ReplyDeleteI am ordering my copy right now! :).
ReplyDeleteAny possibility you make an ebook version in the future? ;)
You just made my day :)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to read it!
Congrats! Can I ask where does the book ship from, which is the shipping method (and if it is trackable or not) and the expected delivery times to Italy? I was thinking about a Christmas gift.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Marco
Marco, thanks for your support!
ReplyDeleteThe book ships from France or Germany, depending on the destination. The standard shipping method is not trackeable and you can check the expected delivery times to Italy at
Shipping and other Frequently Asked Questions
The delivery times may be longer than usual in this season, but I think that if you order now you will receive it several days before Christmas.
Congratulations on this great achievement! I'm sure the book will be a great success. Your creativity and sense of humor serves as an inspiration to many :) Nice job, Alejandro!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind reply Alejandro (or should I call you Mox?)!
ReplyDeleteI've just ordered a copy of your book.
Just as a FYI, after the PayPal payment, you are directed to this page:
http://mox.ingenierotraductor.com/p/sucessful.html
But copy on this page reads:
"Page not found
Sorry, the page you were looking for in the blog mox's blog does not exist."
Even if the payment was successfull on PayPal and I correctly received the PayPal email confirmation.
I thought I would mention this to you so that you can create a corrrect sucessful.html page on your site.
Thanks,
Marco
Hola!
ReplyDeleteMe gustaría mucho comprar este libro, pero vivo en Alemania, y el sistema de PayPal solo permite compras de España (provincia, etc.)
¿Está disponible en Amazon u otro servicio internacional?
The wait is finally over, how exciting. We are putting it on our blog right away. Mil felicidades -- we know how much work it is. :) Can't wait to get our copies.
ReplyDeleteMarco, thanks a lot for pointing this out. It should be fixed now.
ReplyDeleteMontserrat, gracias por tu interés. Otras personas han comprado el libro desde Alemania sin problemas. Te escribo un correo aparte, creo que sé lo que pasa. El sistema de pago de PayPal no es el más intuitivo (pero es el más seguro).
¡Qué tonta! No vi que se podía cambiar el país...
ReplyDeleteLo acabo de comprar sin ningún problema.
Ahora a leer los comics... :-)
Hi Alejandro:
ReplyDeleteThe sample pages are really, really hard to read.
(Or are they in a rare dialect of Japanese?)
I would scan them again with higher resolution.
I hope you make a lot of money. My wife is already telling me that I should write a book too to finally make some real money ....
Hi Steve,
ReplyDeleteThank you again for the awesome article you wrote for the book.
Thanks for the tip, I changed the sample pages.
If you make a lot of money with a book, please share your secret. My wife is already telling me that I should stop writing silly books to finally make some real money.
Congratulations, Alejandro! I can't wait to put my hands on it and enjoy like a little child! :D

Dear guys,I cannot describe my happiness this morning when i received the Book. This is great. A combination of wit, irony, sarcasm and good-will makes this book specially intereseting and its characters close to the reader. You have got to have your own copy. This is definitely something, we, the translators, needed, to laugh at our own lives and thus more easily overcome the awkward situations we face on a daily basis as freelancers.
ReplyDeleteCongrats Alejandro/Mox
Hi Alejandro/Mox,

Hope you sell it out soon and publish a sequel!
Your book just arrived, it's very very nice, well printed and bound. I look forward to reading it in the weekend! I strongly suggest everybody to buy it and give it as a present to colleagues, they will certainly appreciate it.
