Status message:
Please do not request books from me unless you are able and willing to wait for several weeks. The cost of shipping books has gone up and I am on a budget. I regret that I have had to stop shipping books overseas as a result. I generally ship within 2-3 weeks. If there will be longer period I will let you know. If you have a desperate need to receive a book immediately, I recommend Amazon. They can ship within one to two days in most cases. You will pay for the privilege.

Which makes my next point:

Might I remind everyone, you are being gifted with a book (often out of print and unavailable anywhere else) at the full expense to a total stranger. Be patient, be gracious, be polite and most off all, show appropriate gratitude for that which you are receiving. I'm not your mother, but I assume most of you have a mother who would agree with me. Use your manners. Really.

Finally...I am a Christian...sometimes when I "gift" books to "moochers" I will include a FREE DVD or tract of the Gospel of Christ. If this will bother or offend you in some way, I am sorry for you...however, I must request that if that is the case, do not mooch from me.

It is wrong for a moocher to receive a book that is as represented but then file negative feedback because of the free gift they received in addition.

If you cannot abide by bookmooches rule's and not abuse your fellow moocher and do not feel you can abide by my requirements, I wish you luck in finding the book you desire elsewhere, but please do not mooch from me. We will both be happier for it.

Bio:
I believe the ability to read and read well is the greatest gift we can give to one another.

"They have to make do, Storybooks aren't bread. You can live without them."
"I couldn't live without them." Naftali said.

~Isaac Bashevis Singer, "Naftali the Storyteller and His Horse,Sus."

Mother of two, plus two by marriage,and grandmother to a precious and precocious toddler. Artist, writer, Mrs. Arkansas 2007 Southern America. A former "wedding planner" turned emergency manager, (not a lot of difference between tornadoes and mother's of brides) and a forever student, this part time teacher is SLOWLY working towards a Masters. Married to a man with a fetish for wearing White Hats. He's been in law enforcement, still in the fire services and is a minister-making this red-headed Irish girl one of the more unusual preacher's wives in existence. ;-)
