A few more weeks, and I will finally be able to get my books out of boxes and back onto shelves, where they belong.  This process has made me acutely aware of just how many books I have (a lot), and especially how many copies of my OWN books I have (more than I need).  <\/p>\n<p>We got a nice response to the TUF VOYAGING sale in January and the WINDHAVEN sale in February, so I figured I&#8217;d follow up with another sale for March, maybe clear off my shelves a little more.  This month I thought I&#8217;d do something for my readers and collectors from outside the United States.  So I&#8217;m going to put ALL my foreign editions on sale.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/pics.livejournal.com\/grrm\/pic\/0002yxcz\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/georgerrmartin.com\/notablog\/wp-content\/uploads\/import\/s320x240275\" width=\"172\" height=\"240\" border='0'\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Over the years I&#8217;ve accumulated quite a few extra copies of many of my foreign editions, on just about all my books.  A few of them are pictured here in this blog post.  You can see many more on the Signed Books page of my website, where I&#8217;ve offered some for sale.  Check out those listings at:<\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/www.georgerrmartin.com\/books-foreign.html<\/p>\n<p>If you see anything you&#8217;d like to add to your collection, now is the time to get it.  For the rest of March, I am reducing all the prices listed on that page by $5.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/pics.livejournal.com\/grrm\/pic\/0002zfy3\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/georgerrmartin.com\/notablog\/wp-content\/uploads\/import\/s320x240276\" width=\"150\" height=\"240\" border='0'\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The prices listed (minus five bucks) would include Book Rate \/ Media Mail shipping within the United States.  For overseas or international shipping, there would be an additional charge.  Inquire at georr@aol.com and let us know which book you&#8217;re interested in and where you want it shipped, and we&#8217;ll calculate the shipping charges for you.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/pics.livejournal.com\/grrm\/pic\/000309ex\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/georgerrmartin.com\/notablog\/wp-content\/uploads\/import\/s320x240277\" width=\"152\" height=\"240\" border='0'\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>French editions, Spanish editions, Italian, Swedish, Finnish, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, German, Czech, and many more&#8230; You&#8217;ll see most of these listed on the page I linked to above, but if you&#8217;re after a title or edition that you DON&#8217;T see, inquire.  In cases where I only had a few extra copies I never bothered to list the book on Signed Books, but I still might have a copy I&#8217;d be willing to let go to a good home.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/pics.livejournal.com\/grrm\/pic\/000317xe\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/georgerrmartin.com\/notablog\/wp-content\/uploads\/import\/s320x240278\" width=\"159\" height=\"240\" border='0'\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>And yes, I do take PayPal.
