Here's the low down on University Bookstore:
There will be enough parking. It's not that bad come 6:30 at night on a week day. They give you a ticket that you bring into the store with you. If you can,
do not buy your book early and bring it with you; buy the book at the bookstore. If you do that, your time at the event will be covered and you won't pay a dime for parking as they will stamp your parking ticket. Plus, it's just a courtesy to buy your book at the store that is hosting the event, in my opinion.
I think this will be one of Duane's larger events, so get there early if you can. Duane is the head of science fiction/fantasy at the U Bookstore, and he always puts on a good show. To get an autograph, it costs nothing. But like I said, please buy your book at their store -- if a bookstore doesn't show good sales of an event book, the publisher may cut back an author's tour next time. We don't want that to happen with Jim.
If you have any other questions about the U Bookstore event, just ask. I live two miles from it and go there for most events.
