My BookCrossing mail does not always come through and I've found out that PM's I've sent haven't arrived so if you need to reach me
please e-mail me at MyssCyn@aol.com
I send RABCKs when I can but money has been tight this year however ALL my books are available for postage.
I will be doing a major purge by Halloween so if you see something you want please let me know and I will probably reserve it for you and mail eventually.
Here is a link to a great thread about member made labels:

the answer to most of your questions right here
