Distractions are Good

So I had a friend look through my book to do some light editing (I say “light” because it’s already been edited a lot by myself and others, and I assumed I was close to my final copy, if not there). Well, my book has been butchered.  Taken out back and viciously slaughtered!  There’s blood everywhere. Such a mess.

Anyway, I don’t feel like going through all the gobbledygook right now. I’m going to stay in my “happy I’m almost done my book” mood a little longer.  Which brings me to distractions.  As part of my holiday marketing campaign for BrickWarriors, I decided I wanted to start doing YouTube ads.  Specifically, how cool would it be to have an ad go viral?  Cha-ching cool!  Obviously, you can’t control what goes viral, but we decided there are things that might help boost share-ability.  So we’ve been working on a somewhat inappropriate ad targeted toward adult Lego fans.  And I’m the leading lady!

I know that filming a YouTube ad for a legitimate reason isn’t a distraction per se, but it did successfully divert my attention away from all that blood on my book. Anyway, I’m hoping this distraction will be good for business.  Well, let’s see what you think.  Click on the picture below to watch our ad:
