April 6: Changes signing in Houston, TX

MURDER BY THE BOOK
2342 Bissonnet St
Houston, TX 77005

http://www.murderbooks.com/
Reading and signing.


Anne of Murder By the Book says:

"I just wanted to let you know that we are doing something special as part of the Changes signing at Murder By the Book in Houston on April 6th. We will be doing a trivia contest, with two questions from each of the Dresden File books (not including Changes since it will just be released that day).  The highest scorers and/or the people with the first two correct forms will win a LARP-ing sword, as if Harry was making them the guardian of one of the Swords of the Cross."

Sounds fun!  Read up, folks!

Can't wait.  My favorite book store, about a mile from my house and the first place I saw Jim.  Many great places to eat after?

Aww, man, it's on a Tuesday or somesuch. And I'm in New Braunfels, which isn't exactly next door to Houston (although doable on a non-school/work night).

/huge sigh.

Lucky you, Vijay, to live so close.  I'm way out past Highway 6 so I usually get there super early to miss the traffic coming into town. I'll see you there. I'll be the one most likely wearing purple and in the front row.

Yeah, good to come early as parking will not be easy and I have to deal with the Kirby construction traffic a lot. It will be cool to see who other members are.

Two hour drive, Tuesday night... Totally planning to be there. Hopefully, I can get those friends that I have "converted" to come as well.

WHY JIM WHY?  I mean Houston is a nice place and everything, but couldn't you consider just once making the Dallas/Ft. Worth area part of you route?  I mean there's this Legacy book store in Plano that attracts the likes of Stephen J. Cannell and Sarah Palin (like her or not she's a pretty big celebrity) on their book tours.  I just wish just once you got around to north Texas, we miss you over here.  I for one could never make a 6 hour drive south on a Tuesday.  :'(
