A Super Nice Email

I love receiving emails from readers of my books. I got one a couple of days ago from Cherie who lives in Yakima, Washington. It was so nice and heartfelt that I asked her if she would mind sharing it on my blog. She said no problem! Here it is.
"Good Morning Lynn,
I was so excited about reading your book "The 100 best things I've sold on eBay" I just had to share how it just touched my heart to hear your stories, laugh and almost cry at so many things. Thank you for sharing so much about your life, family and adorable children. Yesterday, when I started reading your book, I carried it everywhere with me, took it to my in-laws, would read a sentence waiting for a red light, didn’t even get the dinner dishes done (which isn’t like me at all!) I just couldn’t put it down! I was addicted! My brother even called last night from Palm Desert and my husband told him “she may be too busy to talk, she is reading a book she can’t put down”.
I had to get some sleep by midnight and my 2 ½ yr old daughter decided to wake up at 3AM this morning, so at 4:30AM we got up, sat on the recliner together and was once again hooked on your book until it was finished at 7AM.
Your stories have inspired me, as I’m a stay at home mom who has been wanting to do eBay since I saw you on Evening Magazine like I mentioned yesterday. My family is to the point of, yep, uh huh, yada, yada, yada! Talk about encouragement! I’ll show them differently!
I emailed by brother and his wife in Palm Desert and shared some of your treasures you found. Every time we go to Bellingham, Goodwill is always on our list to go to. Here in Yakima Goodwill is just a few blocks away.
I’m saddened and sorry, after all those years living in Bellingham area (even on Tulip St, behind Lynn St for 1 ½ years at age 19) I never made it to your Grandmothers shop. It seams like I never had the money and always had an excuse why I couldn’t shop anywhere. I see I really missed a piece of history and reading your book is my way of also supporting your love and caring relationship you had with your Grandmother with her business.
Thanks again for your inspiration! Hope to see you at Village Books!
