Peter Beagle Wants You -- Yes, You! -- To Buy The Last Unicorn Directly From Him
Peter S. Beagle has been embroiled in legal issues with the owners of The Last Unicorn movie for some time now -- due to those famous Hollywood accounting tricks, as far as I can tell -- and says that he's never made anything from the movie version of his most famous book.
That finally can change, with a new DVD release of The Last Unicorn. Conlan Press is offering the movie in a special arrangement with Beagle that will send more than half of the purchase price to support Beagle and his projects.
Buying this edition of the DVD from anyone else will not benefit Beagle, says Conlan Press; only buying it from them will send the money directly to the author of the original novel.

Does anyone know Mr. Beagles's e-mail address? A Fine And Private Place revolutionized my outlook on life when first I read it 35 years ago (I've reread it every year since), and I want to thank him. I am jimthecelt@yahoo.com

James: The preferred way to send a letter to an author is always through his publisher. In Beagle's case, your best bet would be to go through Conlan Press.
