I would like to point out Mr. Rothfuss that you COULD break your nose and tell everyone that someone was SO excited with your book they socked you.

I have long been trying to think of something cool to send you, too, but I don’t think I can beat those nunchucks. Those are awesome!Hope you had fun in Vancouver. I lived there for a year and I miss it. Mountains and ocean. Beautiful.

I’m glad to be back, Cap’n. The whole Navy thing really gets in the way of my Pat-Posting.47 more days ’til I’m a civilian…

Pat,It’s nice to know we’re as awesome as we think we are…… well, I know I’m that awesome, and The Captain probably knows he is as well. You, of course, should knw how awesome you are as well.

@Captain Joe: I’m not sure Homeland Security would allow Pat to own a gunblade, anyway. With his beard already a registered weapon, he puts people in mortal danger just by turning around too quickly.

I wanted to say thank you.I read your book about a month ago. It took me a couple of weeks to read through it. When I turned the last page, I felt physically and emotionally satisfied, as if I had finished an extraordinary meal. I put the book down on the coffee table, thought for a moment, then picked it back up and started reading reading from chapter one. I've never done that before.Your book has inspired me to start writing again. I'm not sure why. I'll never be published, and don't really care, as writing is just a hobby to me.So anyway... thanks! I look forward to your next novel. Take your time.

Fanmail is definitely one of those forms of communication that should be well-thought-out, utilize thrift in words, and definitely avoid saying things like, "Your book was good but I thought it fizzled out at the end."Yes, my major confession is that I broke all of the above rules, and my only mitigating factor is that I think I was really expressing disappointment that the book ended at all...I know, I know, infinitely progressive stories aren't really in vogue right now, but, hey, here's wishing...The only other thing I can say is that I believe I'm the first person to accuse Mr. Rothfuss of secretly being Jack Black...an allegation that has yet to be denied.rip
