* At The Tavern on The Green in New York City, April 6, 1999. One of five stories that comprised "Hearts in Atlantis". The book is written in King's own hand.
At the party at each place setting was a copy of the book, a printed envelope stamped with peace symbols and a chain with a peace emblem attached. Also given out were signed both first AND second printings of The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon and a four page 25 question King trivia quiz.
 
Reportedly, approximately 28-42 copies were left on the table and thrown out by staff that night. None were recovered from trash. Stephen was so disgusted that drunk guests did this, that he took the remaining 380+ copies and placed them in his office safe in Bangor, where they remain to this day. 24 copies of an unsigned proof state having a form letter from Michael Alpert also exist
