How to get 8 1/2
It’s a good problem to have, but a problem nonetheless: bookstores quickly run out of copies of Twisted 8 1/2, and it takes a while to restock.
If you can’t find copies of Twisted 8 1/2 at your local National, please drop me a line in Comments.
If you need ten or more copies of Twisted 8 1/2 for Xmas presents (cheap at P100 a pop; it’s like merienda), post your name and mobile number in Comments (they won’t be published) and we’ll be in touch to arrange pickup or delivery. Signed copies, yes.
If the copies you reserved last week have still not arrived, alert me in Comments.
Thank you to everyone who’s bought Twisted 8 1/2. We’ll have book signings in January when the holiday madness has passed and the traffic has returned to its normal insanity.

Please note that we are no longer accepting reservations for Twisted 8 1/2 since the book is already in stores.
Reserved books are not signed because they come straight from the warehouse to the bookstore and do not pass near my hand.
We are now taking bulk orders of ten copies or more. These copies can be signed since they are coming from our stocks. Please post your full name and mobile number and someone will get back to you this afternoon (Friday). We regret we cannot accommodate orders of less than ten books. (The bookstores can handle one or three orders, but ten at once would empty their shelves.) Thank you.

Hi, Jessica – I am interested to get 10 copies. Can I have them signed as well? I am a big fan of yours and I wish to spread my interest to my friends through you book. Where can I pick it up and when?
Thank you!

Whoa, am I greedy enough that I got two copies out of the bookstore shelves? One, I reserved at Glorietta 1 branch, and the other one I got from Alimall Cubao.

Hi Jessica, I went to NBS SM Bicutan last Wednesday to confirm my reservation and pick up your new book. Sadly, the Customer Service told me they still don’t have their stocks.

Just wanted to let you know I was able to pick up my copies from NBS Shang today :D
Looking forward to the signing in 2010!

As much as I would like to buy this as soon as I can, I’ll have to wait for a signing so I could meet the one woman who was most influential in how I actually THINK (specifically my college years and well into my twenties). Long story, but thanks to you even my personal life has been the best.
