks about the book in much greater depth than you’ll read on Amazon.com or even on the back of the book itself. It also includes all of the FAQ questions/answers I’ve already posted here on the blog, but in a much more organized and easy-to-read fashion. I think this gives a fair, detailed and interesting look at the book. Hopefully you agree.

Oh, and if you’re really bored, try —> About the Author :)

All the best,
Allan B.
