[09 Jun 2009|08:00pm] |
AnimeNEXT, the next generation of anime conventions, will be held this weekend, from June 12-14 at the Garden State Exhibit Center and the DoubleTree Somerset Hotel in Somerset, New Jersey.
And Yuricon & ALC Publishing will be there!
We'll have a table in Con Row (ask at the Information Desk where that is) and a Yuri Panel at 6PM on Saturday, June 13. We've got a bunch of fun stuff to talk about and, of course, I'm more than willing to answer any questions I get that I can answer. :-)
We are planning on being at the con on Friday and Saturday only at this point, so don't wait until the last second to drop by and get your copy of Yuri Monogatari 6 or one of our immensely popular Yuri Grab Bags!
I'll look forward to seeing all you Friends of Yuri there!

| Earn a Copy of "Yuri Monogatari 6" through Project Engage |
[15 May 2009|08:55am] |
ALC Publishing recently launched Yuri Monogatari 6 and as we know there are a lot of you who would like a copy of the book but, for one reason or another, cannot get it. Maybe you're in school and can't afford it, or maybe you live somewhere where shipping from Amazon makes it outrageously expensive.
So, we've developed this new Project special for you!
Here's how it works:
"Project Engage" is very simple. Use any and all social media you *already use* to promote YM6 and EARN a copy of YM6 for your efforts!
- Mention Yuri Monogatari 6 in a relevant Forum, Mailing List, Blog post, Twitter about it, or talk about it on your Facebook, MySpace, LiveJournal, Afterellen page, or any other form of social media *that you already use* with a link to either the ALC Page on the Yuricon Shop or Amazon and get *5* points.
- Embed the Yuri Monogatari 6 video trailer (see below) on the any of the social media *you already use,* and get *10* points.
- When you have earned *50* points, email us links to these posts, your age and your address at anilesbocon01 at hotmail dot com with the subject line "Project Engage Links" and we'll send you a copy of "YM6!"
It's that simple.
Here's the IMPORTANT GUIDELINES YOU MUST FOLLOW TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR A BOOK:
1) You MUST be 18 or over. There is no exception to this rule. Include your age in your email the first time. Don't make us chase after you for it.
2) You may not create dummy accounts/blogs or pages for this. If we check and you have no other posts on your blog, or no other posts on the Forum in question, your entry will not count AND you'll make us look bad, like we're spamming the world. So - please only use accounts on places that you already use regularly. More than one link in one place will only count once as well. if you put a link in your sidebar and a link to the video on your blog, it counts once. The point is to get the word in front of as many new eyes as possible!
3) This project is meant to support and promote ALC and YM6. A link followed by a damnation of everything we are doing will not make you any friends. If you want to help us out, we're delighted. If you want us to die a fiery death, don't feel obliged to "help." :-) Lying and cheating to get a book is also not the point. This is to reward folks who *want* to do something concrete to help support us.
4) All links *must* be verifiable. I'm willing to sign up for forums, or friend you, but if you stick them in a private area that no one but you can see, then that's kind of not the point. -_-;;
5) Yes, previous posts, links and embeds count. If you already mentioned YM6 somewhere before today, that is absolutely, positively acceptable. Just collect *50* points worth and you've earned yourself a copy of YM6!
6) If you are not 18+, please feel free to share links and embeds, but at this time we cannot send you a book. However, your support is still very much appreciated and I want to thank you, so email those links and I'll send you an "I Love Yuri" postcard to show our thanks!

Project Engage is open to anyone 18 or over, they do not need to be a member of the Yuricon ML or a reader of Okazu or a LJ member. So feel free to get your friends involved. A few of you banding together *can* get a book to share - the point is to get the word out.
:-)
Thanks and here's to the success of Project Engage!
