Your Harry Potter Order Is on Schedule

This is a welcome e-mail:

Hello from Amazon.com.

We’re happy to let you know that we’ve begun preparing your order for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince for delivery.

You should have the book(s) in your hands no later than 7:00 p.m. in your time zone on Saturday, July 16. Most books will be delivered by U.S. Mail, either with your regular mail delivery or in a separate, special mail delivery. Some orders may be delivered by UPS.

Because our carriers are delivering hundreds of thousands of books on that day, we do ask that you wait until 7:00 p.m. before contacting customer service if you haven’t received your order.

Although we’re not requiring a signature, we still recommend that someone be home to accept the package, as the driver may not leave it on your doorstep if they don’t feel it’s safe to do so.

You’ll receive our usual shipment confirmation e-mail after your package leaves our fulfillment center.

Thanks for shopping at Amazon.com, and happy reading!

Normally, I’d be spending the weekend on this, but it’s a busy, busy one for me.

Friday night and Saturday day, I’m manning the Daily Press/Hesperia Star booth at the Hesperia Community Expo run by the Hesperia Chamber of Commerce in cooperation with the city and school district.

And all weekend long, I’ll be editing and posting stories from Comic-Con International in San Diego by correspondents for Comic Book Resources.

But, with Dumbledore as my witness, I will still make a dent in that book.
