    Those are only for the giveaways BROWNINGS CHILDE

    Hopefully something will come along that you can put them on but we can't do it for auctions.

    Ending date should be March 15th but I started it right after midnight so it may decide to go until the 16th.

    This copy was signed in the parking lot outside the Barnes & Noble in Atlanta after King's appearance there for Under the Dome last fall. I didn't really have anything to do with this donation -- credit due unto others.

    There's something else y'all. The slipcase that is included with the book is, according to Dave H. of Overlook Connection, the prototype for a case they are working on for The SK Illustrated Companion. There's no writing on it, but the book fits it wonderfully and is in excellent condition. For those who have seen the book, you know how tough this was to find even in good condition. Good luck y'all.

    Well, bummer, I've been outbid already.

    I must now enter mode and prepare a counter-attack.

    Aw Bev, you have always been such a great supporter of this fundraiser and having time for fans to sign a book deserves some appreciation.

    But thanks for pointing that out.

    I'll ship it as soon as I can, but give me a few days sarah; my wife had chemo Wednesday and isn't doing very well today. It may be Monday before I can send it out.

    Aw Bev, you have always been such a great supporter of this fundraiser and having time for fans to sign a book deserves some appreciation.

    But thanks for pointing that out.
    Yes, Bev, but you have done a lot for the fundraiser just being here on tdt.com, signing your books for giveaways and auctions, and providing great insight into King's writing for all fans.
    It'll take a lot more than words and guns,
    A whole lot more than riches and muscle.
    The hands of the many must join as one.
    And together we'll cross the river.
