2 Dec 2005 Mystery Package: The plot thickens
So you know in my entry
I received a book through the post, and I still don't know who gave it to me. But I'm reading it now and I'm a little surprized on how good it is. There hardly any description about the football matches themselves, it's all character building. And it mentions the Great Cthulhu, which was a nice surprize.
But the thing that caught me off guard was one of the extra characters in the book. I'm about halfway through it and, without revealing anything about the plot, one of the characters
has my name! Even the surname was exactly the same! I had to re-read the chapter again to make sure I wasn't seeing things, but it was there in black and white. I'm in the book.
Now is this an amazing coincidence? Or is it more than that? Did the mystery person who sent me the book KNEW about the character with my name, and they just HAD to send the book to me? Is this a sign of some sort....? We may never know.
I'll write a review about Knees Up Mother Earth when I finish reading it.

That is very strange, especially since you don't know who sent it to you. Possibly the author sent it to you? Maybe the author's name is a pseudonym and he's really a friend from when you were little but moved to Wales and he wrote you into the book...or maybe someone sent it to you because your name is in the book, and forgot to put their not to you in the package, and are now really angry because they sent you the lovely book and you have yet to respond. How you're not going crazy is beyond me.
