2010: In the immortal words of John Green, “I don’t want to brag but I am mentioned in this book.” He said in a vlog post (Oct 2010) holding my "Last Words" book, I was blown away – John’s millions of followers (video) & a couple of tweets in 2012 by John pushed me up the Amazon charts--It led to many great things for my book.
2019: Bill Brahms: “I don’t want to brag but I am mentioned in this book.” Last month hulu released an 8-part series of Looking for Alaska (John Green’s first novel)—Alaska had sold millions of copies. With the Hulu series came a new release of John’s novel. Cool thing John now mentions me in the back section of this edition of the book. Thanks John! I hope my FB post helps increase your readership : ) LOL
[I checked out the series--watched the first 3 episodes--excellent (Rotten Tomatoes 91% / 94%)]
While writing this post I found out John actually mentioned me/my book in the 10th Anniversary edition (2015) too -- Belated thanks!
Saw a new audio-book version for release this year. Sadly it didn't include the back section from the later editions of Alaska; uses notes from 2005 – so Wil Wheaton (who voices the new audio-book) does not say my name/my book in the audio. LOL. I'm OK with that (more of a Star Wars fan than Star Trek). But I'm very happy with John's shout out in the new print/book edition of Alaska.
