Blighty, look in the FAQ forum...

Did Merlyn get a reply from PP about the letter sent????

I have a letter already written, it was written at midnight in UK, about how I felt when I finished TAS.
It took me 5 minutes but it was a very heartfelt letter, although I dont have the gus to send it in.

Nope, never got anything back from him.. I sent it through the publishers though, since I wasn't 100% sure about his home address (I think he had moved..).

how does phit Know is my question? and it is a shame that he didn't reply to us it would have been great to have it.
Is there anything more beautiful than a beautiful, beautiful flamingo, flying across in front of a beautiful sunset? And he's carrying a beautiful rose in his beak, and also he's carrying a very beautiful painting with his feet. And also, you're drunk.

I wish outer space guys would conquer the Earth and make people their pets, because I'd like to have one of those little beds with my name on it.

I wonder why everyone is staring at me like that?

i don't think you'd want to confirm a home address to a fan.

I hope he wasn't referring to us! Anyway he writes great books what does he expect!

It's been more than half a year.... I guess he's gotten way too much fan mail?

was it phit? it took him a year to answer back. plus pullman's been extra swamped with the recent interviews and stage/big read press.

He did, early on in TAS. That's why he needed Balthamos to pretend to be his daemon - so he wouldn't stand out.
