Boxes of books. We have shelves of books. We are going to have to unload some books that are our books [we own them and have had them for years] but are not OUR books, if you get what I mean. This is the spillage of the kind of library a writer collects over 30 years. And we have a plan. We are going to sell the books, many of which are older, mixed hardbounds, paperbound sf and other stuff, in groups. By author. Or by type. We will declare a price for the group, and make a package that will ship efficiently (should you wonder what logic governs selection) in an if it fits it ships USPO box. These boxes are small enough we can carry them.<\/p>\n<p>We also have numbers of foreign language copies of my books&#8212;Japanese, Polish, Spanish, you name it. Want to brush up on your foreign language by reading a book you know? These would be just the ticket.<\/p>\n<p>There will also be bizarre eclec-ticity of our old research books. If you want us to sign somebody else&#8217;s book just as a curiosity &#8212; cool. WE&#8217;ll do that. All the books will be cheap-ish, except for a few real treasures. We don&#8217;t really care if it&#8217;s a collector&#8217;s item&#8212;just we need the shelf space!<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll be putting it up on Closed Circle for convenience, because that has a payment option. We&#8217;ll put a little item in the Closed Circle page that describes what&#8217;s the content of a particular box up for sale, but please don&#8217;t ask us to mix and match.
