Eldot Makes Personal Appearance March 9 at Tucson Festival of Books
Portland, OR (PRWEB) February 21, 2013
In cooperation with Xlibris Publishing, Diphra Enterprises is pleased to present Eldot in person for the first time. He will meet the public and sign complimentary copies of Barr’s Meadow, the first book in the Julian’s Private Scrapbook series.
“… how in the **** can you maintain anonymity at a book signing… wear pince-nez and a crêpe mustache?” one colleague asked. What Eldot will wear and whether he will reveal the name behind the pen name will be known only to those who pick up their signed copy at the Festival.
“Anonymity is not my goal,” says the author. “My hope is to deflect unexpected questions from hitting family and friends; the pioneering and controversial coming of age series of books could be upsetting to some.”
Eldot will be signing at Author Solutions booths 201-6 on Sunday, March 9 between 2 and 3 p.m.
The Tucson Festival of Books is March 7-9 on the University of Arizona campus in Tucson, Ariz. A literary oasis for book lovers and authors alike, the annual event welcomes authors representing a wide variety of genres including fiction, nonfiction, children’s fiction, cooking, and poetry. More than 100,000 readers are expected to browse through 522 exhibit booths.
For such a large event, the location is relatively compact; it’s on the Mall along East University Boulevard, stretching from the Old Main area to just east of Cherry Avenue, and to a few nearby buildings.
The University will be on spring break, so Festival participants and spectators won’t be competing with students for parking. Public parking is available free in the University’s surface lots and in six garages: Cherry Avenue, Highland Avenue, Main Gate, Park Avenue, Sixth Street and Tyndall Avenue. (The Second Street Parking Garage is reserved.)
Free public wi-fi is available on the campus, along with a full food court and varied snack vendors.

Web2XMM.com Makes It Easy to Cash In on the USPS 2012 Mobile Commerce and Personalization Promotion
Irvine, CA (PRWEB) June 19, 2012
What is your time worth? Would you spend ten minutes to save thousands of dollars? Web2XMM.com makes the bold claim that it allows business mailers to do exactly that. By utilizing MindFireInc’s new online service, companies can take advantage of the USPS 2012 Mobile Commerce and Personalization Promotion. According to the USPS website, during July and August of 2012 the promotion will “provide business mailers with an upfront 2 percent postage discount on Standard Mail® and First-Class Mail® letters, flats, and cards (presort and automation only) that include a two-dimensional (2-D) barcode or print/mobile technology that can be read or scanned by a mobile device”.
Web2XMM.com is a self-service website that allows anybody to launch cross-media marketing campaigns by uploading a mail list. For 1/4 cent per contact, each contact receives a 3-page mobile-optimized microsite, personalized URL and QR Code. Each mail list comes with a real-time report containing activity, profile information and survey responses that can be downloaded on-demand.
MindFireInc’s long history in the cross-media software industry made it possible to deliver the services required by the USPS promotion well within the 2% savings margin. “Personalized microsites are what we do,” said Patrick Martin, lead programmer on Web2Xmm.com. “We leveraged our experience and knowledge to create an automated solution that is quick, easy and inexpensive to use.” When asked about the customer response so far, Patrick replied, “It sells itself. Once someone realizes that the more they use it the more money they save, it’s like they just won the lottery.”
Web2XMM.com launched on June 12, 2012.
