Quick comment: the end date for the auction is listed as being October 17; should it be November 17?

[carbonel]

No, it was supposed to be October 27. One week. Now fixed.

Am I missing something? I see links to everything EXCEPT to the auction itself. I want to bid.

[selenesue.livejournal.com]

Nevermind, I figured it out. Bid placed.

Just got the previous book and I do so hate delayed gratification! [grin]

You rock, Lois rocks, John Scalzi also rocks. This is such a great way of doing it.

Hey, you rock too.

I doubt I can afford this on my own. But it's a really good idea, and maybe I can rent access to a copy from a bidder.

Noted on my site:

My site gets 20,000+ visitors a day, so hopefully that'll help get the bids moving.

Thanks much! And thanks for being okay with my swiping a fair amount of your text, too.

I think insisting that bidders link their real addresses and names to their LJ accounts in a world-readable forum is not useful, and potential will discourage bidding. You might allow them to email you their correct information, instead, or provide some actual way of authenticating them without compromising their privacy.

Obviously I didn't make myself clear -- it was only anonymous (non-LJ) posters that I needed real names and e-mail for. Thanks, I'll clarify that.

You might want to post a pointer in [Unknown site tag]?

OK, that failed miserably. In the nemesis_draco community.
