The Sea Gull
Answers to Questions Before Ordering
January 9, 2012 - Happy New Year! And thanks for the new orders coming in this year! As always, PLEASE, watch for an email from us, as I NEED to confirm your mailing address and make sure your email is working. If you have ordered, and have NOT responded back confirming your mailing address, I will HOLD the book until you DO. So PLEASE, watch your emails. I am not Amazon and just send things. We had some people not update their mail addresses on the Paypal, so I like to check things before I send. This protects you and us, in making sure you get your book. Thanks, again, for all the 2012 orders!
December 11, 2011 - Thanks very much for all the orders we had in the last three months. I have very busy working on Edna's family bio, so behind on updating here. We have shipped books to USA, Canada and a few different European locations since Sept. So if you currently have a book on order, watch your emails. Note: If you live near Fremont, California, and looking for a book, check out the Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum shop for a copy. Meanwhile, some of the shipping could go up in the coming months. Just holding off as long as I can.
August 21, 2011 - Thanks for another good month of books sold, including more in the US and to Australia! (Last month included books in the US, Sweden and Spain.) Also special thanks to Shana Dennis for her donation of 'The Sea Gull' to the Newcastle Library in Newcastle, Australia. If you live in Australia, Shana is having a give-a-way for a signed copy of the book as part the November Newcastle Silent Film Screenings, by the Australia Silent Film Festival. More details here.
Note - Due to increase cost in shipping and packaging materials, as well as banks fees, etc., the price of The Sea Gull book will be going up sometime this year. So if you want a book at the current price, you should order NOW! Thanks for all the recent orders. Greatly appreciated!
Also, please make sure your email addresses are working. I did just sort out an order, and have it on its way, after having to mail a card to the buyer, because the email address didn't work to confirm the mailing address. They didn't know their email wasn't working, but the address was correct. I do need to confirm mailing address, before mailing. So watch for an email directly from me, after ordering. Thanks! If you have a current order, check your email for follow up information.
November 9, 2010 - Thank you for the new orders the last couple of days! Please check your emails for the latest information on your order! Still some books left, if you like to get an early Christmas present on order. And if you live near Niles in Fremont, Ca. check the Niles Silent Film Museum, as they have a few books left in stock.
November 6, 2010 - I got back from the Chaplin International Conference this week. I took some books with me, and without even trying, sold everyone I had with me in my bag! Basically, there was no mention, officially, except where I placed a couple of mentions on EP sites. Fans came up to me, wanting the book. I even had a fan carrying their 2008 edition, and wanting it signed! So, all and all, a great event for Leading Ladies. The interview we showed, 'Angel from Nevada' was highly enjoyed, as well, as I as surrounded by people liking the film, over the three days I was there. My current stock is getting a bit low, but still plenty, if you like to get one. Makes a great Christmas present, for that special Edna fan!
In San Francisco area? See the Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum gift shop in Fremont, California for a copy of The Sea Gull. Currently, they have all signed books in stock.
