I hope you will be present at the Banquet, but even if you can’t make it (and I know some of you live too far away to come), I can get a book signed for you and mail it to you afterwards. So … please let me know if you want me to include you … and how many copies … in my order to the publisher.
And please, forward this email to anybody I left out whom you know will be interested in coming to the Banquet or ordering a signed copy of the book.
