Hi, Maybe what Steve needs is a patron. >From AOL Dictionary by Merriam-Webster Patron (noun) "Etymology: Middle English, from Middle French, from Medieval Latin & Latin; Medieval Latin patronus patron saint, patron of a benefice, pattern, from Latin, defender, from patr-, pater Date: 14th century 1 a : a person chosen, named, or honored as a special guardian, protector, or supporter b : a wealthy or influential supporter of an artist or writer 2 : one that uses wealth or influence to help an individual, an institution, or a cause " For example: Sir Paarfi of Roundwood various patrons: The Phoenix Guards "Presented, as Always, With Humble Respects To Lady Parachai of Redstaff In Hopes that it will Meet with her Approval" Five Hundred Years After "Presented, as Always To the Countess of Garnier With Gratitude and Hope" The Paths of the Dead, The Lord of Castle Black, and Sethra Lavode "Presented, as Always, To Marchioness Poorborn With Gratitude and Affection" It might be a little hard to revive something from the 14th Century. I still like the T-shirt idea, even though, I probably will not have any Lavodewear by the time Sethra Lavode is published in paperback. Hmmm, Patron (noun) "3 : one who buys the goods or uses the services offered especially by an establishment" Heh, doesn't that make me a patron because I buy books? And they make great gifts too. Bye. Linda G.
