— Germany

IS THIS BOOK ABOUT ME? AM I MENTIONED?
If you have to ask, then no, it probably isn’t about you. If you are mentioned, it’s by first name only…unless I felt the need to protect your name, in which case, I gave you a fake name.
OH, CRAP.
Naw, you don’t need to be worried. It’s nothing insulting.
WHAT IS THE BOOK ABOUT?
Copy/pasted from Amazon: What do you do when your ex leaves you for his A-list actress ex girlfriend? How do you land a musician boyfriend? What’s it like to make a total jackass of yourself when you meet that actor you’ve had a crush on for years? What would When Harry Met Sally… look like in 2013? Am I hungry? These questions and more are answered and explored by Almie Rose in I FORGOT TO BE FAMOUS, essays and how-to’s about dating, relationships, living in Los Angeles, and how they all crash into each other, like the car chase scene in the mall in the Blues Brothers movie, which she hasn’t seen, but is not at all opposed to.
WHO IS THE A-LIST ACTRESS?
I can’t tell you that.
WHY NOT?
I don’t want to. And I don’t want to get sued.
OKAY WELL THEN WHO IS THE ACTOR YOU MET YOU HAD A BIG CRUSH ON?
I can’t tell you that either. I think I left enough clues though where you would be able to guess.
HOW MUCH IS THE BOOK?
It’s $2.99 in the USA and around that price everywhere else.
SO I CAN PRE-ORDER IT NOW BUT WHAT DAY DOES IT COME OUT?
Monday, July 1.
HOW LONG IS THE BOOK?
It’s slightly over 50 pages. It’s really short. I’ve vomited longer than it takes to read the book.
…WHAT?
Sangria. Never again.
WHAT IF I LIKE IT OR DON’T LIKE IT AND WANT TO LET YOU KNOW?
You can email me here, follow me on Twitter, or add me on Facebook.
WHAT IF I DON’T HAVE KINDLE?
You already asked that, but it’s okay. You can download a free Kindle reader to read the book on your computer, phone, or tablet. The book is also available on iTunes.
WHERE CAN I READ MORE OF YOUR WRITING?
Here on this blog. Also Hello Giggles, The Frisky, Thought Catalog, and many other places that you can find on my website, Almierose.com. And I post videos at YouTube.com/TheApocalypstick.
I’M YOUR PARENT/RELATIVE/FRIEND OF YOUR PARENT. SHOULD I READ THIS BOOK?
I would really, really prefer if you didn’t.
WHAT IF YOU DIDN’T ANSWER MY QUESTION HERE?
Comment on this post!
WHY AM I SHOUTING?
I DON’T KNOW! BUT YOU ARE! YOU’RE SHOUTING, YOU’RE SHOUTING, YOU’RE SHOUT— (gets hit on the hand with a candlestick.)
This just made me sad. Not because it actually IS sad, but more because I want to read your book so bad and I won`t be able to (for the time being), because I am from Germany and if it is not available in the Netherlands, chances are it is not available in Germany either, right? So please, try to get a little more famous (famouser? – I am not sure, I don`t have to know!), so that big bosses in germany start to publish you and then I will actually be able to read your essays and probably laugh my ass off. Pretty please and thank you very much!
Aw! I’m currently trying to figure out which countries it will be available in. I searched “Amazon Germany” and I THINK you can get it. Here’s the link: http://www.amazon.de/Forgot-Famous-relationships-beautiful-ebook/dp/B00DNG4S1A/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1372539200&sr=8-1&keywords=i+forgot+to+be+famous
And thank you! xoxo.
It definitely is available in Germany. The Netherlands doesn’t have an amazon, so I don’t know why this person found any relevance in your book being available in the Netherlands. But dutchies can probably get it from amazon.co.uk. But I already checked yesterday, and it is available for 2.07 euro on amazon.de!
I actually know Almie and know who the famous actor is. I’m broke so if anyone wants to know I’ll tell for a price!
YES, IT BEGINS! YES!
Congrats on the book Almie! I’ll be sure to check it out 🙂
Thank you! It’s inexpensive and easy to swallow, like the kind of wine you buy when you need a last minute gift for a dinner party and you don’t want to be cheap but you want to bring something good and enjoyable and for under $10.
So, like, actually Austria and not Australia? This seems backwards.
Also, congrats!!!
Yes. Austria. Edelweiss, Edelweiss. Bless my homeland forever.
I don’t know why Amazon and Kindle do the things they do. I don’t know how their distributing stuff works or why. Your guess is as not a bad guess as mine!
And thank you!!!
Damn this faraway continent.
I’ll find a way to hack the system somehow!
Why must you be funny and I’m not? LIFE ISN’T FAIR, WAAAH! But anyway, I’ll get it as soon as I can!(: and I know who else it’s about but I ain’t telling! *sticks tongue out* unless you sneak me across the border, then we’ll see/I’ll decide then/
everyone: STOP READING, AND CLOSE THIS TAB NOW!(:
almie: I won’t(:
thanks. I bought the book on amazon! Looking forward to reading it soon
