Thanks Ari.

Thanks Brian.
Thanks Alan. I can't wait for the finished book.
Thanks Tim.

You're going to need a bigger house, Jon! LOL. Great stuff!
You don't know my kind.....You don't my mind.....Dark necessities are part of my design.....
I'm sure glad I don't collect Cronin! Between that and the Hill variants I'd be done for. Congratulations Jon. The black edges are cool. Nice to have a change from the red.
Great new Justin Cronin stuff Jon,.... damn... this year he probably not visit my hometown at his German promo tour.

Cool Cronin stuff!
Thanks Brian. I don't know about a bigger house but I certainly need to extend the bookshelves into a second room.
Thanks Paul. I know what you mean- I've filled almost a whole shelf with just The Passage Trilogy.
Thanks Frank. I hope he does go to Hamburg but unfortunately he did not tour near me on his UK tour.
Thanks Dan. Some of the promo items I haven't seen elsewhere, like the bag and window sticker.
Some really cool promotional items there Jon! Congratulations!
Nice stuff, Jon! Really like those black edges!!
Very cool collection. I recently started to collect. Hope to get to your level one day.

Rare Proof Wednesday Part 16 - I was hoping to post a very scarce UK proof today but it did not arrive in the post today, so it will have to wait until next weeks RPW. I did not know this UK partial proof existed until two days ago as it is not on the list and I have never seen one posted. Therefore, I will post these two US proofs of moderate rarity and which are occasionally available. The Billy Blockade was produced in a 60 copy print run.
Proof #110 - Stephen King - Insomnia - US Advance Uncorrected Proof
Proof #111 - Stephen King - Billy Blockade - US Advance Reviewers Uncorrected Proof

That sounds VERY exciting! Any hints? Which decade is it from?
