Gift from Kosteniuk

By GilaChess - December 18, 2005

I received an email from GM Alexandra Kosteniuk a few weeks ago asking for my mailing address. I was apprehensive at that time because I thought why would someone like that want to send me anything. Anyway I gave my address and this is what I received in my mail a few days ago. Opening the package I found... It was a souvenir gift packed with a teddy bear, fridge magnets, puzzle cards, stickers and a signed autograph from Kosteniuk herself. Thanks, Kosteniuk for the early Christmas gift !! For those who don't know, Kosteniuk website is here and she has just started her own Chess Is Cool podcast here
