Jim, Shannon, and Deidre Knight at B&N in Independence, 8/14

What no one is going to tell us what Jim said at the signing?

We who could not be there want to know tidbits of info he let slip!

There's...not really anything to tell. I mean, it was just a signing, there was no Q&A. I think Jim was there as much to support Shannon and Deidre as he was himself.

Also, there weren't many people there. What line there was was perhaps 15 minutes long at the longest. Probably could have gone through a few times if I'd wanted to.

Sorry I forgot my shamrocks, guys.  Saw a number of folks I know from previous events.  Yay!  MegEvonne was there! Soulless Mystic, of course.  Gingerbread Man was there. It was good to meet you Knight Disciple!  I aske several couples if they were from Oklahoma, but didn't manage to encoutner Piotr & Herself  (maybe next time?).   

Cool people, as is usual at a Butcher signing. 

Diedre was also cool.  I bought the first of her books and the latest of Shannon's, and the "Dark and Stormy Knights", of course.

Diedre is also Shannon's agent, if I recall correctly. 

Shannon has another book coming out in November (in the Sentinel Wars series).

Jim is working on his new series, but not ready to talk about it yet.

There were many photos taken. Can't recall the name of the guy in the red shirt was next to in a group shot. (If you read this, please remind me!)   I even managed to get a few on my digital camera.  Haven't yet had time to look at them or try to post some. One of these days.

The gentleman in the red Kool-Aid Man shirt was Cape Rust, a contributing writer at Geek Life. He asked myself, Mystic, and a couple other people some questions about Dresden, the event, being a fan, etc.

Looking forward to pictures from people!

Thanks, KD.  Now I'll have to see if he's the one I was next to in a group shot.

We were actually there for a whole 5 minutes. <LOL>
Then life, in the form of a (thankfully minor) family emergency poked it's head up out of it's burrow...Sending us scurrying to take care of things...
Sorry to have missed everyone - things just conspired to keep us from being where we wanted to be.
Did manage to get in some minor amount of antiquing before heading home.

So, yes please, next time...
