Lately I've been reading Diana Gabaldon and George R.R. Martin, so of course I had to find 1st editions. I got to meet Diana this summer and she signed bookplates for all my books. Very nice lady. Sometimes I really hate my obsession with collecting books. It was easier when it was just King and Rice.
You can't really see it, but I'm wearing a Dark Tower t-shirt.

A very nice Rice collection. I hadn't heard anything about newer stuff maybe about wolves like you mentioned. I really, really enjoyed the first five or so vampire books and then, starting I guess with THE VAMPIRE ARMAND, I thought they got really boring. Looking forward to a new direction if that is what she is planning. Nice photos. Thanks for posting them.
All very nice, Becca! Congratulations!

Here is the link for her new book coming out. I don't remember where I saw that she was going back to her roots.

Excellent Collection Becca...
That's quite the signature collection, have to admit I'm a bit envious.
Hope to see more in the future.

What an awesome collection!!!!!!!!!!! I am totally green
I thought those SODs were lettered because you have the Gift Editions placed with the book spines inward. Mine (well, the one I have) is facing the other way and that confused me. My normal state of mind anyway.

haha. i want to look thru it but i don't have the time right now.
Please explain the bitterness regarding UTD. Is it because you don't like the the looks of the book or is it something else? I also got IT and I like IT a lot.

i'm bitter because of the publisher. my under the dome was damaged and it took forever to get it taken care of. then the whole cluster with 11/22/63. i had one in my cart at 8:59 that day and then got shut out completely from the site after i tried to check out. i continually tried to call and email the company to try and help me secure a book. they refused to help in any way so i hate them all. i like to send them hate mail when i have nothing to do
p.s not to mention tom gordon limited. i had to cancel that order due to the overwhelmingly high price.
p.p.s. oh yeah and their quality control is crap.
i really do love the story though. should have purchased the uk editions.
on another note... wow, i've had 3 different titles in a week !
Yeah, I'm afraid I used up all my swear words for the week when trying to get the 11-22-63 signed book too. Ordering the UTD was a snap though and it came in brand new shape. Never did take the shrinkwrap off . I finally got an 11-22-63 and had to pay a little more, but I bought it from someone here and the transaction was more then satisfactory.

i didn't know my dome was damaged until i unwrapped it. it was a publishing thing - the boards were messed up like something was spilled on them. i also wanted to make sure they included the signature page.
glad you were able to get the new one. i was offered one but i'm just not willing to dish out the money for it. it's the principle. the sad thing is i still want one. it's what they should have done with dome - something different than the trade.
I almost never take the shrinkwrap off my books (I know I know, shame on me), and now I'm AFRAID to take it off UTD and 11-22-63. I'll just leave it on and assume the best!
