So which one of you lovely people sent Aaron and me two bookmarks, hmm?

I got them in the mail the other day, postmarked in PA. No name on the envelope, no return address. So will this mysterious person please identify themselves (if for nothing more than to satisfy my curiousity)?

Oh, and thank you, by the way. :huglove:

If your address is in the "where the .... are you" thread, then sometimes things just mysterious show up at your address.

turtlesong - Yup. Surely do, surely.

turtlex,
thank you from the bottom of my heart for the new two breath-takingly beautiful bookmarks. Your mail was the FIRST I got at my new address anyway. Thank you.
I will use them as long as I live till they become dust.

Thanks a lot for the magnet, turtlex. Put it on my fridge and told everyone immediately to be extremely careful about it (I think I'd sulk for a week at least if they made it drop or lost it)

turtlex

My bookmark consists of a 1 1/2 x 3 inch piece of cardboard with an arrow marking what sentence I'm on. I've had it since my first King book The Gunslinger. It's special to me, but it's starting to fray. I'll probably bury it or something serene like that because it's been with me for awhile.

Perchance if you have your name added to the "Where The H..." thread, then you might have a new bookmark enroute.

Oh, that was smooth....:lol:

BeDaN
09-11-2008, 08:30 AM
I don't need a new one, mine has sentimental value. Plus I'm a "busy" reader, lots of times I don't have time to finish a complete page so I like to use a home-made one with an arrow on it so I know exactly where I had to leave off. So unless there's a bookmark out there in the fashion of mine I'm better off making my own.

turtlex
09-11-2008, 07:23 PM
BeDaN -

Um, there might be one headed your way, regardless.

Use it or not, your call.

A gift is a gift, feel free to re-gift if it pleases you.

BeDaN
09-11-2008, 08:15 PM
Well i appreciate it, I just kind of feel like I'm free-loading. I'm keeping an eye out for stuff I can send people in return because you all have been really kind and generous and you all feel like my online family and it's great.

Actually, I think it was turtlesong who called me that after my first batch of bookmarks went out. I didn't want to look like I was fishing for thanks, so they just arrived without anything indicating who they were from.... ie .... Ninja Gifter :ninja:

Letti
09-17-2008, 04:24 AM
Okay, no fan club but tons of thanks. :rose:

Anyway I am using one of your bookmarks in the Dean R. Koontz book I am reading and whenever I open the book and I look at it I think: "Why am I reading this ... when I could read a book from Sai King?". :D

I went out of town for 4 days and when I returned home there was a boatload of mail to open. I rummaged through and the letter that caught my eye first was one that was hand addressed with no return address. Figured I'd start openeing with this one. To my delight there were a few bookmarks and a very cool Gunslinger Inn magnet. Thanks have already been posted in another thread that I am sure this wonderful philanthropist of ours will read! :-)

Hey turtlex - thank you very much for the 2 Bookmarks - they're beautiful, and unexpected.
I was tempted to leave them on the bookcase, but decided to put them to proper use, so the first is now in my current read (re-read: Book 6 of Wheel of Time).

Thank you again.

TLC - You're very welcome. No need to be lonely, though, you've got a whole community of Tower Junkies right here, 24/7. All kidding aside, going away to school is a big deal, and if getting the bookmarks helped at all, I'm very pleased.

theBeamisHome - Wow, yours seemed to have taken the long way around, glad they finally arrived. Just a little ninja gifting :ninja: Enjoy and put them to good use!

P.S.

I was wondering why it didn't have a name or return address-just a vague geographic location-on the letter, but I figured that if there's someone who lived in the keystone state sending me TDT-themed items via snail mail it was you.
