"The Campaign" tells the story of what happens when a small ad firm expands and finds itself with more business than they can handle, just as the Sassi Sausage company comes to them wanting them to produce a Super Bowl ad for them. The business side of the firm sees the millions in potential revenue from such an ad, but the creative side is already grossly over-taxed.
When push comes to shove, Sara Hackman, the lead creative writer issues a challenge to the suits. "If you think what we do is so easy, then take the ad and do it yourselves!" To her shock and dismay, they do just that. After all, how hard can it be?
Well, it turns out it can be pretty hard. Their star pig dies, their producer flees the country fearing arrest, the budget is in shambles, and the deadline is fast approaching. Can the suits find a way to get the ad done, and will it be effective?
"The Campaign" is inspired by Tracy Kidder's "The Soul of a New Machine." While reading that for at least the tenth time the author thought, "What if I wrote a fictional nonfiction book?" Thus was born "The Campaign."
An earlier draft was entered in the 2012 Breakthrough Novel Award and made the top fifty of five thousand general fiction entries. A prize from that contest was a Publisher's Weekly review of the submitted manuscript that concluded with, "An original plot, solid characters, and a good jolt of humor make this a winner." Just unfortunately not 'the' winner. Minor revisions have been made, but the story is essentially the same.

A truly entertaining book! It definitely was an easy read and totally kept my interest. I don't have the time to read as much as I would like, but this book grabbed me from the beginning and I didn't want to put it down. The characters are easy to get to know and very likable. I really enjoyed each one's personality and I definitely enjoyed Mr. Shinn's sense of humor. I am looking forward to his next book.Product details

I really enjoyed reading this book. It was a delightful, quick read with engaging characters, fast-paced action, well-developed plot, and good humor throughout. I would not hesitate recommending it to others, and definitely look forward to more works by this author. Good job!
Such a good book. So much to enjoy - the story itself, the characters, the authors humor and
imagination, the flow of the book was so easy to follow. It more than kept my interest from beginning to end - I didn't want to put it down.
Really looking forward to Shinn's next book, and hopefully down a road he'll write a sequel
to "The Campaign." It left this reader wanting more of WNLT and the characters.
I don't often laugh out loud while reading books, even ones I find funny, but I did with this one.Many times. It's a really quick read that's easy to get into and hard to put down. The scenario is ridiculous and realistic all at the same time and the characters are fantastic. I just loved this story from start to finish, and the humor is perfect.
I enjoyed this book! Learned a lot about the advertising business. Loved the characters and the story. I would love a sequel.
Funny. Read it. You'll enjoy it. I did. I'm out of words. I really am. Rating for book. Rest for .
I enjoyed the story, although I think it needed a little more editing. Sometimes the author wrote the same thought two different ways. The Sara character and the funeral were so over the top I found myself skipping them. Still it was entertaining and the author seems to have much knowledge about an ad campaign is created.
An insider's peak at an agency that hits a home run and gets in far over its head, and the writer who chronicles the whole thing. Full of odd characters including America's favorite pig, it's a fun read.
Note I've exchanged comments on a forum with the author, but don't know him personally. My opinions are my own.
