We ...I agree, you were very good with the replies.<br /><br />We had an email conversation whilst I was in the Costco at Thurrock on a Saturday morning.<br /><br />My wife, whilst rolling her eyes, asked me why I was messing around with my phone and could I get back to picking up the bumper pack of chopped tomatoes.<br /><br />I told her that if Jeffery Deaver emailed her she would probably stop what she was doing and reply too.<br /><br />Thanks for selling the books to me, I'll let you know when I receive them.<br /><br />Andrew.Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01213897298556478125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29616976.post-61816655455944100432011-11-30T10:19:40.163+00:002011-11-30T10:19:40.163+00:00Stiff upper lip and all that.

Very friendly and helpful. Even more impressive considering you were probably dealing with dozens of other people at the same time.<br /><br />I've only been reading your work for a couple of years but I have been very impressed by the consistent high quality of it and I've enjoyed everything of yours I've read (maybe some more than others but I've always finished your books - and I'm the sort of reader who can dump a book at any excuse.)<br /><br />I haven't read everything yet but it's an aim of mine to get and read all your work.j purdiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07141166257366384474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29616976.post-30031403380855072542011-11-29T12:23:41.001+00:002011-11-29T12:23:41.001+00:00I promise never to say "you rock"I promise never to say "you rock"Thudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18320037763190473684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29616976.post-53732179321787457222011-11-29T07:34:16.102+00:002011-11-29T07:34:16.102+00:00There you go, Chris - it's the uptight English...There you go, Chris - it's the uptight Englishman in me. Then again, when I say it I mean it. I've seen plenty of other nationalities (and I don't mean you)who seem sincere in their protestations of their feelings, but whose feelings change on a daily basis.<br /><br />I haven't yet run out of anything on the list, Rob, though the Gridlinked and Skinner hardbacks are getting whittled down. And tell your brother to stop burrowing...<br /><br />Don't sweat it, Friso. If you're buying the books it certainly means you like them!<br /><br />Thanks John.

I have enjoyed your books so much that these days I simply buy them because you wrote them. You earned that!<br /><br />It will be a thrill to add personally inscribed editions of two of my favorite books (Skinner, Brass Man) to my Asher shelf.SharpMonkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17758967404809804811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29616976.post-63605021883998233982011-11-28T19:26:07.505+00:002011-11-28T19:26:07.505+00:00I feel bad about my businesslike e-mails now:)I feel bad about my businesslike e-mails now:)Frisohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02798831687037479293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29616976.post-30059589472788150492011-11-28T19:08:57.431+00:002011-11-28T19:08:57.431+00:00I need to say how great the whole process of buyin...I need to say how great the whole process of buying a book direct from you has been. You have answered all my emails within 10minutes and even replied when it was just to tell you about a spelling mistake. Thanks so much Neal. Can you post what you have left if any after a couple of weeks. Money permitting i will buy more.<br /><br />Thanks again<br /><br />RobArj209https://www.blogger.com/profile/07995851171405917019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29616976.post-85366638361575220722011-11-28T18:53:00.690+00:002011-11-28T18:53:00.690+00:00Don't say you are soppy because you are not, y...Don't say you are soppy because you are not, you just express your feelings (or is that too threatening for someone British? ;)<br />Ok, rant on!Chrishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14748747971477198309noreply@blogger.com
