Dean Brooks 8 years 3 months ago Posts: 212	Here's a new FOCUS. Go through Amazon and look up any books containing a Retro theme. We might as well start batting ideas back and forth in regards what we would want this book to be about. The link down below contains everything I found under "retro" in the Books section. The very first entry is something for housewives. Housewives? Come on, guys, if this book isn't written the sky is going to light on fire and melt the world, alright? LINK TO AMAZON

Dean Brooks 8 years 2 months ago Posts: 212	About my proposal for a retrojunk book: Check this out Looks like someone else understands the readiness of the literary marketplace for the coming sub-genre "retroir." The banner advertising this guy's book doesn't link to any further info, so you'll have to keep a look out for further updates. But the point is clear. "Retroir" is here, and as a budding cottage industry only the first will profit. Oh well, I tried.

geoffreydean 8 years 2 months ago Posts: 4	I'd like to add my voice to the board here and say that I'd be honored to do either articles or art for the book, but regardless love the idea of the book. Also, even though there might be someone else doing something LIKE this, that doesn't mean a RetroJunk book (maybe even eventually in volumes) wouldn't sell. Maybe it could be done where one or two writers would tackle a certain theme or show that seems to reoccur in our articles here OR it could be some kind of...best of the best of RetroJunk deal. It wouldn't have to be very expensive initially but if the book were shown to the right people and the book were craftily edited and stylishly designed, I see no reason an RJ book couldn't do well, especially if it were sold in smaller, niche places first and then when interest gained (and it would gain) another, more finessed edition could come out for sale on maybe a bigger scale. Just some thoughts. I know I don't have a huge amount of articles on here and I might not have a whole lot of clout or RetroJunk street cred or whatever but I would be behind a book like that 100%. That's right. Street cred.

System 8 years 2 months ago Posts: 74809	i think getting a large amount of people who enjoy commenting in detail on their favorite sites and shows can be perfect. combine all that into one book with amateur photos or drawn pictures mixed along with an older seniority type of trip, something for everyone basically.

Cutsman 8 years 2 months ago Posts: 39	An idea for the cover. We can use an old Mead spiral note-book apperance, and have a bunch of stickers on it like Skeletor, Mario Bros. ect. (Running with the idea of X-E's blog heading) I'd be willing to contribute in any way I could, whether writing an article (althought my first was hit, or miss) or whatever It would just be neat to be apart of it.

Bomberman 7 years 27 days ago Posts: 3309	I would love this, but I'd appreciate if you did the late '90s (basically 1970-2000) too, because I'm only sixteen and that's the period I basically grew up in. Also this site has a lot of things from the late '90s anyway, so I don't think it'd hurt.
