Wanna know more? Ask me.

[Sientje]

Oh wow, how nice that you've met her! She came to the Netherlands last summer but she didn't do any signings, so I didn't meet her .

You really have an impressive book collection
Just one question, what's the difference between the two German books? Is the cover different?

[rebekka]

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you that you'll meet her too one day. She's absolutely lovely! (If you wanna read more about my meetings... they are on my site about the Byrnes).

Yes, the book cover of P.S. I Love You is different. When I went to my first signing hour you got that book for free as you had to win tickets for it (what I did, luckily).
And the 2 German books of "Where rainbows end" are identical. I got them as gift from Cecelia's German publishing house because they know about my website and wanted to surprise me and my friend (we both own the site together) with that. Lovely, huh? The same goes for the P.S. I Love You watch!

[lixy]

That's really nice of them! Love your pictures btw ;D

[rebekka]

Jep, it was so cool.
Thx hun ;D

Aww, that's so nice of her publicist! You're very lucky

[Amanda]

Wow, do you have a piccie of that watch?
That's indeed really nice of the publicists.

[rebekka]

A picture of the watch? Not on my PC. Will make one, though and post it for you ;-)

[Sientje]

Rebekka, could post all your websites/fanlistings here?
I think you have a real bunch of them, don't you?

[rebekka]

I already posted them all. Take a look at my first entry in this topic

[Sientje]

oh, whaha missed that

[rebekka]

*lol*

[Amanda]

Where exactly in Germany do you live?

[rebekka]

I'm living deep in the South.
Do you know the Lake Of Constance? (That lake belongs to Switzerland, Austria and Germany). I live about 80 km in the North of it.
Why are ya asking?

[Amanda]

Because Sientje suggested to go see PS, I Love You together near the Dutch/German borders,
but that's pretty far for you, isn't it?

[rebekka]

Yes, it actually is
But we could all travel to Ireland or London to attend the premiere

[Amanda]

Great idea! ;D I'm up for it!

[rebekka]

You are?? Cool!
I'm really planning that. If I know the date soon enough maybe I'll do it!

[Sientje]

That would be reaaaally cool!

[rebekka]

It would be.

Hey, a friend of my friend went to another Cecelia signing today and as - somehow, don't ask me how this is possible - there weren't many people that girl had the chance to talk to Cecelia for a quite a while.
And guess what? Cecelia told her to tell me she said hi to me. I was like "Huh? I don't know that girl nor does that girl know me and my passion for Cecelia."
My friend will ask her friend tomorrow for more and then she'll hopefully tell me how this all came. Greetings from Cecelia, this is awesome!!!!
