Now that I have copies of RebelFire: Out of the Gray Zone to go with my boxes of Hardyville Tales, I thought I could offer a little better thank you to some of the people who donated so generously to my Raise-the-Roof fund drive.
I apologize for not having any new books to give; I realize a lot of you already have one or both of these. But … well, maybe you still need an autographed copy or perhaps you might like to give a book to a friend this ChrismaKwanzaaHannukaYule.
So …
If you donated $25 to $49, take your choice of either RebelFire or Hardyville Tales.
If you donated $50 to $99, take ’em both or take two copies of either one.
If you donated $100 to $299, take three, all one kind or mix and match.
If you donated $300 or more, heck, you can have whatever you want. 🙂
(Note to Anonymous and Rockefeller: You, too, should you choose to uncloak.)
The Roof Raiser PayPal donation form didn’t require addresses, so I’ll need to get them from you. If you want books, please just leave a comment on this post using a real email address where it asks for your addy. I’ll see it; no one else will. Then I’ll email to ask which book(s) you want, what name(s) you want me to sign to, and where to send. You don’t have to put any personal info in your comment!
Or if you already have an email address for me, just write and tell me your details.
Please just make your request by Thursday, October 30. I’d like to have all the books in the mail by the end of the month (before I go into deep hermitting).
I’m sorry I don’t have any new books to offer. This feel like an inadequate gesture. But really anything would be inadequate; I can’t tell you what a huge, huge thing you did. Huge.
Gosh, Claire, that’s very generous of you!
Nice of you to say, jed. However, all the generosity was really aimed in my direction!
Oh wow! Yes, thank you.
Kewl. I’ll be in touch with you (and jed and whoever else speaks up) by email ASAP.
Closing down for the night now, but will get in touch tomorrow.
I never expected or wanted anything in return but I just can’t pass up autographed copies. Thank you.
Thank you, Claire….very nice and unexpected.
This helps with my Christmas shopping. I’ve a friend who is a Claire Wolfe fan and, as you might expect, those kinda people are hard to shop for!
Very generous and thoughtful of you Claire! Thankyou!
Okay, I’ve emailed jed, Jeremy, Clark, LibertyNews, Karen, and RW (who emailed me).
To clarify something: I’m sending books only to people who ask. Others may not want books and some people may not want to give me their addresses. So if you donated over $25 to the roof-raiser and you want to take me up on the offer, say so in this comment thread or email me and it shall be done. I MUST hear from you by 10/30/14.
Hard to say no to an autographed copy.
Thanks Claire!
Knitebane — email sent.
I would love to have Rebel Fire! Thank you!
Thanks, Claire. Quite unnecessary and unexpected, but I would appreciate one of each. I think I gave $100 – but you should confirm.
Mary and Gary — Will email you tomorrow for details. And yes, Gary, you’re right. 🙂
I’d be happy with a couple copies of RebelFire; I’m sure I can find at least one teenager who could use the instruction and I’ll probably keep the other. I’ve already got Hardyville Tales, of course.
Thanks.
Okay — The first 11 packages of books either went out this a.m. or will be out this afternoon (2 batches).
I’ve sent emails to but am still waiting to hear back from:
Ellendra
Knitebane
Shel
Mary in Texas — books sent. 🙂
L.P.
Check your spam filters in case my messages ended up there or, if you got my message and already responded, please re-send. Your books will go out after I have more info from you.
Claire, what do you plan to do with the rest of them? How do you plan to sell them?
I don’t remember what I sent. $50 maybe. Anyway, I don’t know how to contact you other than this, so please e-mail me. Thanks,
Pat — I’ll probably put an autographed book offer on eBay for both HT and RF.
Then eventually I hope to put Kindle and print-on-demand versions of RF and Job Culture (2nd ed — still in the future) on Amazon.
ConnieM — email sent.
Both please. Thank you so much and glad your roof is back together now it is raining like crazy.
Copy of Rebelfire still available? To go with all of the rest of your books that I picked up in the way back when. How much(+shipping to 33704 zip) and where to send the money?
thanks.
emdfl — I haven’t gotten that far yet, but glad you asked. I was planning to put RF on eBay eventually. Right now I don’t even know what I should charge per book. But let me get on that. SOON. Thanks for the push.
Would love a copy of RebelFire, but don’t want to take advantage, particularly since you are planning to put it on Amazon. I understand your need to take a sabbatical, will miss your daily insights and valuable links. Please enjoy the down time!
mcridge — email sent. I’m happy to mail you a book. It’s a small thing in exchange for a roof!
BUT … I am NOT quitting the blog or even taking a break from it! I won’t be blogging as much news, but will be blogging about my thoughts and experiences.
As you concentrate on less news _per se_, I hope this doesn’t eliminate the “Friday Freedom Question” or other thought-provoking comments along that line.
I would love a signed RebelFire. Hope my Amazon purchases cover at least part of the postage. The book will be very much appreciated. The contribution was sent from my PayPal gmail address – not the one I use here.
Mari — email sent. And don’t worry about postage. I’m glad to know you use my Amazon links, though. That always helps.
I cant pass up rebelfire
Hi Claire,
Thanks for the generous offer.
JP — email sent. But again I have to say that all the real generosity was aimed in my direction.
