I have the answer.
What about "The Plant"? I'd bid on a really nice bound copy of that.
"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
Great idea Simon... I have been talking to some contacts... the pricing I am getting is really high... I wonder if maybe one of the guys (Brian at CD) would be able to help out?

It would appear that our, fearless leader has made an executive decision (and a very good one, wait until you see!!). However, We (I) are still open to ideas, contact info (for artists we have not utilized in the past) and innovative suggestions for a by the people, for the people, unique 2015 Haven Fund "Constant Reader" auction item.
Seriously, put on your thinking caps folks!!! Search those "contact" books!! This is for charity and I promise will never ever be used for personal gain!! Collection or otherwise. Remember, for any specialized item you folks may come up with "Time" is our enemy. That is why I started this thread so early. This is your member chance to be "Haven Fund" insider's!!!
While I am at it, I could use donations of the following trade 1/1's of the following books:
Rose Madder
Duma Key
The Green Mile (In any form, but only 1/1's)
The Stand (Original or Uncut)
The Wastelands
Everything's Eventual
As a caveat, I'll do my best to make sure you get to "Call" the drawing in any donated book, where at all possible. PM me in advance of donating books listed.
Also, I am still looking to get contact info/introductions to, Les Edwards, Jae Lee, Michael Whelan, Bernie Wrightson, Phil Hale, Glen Orbik and anyone else you can think of that I have not. I have some folks working on info or contacting some of these artists, but first come, first served. Remember, this is all for charity and shall remain as such.
The "Haven Fund Team" is getting an early start this year. Heck, we will have one heckuva total to reach next year, so we need as much help as we can get. Additionally, I am trying to inject "new" life into the array of artists, authors and publishers willing to contribute this year!!! I promise, no more "Haven Fund Whore"!!! From here on in, I am the "Secretary" and Facilitator for the "Haven Fund Team" and we are now "Legion"!!! LOL

Just an update, but TMIDITW has come up with the ultimate Constant Reader/Member Auction Item and we are toiling away to make it happen. Still open for ideas/concepts. We have been able to add the following artists to the team.
Mark Stutzman
Les Edwards
Alan Clark
Darek Kocurek
I emailed Jae Lee and have not heard back. Glen Orbik is willing, but in ill health at this time. He has tentatively agreed to help out next year though (Good Man!!). Feelers out to M. Whelan through a trusted contact. That's all I got right now. Help/suggestions are always welcome and appreciated.
