    Ken makes me look small and I'm almost 6'3"!

    It was a lot of fun.

    We had enough time to tell some stories but not nearly enough time to start telling lies!

    Had some things delivered to my hotel whilst I am in the US. First is a copy of Six Stories from David @ Betts. Has some minor shelf wear and a (barely noticeable) spine crease, but comes with the aftermarket slipcase and I got it for a very good price.


    "A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King

    I also got the 13 print signed edition of The Stand portfolio. This thing is WAY bigger than I expected!

    Snap! I have one of those with the slipcase. It's a beautiful book and the slipcase really matches it well. Congratulations! Is this the book you choose with your insurance hospital money?

    Great SIX STORIES and THE STAND portfolio.
    I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.

    I mentioned a while ago that I had some available cash that was paid out by my Medical insurance, I was asked what I would spend it on.... Well here it is...





    Thanks to David @ Betts for providing this from his own collection!

    There is some minor shelf wear to the DJ, but thanks to some sage advice from RF a while back, I have a mint unfolded DJ that will replace it!
