Braling II:

Maybe I should cause a real uproar (against these silentand nearly forgotten halls)...and print out the first page, first chapter of Ray's 'Farewell Summer'?

(Let's see...that would be personal banishment forever from these hallowed halls.
Or would it...?)

If anyone took exception to you printing out that material I would argue that it was read in public, as an advertisement to promote interest in the product. So if you repeated it, it would only help Ray. So, please! Please, please, please�

A snort of anticipation off in a corner somewhere.

Chapter 31

I Emailed Sam Weller, telling him my intentions and looking for his thoughts on this. If I don't hear from him, say, by Sunday evening, late, I'll likely put it on the web at THIS site.

Nard,
Of course we would love it!
My only reservation is that, depending on how long we'd have to wait for thr entire book; it may be like being really hungry, sitting down to a feast of one's favourite food, savouring the first bite, then having the meal whisked away!

Nard,
Thanks for the update. Good luck!

Braling II,
It will be hard to push myself away from the table but I�ve got to have a taste.

Looking forward to it.

I should have added this before. I understand your concerns about some having reservations about publishing this material early. If it can�t be done, I�ll certainly understand. It�s nice to know though that the book itself is so near. Perhaps that will have to do for now. �Thanks

Nard,

What has happened to Sam? I emailed him some time ago and he responded in regard to possibly coming to Florida for a book signing, then nothing in regard to a further email to him with a specific question. It seems like he is pulling a Richard Bach.

Sam's schedule is listed on: http://www.raybradburychronicles.com
Sam is a fellow who sometimes is difficult to locate by email... And I don't see a Florida appearance listed anywhere!

Thanks a million for posting that.

About �flower plates�. Audios can be deceiving. Perhaps the word you�re looking for is �petals�.
