That is beautiful king family fan - I did not know you were so talented!Heres the card I made. The cover and then the inside.
Oh yeah sure - but I bet you are a "Sharp Dressed Man"!LOL, I'm so dense DJ. I kept thinking after my post, why is she asking me to write to them?...lol I was NEVER accused of being the sharpest tool in the shed.
Did you get your note sent out?Thank-you I will get on it today.
I did but have not heard anything back.Did you get your note sent out?
Don't give up hope. Sometimes it just takes a long time.I did but have not heard anything back.
Anything yet?I did but have not heard anything back.
Nothing yet. But will see.Anything yet?
I got a promotional card from Lisa See's mom today. This is the fifth bit of correspondence I have gotten from Carolyn see.
I also had one of my cards returned to me today~ Dick Cavett. He isn't dead, is he? I will try a different address for him.
That is very heart warming Lin!OMG I am so happy. I will start reading Mr. Mercedes today. My doorbell rang and what a surprise. For two of us. LOL my dog was in the living room and does not know the fed-ex guy. So scared him a bit. Drop the book and gone before I could open the door.Anyway pleasant surprise ,a great book from the heart of a wonderful member here,you know who you are. And the most beautiful hand written note I will Treasure So totally unexpected and wanted to share with you.
Yer welcome!Thanks, I thought it was too, but I've been harassing people too much, didn't want to get too pushy.
Not giving up. Got my hands on two more addresses. A home address and a fan mail address. So I will be writing a couple more notes.Don't give up hope. Sometimes it just takes a long time.
Did you write your seventh grade teacher?I am going to start with a seventh grade teacher who changed my life. I lost touch with her after I graduated from college. Anyway long story short I had my children by the time I lost touch.
How do you get addresses,I would love to write Carrie Underwood.
You must. We need to let people know when they have made a difference in our lives. It's imperative! I would love to get an out-of-the-blue note telling me how I helped or made a difference to someone. I think that would be the highest honor I could get. Do it Holly, let them know.I need to do this to some people in my life - it keeps nagging at me to write my old bosses - 2 of them - they were partners in a firm together. They saved me from a wreck of a job. They were so kind and taught me so many things. I remember my interview with them - I had to make early in the morning so I could get to my job, at the time, on time - but that interview changed my life. My job at the time had ruined me - my hair was falling out, I was way overweight, my fashion was horrible. But those two saw beyond all that, took me on for my knowledge of the architectural industry, took a chance on me and that moment with them changed my entire life. I bet they'd like to know that. I left the job 7 years into it to stay home with a baby, and then had another. Anyhow, I should write them. I think I'd feel better if I did.
And I did.CArolyn See is the mother of Lisa See, if any of you read Lisa's books (very good). Anyway, every time Lisa has a book coming out, Carolyn has sent me a press card. She's got one coming out soon, so I'm waiting to see if I get a new one.
