In addition to my essay about my relationship to the Gwendy books, this edition contains a two-page spread of Castle Rock by Glenn Chadbourne

Love the town depiction.
This is not a post about proofs, per se, but more of a post about the "Godfather of Proofs", John Hanic. Earlier this week, I was in Cleveland, Ohio, and had the pleasure of spending about 3 hours with John and visiting with him about King, his proof collection, collecting manuscripts, and life. I also got to lay eyes on John's vast collection and was overwhelmed; however, the highlight of the trip was visiting with John. In my opinion, the best gift anyone can offer anyone else is their time and wisdom and I felt so privileged to pick his brain and that he gave me so much of his time. In advance of our visit, I emailed John a laundry list of questions and he patiently and graciously answered them all. I am happy to report that John is in good spirits, is sharp of mind, and is making the best of his situation. I am hopeful that I will be back in Cleveland in the near future and John and I can continue our conversation. Thank you, John!
I always go to John when I have a proof question!
Proof of that is my latest proof purchase!
