And again no date. He's in for a long day if he's doing all these signings on the same day. I'm hopeing for a Friday signing for one of these dates.

Hmmmm.   That might be doable....Wichita, is only 3 hours (or so) from Lawrence.

Mystic...Jim was *great* fun, and it was a pleasure to spend time with him and his lovely Lady ;D>

Also, it should go without saying that it was also a pleasure to meet you!

Thanks for coming to Lawrence.
I enjoyed hearing you speak and hope you will come around again. Thanks for the wonderful works of some of my favorite brain candy. Your books have given me hours of escape into a wild world. Thanks again.

The trip up to Lawrence from Wichita with a car load of fellow Dresden fans (some with their own shield bracelets) was a lot of fun.  I found Jim and his fans personable, likable, and, of Jim himself, open to any geeky question that a fan might ask.  It was great to meet everyone!

Great pics!  But wow, does Jim have the entire collection of Buzzy Multimedia shirts?  I feel like every time we see him, he's wearing a different one! XD
