So then, boys and girls...
I got an ARC of Rant last week from Chuck himself (signed - yay!) in my parcel of wonder from the october fanmail window. I read it this weekend and I'm grinning.
I don't want to say much about it because a) I'm not very good with words and Glasses I aint gonna spoil it! I will tell you that I'm dead chuffed and that it's given me something to ponder on and smile about for a while.

wow
Did you have a question about Rant in your letter or something? I can't see him being able to start sending out Rant ARCs to just everyone

I was just as surprised to find it in my parcel! I don't think I even knew about Rant when I wrote my letter so I'm not sure why I got a copy - I assumed he'd sent it to more people aswell as myself but hey, I feel quite special Smile

Yeah I definitely liked it. The 'oral biography' format is great, and as with all Chuck's work there are a million and one ideas going on in there which is just astounding.

Alex,

You should feel special!!! I don't think anyone else has gotten one or will get one. During the last mailing window, Chuck sent me an ARC of Haunted, and said that the publisher only sent him two. One he had given to a friend, and the other he sent to me. He said he'd rather them go to people who want them. I felt very very special, and you should too!!!

Regards,

Paul the Whip Guy

Hi Paul - I sure do feel special and very touched! Chuck is just the best. I bet you were stoked when you got an ARC of Haunted!

Monkeywright - hehe, you have put a smile on my face once again Smile
