Yes, it is true. And just in the nick of time. Christmas is right around the corner, and now, you can give the gift of MMM. Not MMM exactly, but something from MMM. It is a small book, with pictures and not a lot of words so even UofU fans can enjoy it.
“Failed Family Mottos” is the perfect gift for someone that you don’t want to spend a lot of money on, but still make them feel special. It is a full-color gift book filled with things to make you smile and wince. Often simultaneously.
Buy BEFORE December 1st, and I will make sure it is in your hands by December 10th – just in time to hide it, and forget where you put it until the day after Christmas. AND you can get a personalized, signed copy with a heartfelt “shout-out” to you, or your loved one.
Purchase AFTER December 1st, and you’ll be taking your chances because the first print run is small.
The price? $7.95. A pittance, really.
A small price to pay for joy and happiness. (And you might enjoy it too.)
Shipping and handling: $2.50, for up to 5 books, Then $5.00 for 6 and up. International? Dunn yet – email me.
Still not convinced? Here are actual Failed Family Mottos from the book “Failed Family Mottos”. Some of you are thinking, “I’m going to try and find his old post that had some of these.” But alas, it is no longer there. I wasn’t born yesterday, and I understand there is something about free cows and milk and the dairy industry and book publishing.
But here is a handful of free samples. Please do not “Pin” these. Thanks!
Now we own one! Thank you! 🙂
Loving this!!! I read but don’t do a whole lot of commenting. I actually read some of the comments and I saw something about “Reverence plates”…I think I missed that post. What are they and would they go well with the book as a gift? I mean if I can get a better shipping rate I may be willing to buy more. Spend money to save-that is the American way right? 🙂
Here’s the post about Reverence Plates

If yo are looking at buying a mixture of plates and books, email me at middleagedmormonman@gmial.com
LOVE THEM!!! I am thinking my 2 guys both need one. I have to sit between them to separate them…I am talking about my son and HUSBAND. Do you guys ever grow up? I will be emailing you with my order for sure. Thanks for sharing your awesomeness!!!
Any chance it will be available as an Ebook?

Maybe?? It isn’t text driven, so it wouldn’t look good on a Kindle or Nook. I might be able to make a graphics-driven version for the iPad and Kindle Fire, etc. But probably not until next year. (Gotta wring out whatever money I can from the hard copy.)
Can we get a deal with the purchase of books and Reverence plates?
Yes. I can probably get better shipping rates. Email me with what you have in mind and I’ll see what I can do. middleagedmormonman@gmail.com
Well lookie here! Half my Christmas shopping can now be DONE!
Can we see what the book itself looks like?
Yes. When it arrives at your mailbox!
You have outdone yourself. Too funny!
Can I get it without the very special forward? If I wanted forwards I’d un-filter that one EFY friend.
But maybe I’ll just give it to my mom for Christmas. MOM DON’T BUY IT I’LL BUY IT
No, but I imagine an exacto knife would do the trick.
I thought you liked my forwards! I’m sure forewords from MMM are better though.
I’ll start forwarding you forewords instead. Let me look through my books . . .
I would gladly accept forward submissions.
This looks great. Im looking forward to it.
Now know what I’ll say when I want my kids to go get their little sister…”return with Honor.”
LOL, Jocelyn!!!
