god what a waste of time ..

i made about 160$ starting at 6:30 (setting up) till packing up around 2:00pm

most people drove up, saw that they were books, curled their lips in disgust, and tore on past.

'thems nuthin but books !!! I's hate books ! thems put funny ideers in yer hed. Should all be burnt !!"

the people who are readers went out of their minds - as i charged only 25 cents for paperbacks and 50 cents for hard covers (if anyone bought more than 1 book i threw in lots of freebies)

still .. i had to see what would happen.

on the up side i found a used book store that are going to take everything i have for credit so i'll probably get about $400.00 credit .. the guy has some rare/collectables I'm going to spend it all on.

biggest bonus .. i get my house back .. now i can buld my library.


for people who expressed interest : i kept back all the horror so when i get a chance i'll list it in here as previously requested.

That would be a great idea, Urge. Even though I've lost a lot of interest in horror fiction in the past few months, I'd love to see what you have.

If I lived anywhere near Toronto, you know I would have been there! I'll be keeping an eye out for your list.
