My Bid to Rule the Libraries
And now, my monthly (although it's been forgotten once) bid to rule the world take over libraries everywhere!
I've decided this year that I will continue donating hardcover copies of my first two books to libraries. So, if your local library does not have the books, send me an email at jpalmatier@sff.net with the address for the library and, if there is one, the name of the contact person for that library. If you aren't sure if your library accepts donations, or if you don't know if they have a contact person, a quick phone call to your library should provide the answer. So send in those addresses! I'll get the books mailed out ASAP.
I intend to do this all year, and hope to provide reminders at the end of each month. Unfortunately, I'll have to restrict the donations to US addresses only, due to the postage costs outside the US being rather high.
And speaking of hardcovers, if you'd like to buy the hardcovers but your local bookstore can't seem to get their hands on them, you can always get them from me. I have . . . a few copies sitting around. *ahem* Here are the prices:
Hardcover Copies:
The Skewed Throne: $15
The Cracked Throne: $15
The Vacant Throne): $20
I'd ask that if you'd like paperbacks that you get them from your local bookstore. That helps my sales record, and all bookstores should still be able to get their hands on all of the paperbacks with relative ease. However, if you've tried the local bookstore and just don't want to have them order them (or you'd REALLY like to have signed copies), I do have those available as well at $8 each. In addition, if you don't live near Binghamton, NY, but would like signed copies, you can contact my local Waldenbooks at (607) 798-7452 and arrange to have them signed for you and mailed to you.
All prices are for US addresses. I can give you a quote for the books for an address outside the US if you send me an email with the address you'd like them shipped to and then you can decide if it's worth it.
So, if you're interested in the hardcovers (or paperbacks), send me an email at jpalmatier@sff.net with what you'd like and we can figure out how to handle the payment. (I do have Paypal.) And of course, I'd be willing to sign the copies before mailing them out, personalized even, if you want.

We have a fair number of names in common on our FLs, which just makes me wonder via which you happened by the obscurest of the obscure corners of the Net, my blog.
I've heard of you, but haven't read anything of yours (in my copious free time). The Binghamton connection made me smile, though; my father grew up there and I visited my grandpa there many times.

Good to know you've heard of me. My name might be getting out there after all! *grin*
Binghamton is nice. I like it here.

You're fortunate to have a memorable last name. Not too many Palmatiers out there that I know of. I'd suggest the Free Library of Philadelphia (I live here-- Philadelphia, that is, not the FLP) to send books to, but they already have all three Throne ones. Perhaps the Swarthmore, Pa. library, which lacks them?
