Hello everyone.

I come asking a small favor from anyone who can help. Over the last few years I have been dragging my son Jack to book signings. He has learned that getting a book signed is special. (When we went to Ray Bradbury's signing last year he tried to get a Spongebob Squarepants book signed.) So now we have a new signing for F. Paul Wilson I have realized that what I need to do is get a copy of The Christmas Thingy for him to get signed but have been running into a problem. The only copies I have been finding as of late are already signed! So if anyone could be so kind as to point me in the right direction for finding a plain ordinary paperback copy of The Christmas Thingy I would be eternally grateful

Thanks.
Icarus

P.S. I swear I did not name my son after Repairman Jack!! Honestly!!

If you can't find an unsigned one, give a signed copy to your son to have it personalized. Yeah, yeah. Having a book personalized lowers the value but this isn't something you'd want to turn around and sell, right?

True enough - i think this is just the cheap bastard in me coming out - funny thing tho - right now the cheapest copy I can find on the internet is already sitting at Dark Delicacies

Though it may take away from having it signed in front of your son, FPW usually sells The Christmas Thingy in early November/December through a bookstore in NJ. They get a few orders and FPW visits the store and signs them all (and personalizes them). I ordered a copy this past year for myself and a 2nd copy for my nephews.

I read THE CHRISTMAS THINGY every year at, well, Christmas.

Guess Ah'm just an old softy, but it never fails to make me tear up.
