No, I’m not talking about a professional basketball game, though that would be fun to watch. I’m talking about the Joint Statistical Meetings in Miami Beach later this month. Julie Platt, Sharon Brandon and myself will be attending JSM July 31-August 4. A conference in August. In Miami. Um, can you say hot?

Good thing we’ll be setting up shop in the air-conditioned exhibit hall, ready to talk about all things related to SAS Publishing. You can get a first-hand look at our SAS and JMP statistics books. We’ll have many available for sell on-site, plus we’re offering free shipping in the U.S. And, you’ll get a 20% conference discount. Now, that’s hot…in a cool kind of way!

In addition to buying books, you can preview some of our upcoming titles. We’ll have preview copies available for you to peruse. If you like what you see, you can sign up on an interest list to be notified when the book is available. You can also sign up to review any of our upcoming titles.

And, last but not least, I’ll be looking for authors to write statistics-related topics for us. If you have an interest in writing and have a good story to share, let’s talk. At any rate, be sure to make plans to come by the booth (#504) and say hello. I’ll be the one standing near the air condition vent!
