I can’t believe there is still more to come. I’ve just figured out that drooling in the office gets some strange looks from people.>>Note to self: Don’t drool on quotes.>>Podium!
I love that so many people are giving to the fundraiser both in cash and in kind. On the other hand, I miss your regular blog posts.>>Hope all is well and happy in Pat-land.
How many prizes does that make this so far? I’m too lazy to count.
Yoni , I am also to lazy to count all of them but on the first page of the blog alone I count 42 prizes ranging from really cool to OMFG Awesome. Pat what you have started here is truly amazing but I think I remeber you mentioning that this could become an annual thing how could you possibly exceed this?
Sorry if someones already asked but do you still plan on matching the donations?
Depending on how you count prizes, there’s about fifty non-Pat prizes. And they’re all pretty amazing…
You still looking for a good name Pat?
I am still matching prizes, and I am still looking for a cool name for the contest.
hm…. names, names, good names…. >Its kind of odd, but…>Sympathy of the Edema Ruh
Just donated $60 to the “Patrick Rothfuss Pig-Chick-Goatfuss Pledge Drive.”>>Quite amazing how many book donations you’ve received. And how much money you’ve raised. Good job!
Wanted to send a T-bone, but I hope they like bacon :)>>Be sure to save some cash to hire an assistant to sort out all the prizes. Else we’ll never see the next books!>>Actually, just had another thought about that that, going to send you a message through the contact us form.
