Title: Paranormal VBB update from Nan1970
Description: all participants, please read
CheriePie - December 31, 2007 07:10 PM (GMT)
I previously mentioned that I would be contacting Nan to get a status on the books she still owes from the Paranormal VBB, as well as books she should've received by now that were never journaled. Well, I wanted to get that update back to everyone involved and I'm sure she won't mind if I post her reply verbatim since that'll be the easiest way to make sure I don't forget anything, and also to let everyone know her medical status in her own words.
Can anyone that she still owes a book to, Three, NMZ, kislany, and Lexie, please confirm that they still want the book they're owed. If it's not longer needed, I'll get that info back to Nan. Thanks!!
I'll go make the relevant updates to the Out of Play thread after I post this....

<DIV>Hi, Cherie!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Things are crazy here. I've been in the hospital off and on (as-yet undiagnosed digestive issues, but on the bright side, I've lost 50 pounds) over the last few months and was laid off from my job as a result. Never a dull moment... </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I apologize for dropping the ball on these books. I'll get them sent out ASAP. Here's an update. As soon as my life gets under control, and everyone gets the books that I owe them, I'd like to start participating again. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I hope that everything is going well for you! Are you in Cali yet?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>-Nan</DIV>

Sorry to hear about Nan's health. I hope that she can get a diagnosis soon.
She does not currently owe me any books but I did have a lot of problems earlier on. She owed me several books and supposedly mailed them to me several times, but they never arrived.
Eventually they did all make it when she had them sent directly from sellers.
So there does seem to be a history of books that she has mailed not arriving. I think she said something about a problem with mailing the books through work, or something. Thought it was worth a mention.
CheriePie - December 31, 2007 07:45 PM (GMT)
Yup, that was definitely a problem with her in the past Wendy. Matter of fact, when I was chatting with her on IM I brought that up again. This batch of books that was again sent on 5/25 was sent from her work (while she was still working there), but they had already fired the guy who was caught stealing from the shipping department before. So there's definitely something wrong there with the people at that place she used to work. She's probably better off outta there if that's the case!

cherie tell Nan not to worry about me--I have Touch the Dark now so there's no need to send it to me :)
kislany - January 4, 2008 10:40 PM (GMT)
Thanks Cherie for the note :wub:
Naw it's ok, I will write it off, as I have plenty of books anyway and if I really want it, I can always get it through Bookmooch...
Off to sleep...

uh, i honestly don't know - I am currently going through my stock and will see if it is here or not.
CheriePie - January 7, 2008 04:49 AM (GMT)
Just so that I can have the info in this thread too, I wanted to note that as per our new
Pay It Forward plan, Amberkatze is sending Narcissus in Chains to Kislany.
Thank you Amber!! :kiss: :kiss:

No problem!!! I am happy to help!

Just wanted to let you know I am putting the book in the post tomorrow.

Thank you Amber! :kiss: I haven't done yet, but I need to compile all this new info for Nan, though I think we're still short a few addresses she wanted, and then I'll get all the info back to her....

Three, any news on
Kitty and the Midnight Hour yet?
Since it appears that all the other things she sent out that day went missing, I would bet that you never got that either. I'm thinking that rather than have Nan buy a new copy, perhaps I should add that to the
Pay It Forward thread.
CheriePie - January 23, 2008 03:31 AM (GMT)
Nan, I owe you The Purple Emperor by Herbie Brennan from the NEW MILLENIUM FANTASY AND SCI-FI SWAP on BookSwapLive on 3/23/07. Do you want to call it even and you don't have to send out the one you owe me either?
