I ordered my book from 8-ball before I left for Germany. In the dedication textbox, I put something like "please make a dedication as you see fit..."

Apparently, when the web form was submitted, the text in the dedication box was put down as just a '?' (question mark). To my horror, I get a voicemail while in Dusseldorf from Naomi, and she said my dedication was just a question mark, and to confirm if that is what I really wanted. Unless I called back, Sven would be autographing the book that evening, and he would put down just a '?' as my dedication.

Because I was already 9 hours ahead, it was far too late to call her. When I returned home, my book was waiting. And to my great joy, Sven wrote a very nice dedication, rather than a '?'.

Thanks so much Sven. A great book by all accounts.... and thanks for not writing a question mark for the dedication!!!
