The closest he's going to be to me is Dragon Con in Atlanta, which is an 8-hour drive each way, plus hotel, plus admission to Dragon Con. I like Dresden and Alera and all, but not $500+ worth to hear a panel discussion, and maybe get a book signed. It's only a day trip to Orlando or Savannah, so if Mr, Butcher does a signing or a Con there sometime over the next few books, I'll be happy to see him.
