The writer is a book collector in Prince George, B.C.

Over the years, I have made it a point of collecting writers I enjoy
and having the books signed. Due to the cost of freight, this has
been done mostly by bookplates. Following John Dunning's advice, the
bookplates are generally laid in and letters or envelopes retained.

I have the following writers complete or almost so, signed as above.
Might you be interested in whole or part? Condition of most books is
very good to fine.

Writers collected include:

Nelson DeMille - early paperback originals singed in person, hardcover
titles since BABYLON signed by bookplate. Franklin edition of
GENERALS DAUGHTER. DVD and more.
C.J.Sansom - First UK and US to Sovereign, Canaidan first of
REVALATION
Giles Blunt - First UK, USA and Canadian to date
P.D.James - Many but not all, signed by bookplate laid in.
Ken Follett - First USA of all under Follet name. First paperback UK
of earlier (save BIG BLACK, only title missing). All signed by
bookplate with letter. First IK of PETERSBURG and TRIPLE
Jeffrey Archer - First US of all titles, including children's books,
signed by bookplate.
Minette Walters - First of all titles, signed by bookplate
John Sandford - Complete to date, signed by bookplate.
Lewis Perdue - all titles signed by bookplate
William J. Coughlin - All US published titlesall titles, one signed
Scot Turow - all titles, signed by bookplate
Chris Bohjalian - all titles signed by bookplate, one or two signed
directly
Michael Gruber - all titles signed by bookplate
E. Richard Johnson - all titles signed directly, copies of paperback
reprints, many signed, duplicates as well.
Martin Cruz Smith - all titles signed by bookplate. Earlier paperback
originals unsigned (he refused!). Letter.
Peter Blauner - all titles signed by bookplate
Kathy Reichs - All titles signed by bookplate, some directly.
Nick Tousches - All titles signed by bookplate, some directly.
John Dunning - most titles, signed directly or by bookplate.
Colleen McCullough - all titles signed by bookplate.

This is only a partial listing. Other items to note include Gore
Vidal (two signed by bookplate with envelope) and many more.

I view this post as the start of a process. If these books are of
interest to you, please advise and we can go from there...

Regards,
Willow Arune
