this is dedicated to the one I love...

[Laurence Horn]

Is this a new practice, or just one of which I had been blissfully
unaware?  In either case, I'm sure we'd all like to jump in on the
bidding, rich and vain (but tasteful) as we all are...

A Book Dedicated to You

Later this year, the second editions of <>The Dimwit's Dictionary
and <>The Dictionary of Concise Writing , both by Robert Hartwell
Fiske, will be published.

Since The Vocabula Review struggles endlessly to make ends meet, we
thought we would offer book dedications to the highest bidders.

If you would like one of these two books dedicated to you, or to
someone you know, please make your bid.

You'll write the dedication, and we'll publish it (so long as it's in
good taste, of course).

Bidding starts at $250.00.

Bid here: <mailto:info at vocabula.com?subject=Here is my bid for a
dedication>info at vocabula.com.

*We will make it clear who has written the dedication (unless he or
she wishes to be anonymous).
