I deserve a bookmark because I'm a Nightrunner/Tamir/Lynn Flewelling pusher. I have personally infected several individuals with a desire to read your books, some of whom never read fantasy before I dangled Luck in the Shadows under their noses with comments like, "Since you love to read authors who *get* how people work from the inside out, I know you'll *love* these." Or, "You like tense mysteries and with action that don't scrimp on characterization? Hoo-boy!"

Though, to be honest, I would most likely have it laminated and preserved for posterity rather than simply using the bookmark for its stated purpose, because the family and I are rough on bookmarks.

I desperately want to be the first lucky girl in my country (Germany) to get such a bookmark. Here we only have the first three nightrunner books in an awful translation, so I bought the whole series in English, of course. I'd like to show that bookmark to my female friends and say, "Go read that series! It has lots of pretty men like him!" ^^

I'd love to get a bookmark! I love books in general, I'm pretty much surrounded by books all day as I work in a library. Your Nightrunner series is one of my favorites and I've always suggested them when my branch goes shopping for new books. I have all 4 so far and they're all stacked nicely beside my bed. It would be so cool to have a matching bookmark for when White Road is added to the collection.

I gave you good dog advice, so you owe me one?

Well, like everyone else, I love your books. I also happen to be a collector of bookmarks.

The reason I really want one is that it will add a great ending to the story of how I found your books. Many years ago, a friend of mine and I were at lunch and she started talking about this amazing series of books she was reading. She described them so vividly and they sounded so awesome that I went down to the library later that to find them. Of course, when I got there I couldn't remember the name of any the books, the author, or that name of the series. I searched the database using the only thing I remembered, that there was a character named Alec. I found and read the entire Nightrunner series by searching one character name.

Being able to tell people "...and many years later I got a signed bookmark!" makes me giddy!
