Today we contacted a few companies, asking if they would like to sponsor my book. We sent off some emails and created a letter that detailed exactly what the company would gain from the sponsorship. We got this tip from Bookmarket.com. It is a great idea, I'm hoping the companies realize this. It may have been better to contact them earlier, because this gives them just enough time to think about it. We'll see what happens.
I also designed some business cards with a program I have, Business Card Composer. It is really easy to use and they came out great. I printed them from home, but eventually I plan on taking them to a print shop so they will look more professional. You can get 100 printed for about $50, maybe even cheaper if you shop around.
This is one I had printed for Djing while I was in Austra

This is the one I made today:
It's simple, but effective. I may change it a bit later, but for now I have other things to focus on. I still need to finish the cover. I may use Krystal's picture, after I play around with in in Photoshop. I don't want everyone to be able to recognize her. She's my future wife, so of course I'll make it very tasteful.
Since I am laying the book out myself, I am going to watch some training videos about Adobe InDesign. By next week I should be a professional book-layer-outer.
