If I haven't yet regaled you with fan-girl-swooning over Patrick Rothfuss, let me tell you why he's awesome:
1) He wrote
some pretty awesome books. If you haven't read them, please check them out. I'll even mail you a copy. They're that awesome.
2) He's a
pretty cool guy overall. There's a link to his blog, if you don't believe me. Not only does he write awesome blog posts but:
3) He will sign your books for you. This was a wonderful experience for me. It's so special having your own well-loved copies signed by the person that wrote them, especially since my ability to get out to a real signing is so limited.
So if reasons 1-3 weren't enough for you to love him forever, check out
World Builders. It's a charity that aims to help families by providing them with the ability to produce food and income on their own.
I'm still a Compassion advocate to the bone, but if your pockets aren't empty yet do consider reading up on this charity and donating to the cause.
That's enough swooning for today. Did I mention he has a beard?
