Just noticed on the Poisoned Pen Bookstore website that Richard Chizmar is doing a discussion/signing for his new book Memorials on October 24th. Will have to try to swing by for that event since the bookstore is in my neck of the woods.

Thanks. I really cheer for quick sell outs as well. :-)

Congrats! I'm trying to do the same thing but it's definitely hard. Beyond my Thunderstorm purchases, I've been pretty good lately. I was very proud that I was able to pass on the Suntup Swan Song (and even happier it has sold out to take the option away)!

The products being offered haven't interested me in many years. Plus I have a few personal opinions which shall be kept to myself.
Small press book publishers should be publishing books, be supportive of other small press publishers, and practice top notch customer care. It's the only model that brings about sustainability.

Without wanting to get into a bashing session, any particular reason why? I haven't made a mailing list purchase in quite a while, but I still like to see them, just in case.

Originally posted by RonClinton View PostThanks, Mike -- and I can't agree more: of all things Centipede has done and plans to do, their Woolrich books are near -- if not 'at' -- the top of my list.

I don't believe I ever followed up and posted what this special item was, so if I did forgive my redundancy, but if I didn't, this is what made my year (and then some): a Cornell Woolrich signed letter to his sometimes agent, Harold Swanson, which he not only signs it w/ an accompanying handwritten postscript, but references THE BRIDE WORE BLACK, the novel that in the year of this letter would launch Woolrich’s career as the 20th century’s finest novelist of suspense and noir -- and one of my favorite authors of all time.
