I am working my 40th book. In the spirit of titles like "Led Zeppelin II", "Chicago III", "Rocky IV", "Star Wars V", I am going with the EXCEL-lent title of "MrExcel XL - The 40 Greatest Excel Tips Of All Time".
Get it? "40" in Roman numerals is "XL"... which sounds like "Excel".
I want to make this a cool book. Full color. Glossy paper. With hand-drawn illustrations from 40 different illustrators. All of that adds up to a lot of expense, so I have launched an Indiegogo campaign to pre-sell autographed copies of the book and offer some great perks. For example, everyone who donates will get their name printed in the book. You can vote for which tips are worthy of being in the "Greatest 40 of all time". This is a cool geeky gift for your spouse's favorite Excel fan.
Overnight, the campaign hit the goal to cover the color printing plates. However, I am still pre-selling the book to afford to hire cartoonists and illustrators.
Thank you!

- If you would like to be in the book, send someone to http://mrx.cl/xlbook40 to buy a copy of the book.
- If you know of a great illustrator / doodler / cartoonist, I am hiring 40 of them. Have them message me from Indiegogo.
- If you think it is a cool idea, would you mind posting on Twitter, Facebook and/or Linked in, something along the lines of "Last minute gift idea for you favorite data analyst: Be in the next @MrExcel book http://mrx.cl/xlbook40"
Thank you!
