Awesome. I hope those who've received them will share photos of them somehow :)

Haha. What an awesome photo. It’s really cool that you do this.

Chuck, I’d like to give you a present (sort of). I’m in a group on Facebook that ‘unearths’ crusty obscure images from early social media. You wouldn’t believe some of the things people find and bring to the group. But, you should do the following:

1. Type “Chuck Palahniuk” into the FB search bar.

2. Select the “Photos” results category.

3. At the top right of the search bar there will be a settings symbol that looks like lines and circles — select that.

4. Next, select Date Posted and pick a year (I suggest starting at 2008) and select Show Results.

5. Viola! All photos related to Chuck Palahniuk from 2008. Many of them are fan photos from your author events.

The best part about finding these old images isn’t just the image itself. Often there are entire stories attached in the caption. You can hear about the amazing time people had at your readings. There are some good ones. (By the way — these instructions are for phone, so it may be a bit different on a computer.)

PS — This can also be used to search for any term you want. “Brad pissed his pants again” or “Katie is wasted” or “quit my job” or any celebrity, topic, etc. I’ve actually used this to find random ideas for my writing if I’m in an inspirational Dead Zone.

Oooo, I'm excited. Like someone said below, will post a pick if I can figure out how. Also, off to investigate Matt Perky's comment. :)

Thank you for the massive bookmark and thoughtful wrapping! The elaborate bow from the top of the gift box now hangs next to my desk (and jingles a bit whenever my upstairs neighbors stomp around a little too much).

My Pixie Package landed today in the Northeast US. I love the bookmark and now know glitter balls are an actual thing. Thank you so much!
