books in proof, and books that arrive without prior inquiry will be neither
acknowledged nor returned.
2. PERSONAL MAIL:
Mail from Readers:
An interesting question from a reader or a kind fan letter
can cheer a whole day. I love hearing from my readers, and wish I could respond
to every letter. But I have no secretary or assistant, and a good deal of
business to handle. To my sorrow, I can no longer keep up with fan mail. You’re
very welcome to write to me, but
please don’t expect an answer. (If you are under ten years old I will try very hard to answer.)
If you send me a present, I will almost certainly be unable
to acknowledge it, which makes me feel bad.
Autographs:
For years, I’ve offered signed
bookplates to readers who want my signature in their copies of my books. I’ve
enjoyed doing this very much. But I can’t do it any more. The printer who made
the dragon bookplates for me has died. And I who signed them just can’t keep it
up forever. I’m sorry to disappoint you!
DO NOT send me books to be autographed. I can’t handle them.
I can’t return them. Don’t send them.
If you want an autograph:
- Be at a bookstore or event where I’m signing.
- (I am trying this out to see if I can do it – the offer
may be withdrawn if I can’t keep up.) If you live in the USA, send me a self-addressed stamped return envelope
and I will send you ONE autograph.
If you live in Canada or elsewhere, I can do this only if you can put US postage on the envelope.
Postage information from the webmistress
Self-addressed stamped envelope requires 1 oz. U.S. postage. A regular business sized envelope is sufficient.
Readers outside the USA may find the U.S. Postal Service’s International Rate Calculator to be of use. The site also includes information about buying U.S. postage on line.
You may write UKL a letter and send it by street mail. If you want permission to quote, copy, or reprint from her work, or have a question about appearances, interviews, etc., please send those requests to her literary agent.
