I know some of you all can do the random number generator (ahem, Julie!) but I went low tech, printed out your comments, ripped them into separate slips with your names on them, folded them into little pieces, and had the Cave Troll fish one out of a shoe box. The Cave Troll was thrilled–he got to help! And allergicmom, you should be thrilled too, because you won!!!!!
Go ahead and e-mail me at amylaneATgreenshillDOTcom, and I can get your address to send you a big box of… well, It’ll probably have the Noro (which inspired a literal feeding frenzy!), and possibly have books, and maybe some more fun stuff thrown in for color, and you can bet I’ll have fun assembling all that! (As I was reading the comments and ripping up the slips, I actually got a little thought bubble for pretty much everybody–it was fun. It was like practicing giving gifts–I totally enjoyed myself.)
And about the book signing–
As far as I know, it will be from 12:30–2:00 at the Borders Express in the Sunrise Mall in Citrus Heights, CA. I do plan to call Susan, the nice lady (manager!) at the store to confirm. (I have a secret fear that she’ll realize I’m self-published and have to cancel, in which case I know you’ll all help me dry my tears and buck up.) The inestimable Lady in Red asked if I get to talk–Lordy, I’d love to, but most of the book signings I’ve seen feature the author sitting sedately, in a dignified manner, behind a table stacked with books. I’m thinking I might not be that sedate–I tend to stand up and bob and weave a lot, and I am used to talking to crowds, so hopefully I won’t let nerves color the true me. Hopefully, it’ll really happen.
Drop me a line, allergicmom–I’m looking forward to shipping that out!
