The Houston Astros cheated Major League Baseball from 2017-18!!!! Is that how we teach our kids to play the game now?????
Fantastic result. Looking forward to seeing what this next one is, I'm sure it's going to be spectacular.
Bill, you're a real wind up merchant but it certainly builds anticipation and peaks the interest nerve centre!
Selling EVERYTHING! Come and get it!
(Except my Gunslinger First Edition. That ain't going nowhere. It's the only one I'm keeping, can't let that go)
mY BIDS KEEP GETTING REJECTED.....Others are beating me with higher bid everytime I try.
I'm the highest bidder! If everyone can now forget that they saw this auction, I'll be a happy man
"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
OK a bit slow typing on this PS4. That is a great item Bill congrats on getting this organised! Clearly this is going to do really well.

This is my finest accomplishment, though a heckuva a lot of credit has to go to, Don Maitz who is a very dedicated supporter of the Haven Fund. All I did was make a comment as an aside, and he ran with it. Many thanks to, Don for this piece and to "Joe315" for donating the book. I hope it does really well. Of course, thanks to all of you members that bid and contribute to the Haven Fund. God Bless you all.

I've paid my dues
Time after time.
I've done my sentence
But committed no crime.
And bad mistakes ‒
I've made a few..........

Nice one Merlin. This will go through the roof.
Coming from you, that is high prasie indeed. However, most of the compliments should go to, Mr Maitz. He was the driving source and should get the attention.

In fact, I am told his wife wrote a very good book as well. A review should be forthcoming.

For some reason seeing this auction made me think, "I wonder if anybody has a remarqued The Stand S/L". I've never seen one.
Would you let Bernie Wrightson draw in your copy given the opportunity? I'll bet even the very pro-remarque types would have to think hard.
Discuss! (after bidding on this way cool Desperation, of course)

Very interesting that you should mention Don Maitz's wife Janny Wurts and her book To Ride Hell's Chasm as I was wanting to mention it here also.
My wife Deanna grabbed the copy I got from Don in Sarasota and did not put it down (or sleep) throughout our flight the next day to AZ or our return red-eye flight home.
Deanna typically does not read Fantasy however the plot and character development had her visualizing the Princess, the King, his guards, the castle and kingdom vividly as presented through Janny's words.
She is looking forward to when she has some post vacation time to get back into the story and see where this vibrant tale carries her.
Janny Wurts is the author of eighteen books, twenty nine short stories and is both and artist and writer. Through her combined talents as a writer/illustrator, Janny has immersed herself in a lifelong ambition: to create a seamless interface between words and pictures that will lead reader and viewer into the imagination. Her lavish use of language invites the mind into a crafted realm of experience, with characters and events woven into a complex tapestry, and drawn with an intensity to inspire active fuel for thought. Her research includes a range of direct experience, lending her fantasy a gritty realism, and her scenes involving magic crafted with intricate continuity. A self-taught painter, she draws directly from the imagination, creating scenes in a representational style that blurs the edges between dream and reality. She makes few preliminary sketches, but envisions her characters and the scenes that contain them, then executes the final directly from the initial pencil drawing.
To Ride Hell's Chasm (Borrowed from Good reads): When Princess Anja fails to appear at her betrothal banquet, the tiny, peaceful kingdom of Sessalie is plunged into intrigue. Two warriors are charged with recovering the distraught king's beloved daughter. Taskin, Commander of the Royal Guard, whose icy competence and impressive life-term as the Crown's right-hand man command the kingdom's deep-seated respect; and Mykkael, the rough-hewn newcomer who has won the post of Captain of the Garrison – a scarred veteran with a deadly record of field warfare, whose 'interesting' background and foreign breeding are held in contempt by court society.

I am told David may have some copies of To Ride Hell's Chasm available at Bett's Books
