I got some GREAT feedback about my book from a piercer:

First off i want to start by thanking you for everything you do for the piercing industry, i have been making piercings for almost five years, and i just wanted to tell you that you make me strive to be the best piercer i can be. ive read your book cover to cover like fifty times, it changed the way i pierce, and think about piercings. just wanted to thank you for everything.

My reply:

Cody,

Wow! Thanks so much for the fantastic feedback. I am absolutely thrilled to hear that my book has had such a big impact on your work! And I appreciate you letting me know.

If you have any questions that weren't answered in my book, feel free to ask!

Did you know I write a monthly magazine column too? There are free archives available of all the columns I've written for Pain Magazine (answering piercing questions) are here. My article is usually on page 16.

You can also get a free subscription to your studio by requesting it through that website.

Additionally, I have videos available if you want to see me piercing: http://clips4sale.com/10557  (They're not "how-to" videos, per se, but they do show a lot of information, too!) I think you would enjoy them.

I teach every year at the annual conference for the Association of Professional Piercers. You don't have to be a member to attend: http://www.safepiercing.org/conference/

Take care!
