Yet another vote for Dallas, TX please.

Last Sci Fi event here involved a bunch of vamps from Bon Temps Louisiana.  No doubt in my mind though that Dresden would beat the stakes out of some TrueBlood butt.

Hmmm - Red Court vs. Eric Northman....
Who is hotter - Sookie or Susan?

and please, no pansy-ass Team Edward nonsense...

such novel metaphors, all thrown in a blender, and served like a margarita  ;D

Haven't read all the votes, so I don't know exactly how many people are with me on this one, but Mannheim, Germany? Know its a stretch, but hell, its definitely worth throwing out there. I mean, everybody wants to come to Germany. Check out the Autobahn, see all the museums and countryside, walk through the *cough cough* red light district. All kinds of cool stuff!  But seeing as how our bookstore here, at least the American one here on post, is very limited in its selection I was seriously worried about Ghost Story even making an appearance on our shelves.  :(  I had to order Changes through Amazon, and just preordered GS a couple months ago. Suffice it to say that there would be plenty of time for you to kick back and get some good R&R, a chance to sell your books to not only the military community over here, but also the local nationals, and you would also have a good deal of sightseeing opportunities with all the castles and ruins here for any writers block inspiration that you could need.

How about an author tour in South Africa...
I know some of the people at Penguin SA, sure I could pull some strings ;D Can end the tour at my store in Nelspruit and then spend some time game-viewing in the Kruger Park. (okay, now I'm starting  to sound desperate...)

SA WANTS JIM!!!

Seriously, is there a signing schedule for the July release?

There is, but I've been instructed to keep it secret from you specifically.

(Kidding, I haven't received the dates/locations yet.  But I usually get details a smidge over two months ahead of release, and we're about two and a half months away now.  No cause for concern!)

Salt Lake City, Utah.  It's pretty, and full of mormons.  Why wouldn't he want to come here? :)
My opinion is so valuable, that when I give someone my two cents, I usually get back change.

I think it might work if you promise to look EXACTLY like your avatar when you meet him. :D
When you wish upon a falling star, your dreams can come true. Unless it's really a meteorite hurtling to the Earth which will destroy all life. Then you're pretty much hosed no matter what you wish for. Unless it's death by meteor.

Dang, I was scrambling to pop some aspirin for a heart attack while planning a Des Moines Signing dinner party!  :-)  I mean we aren't that far away, only the blasted air fare from KC is so high! You can fly anywhere in the country cheaper and i doubt they'd have time for a road trip!  :-)    I'll be in KC though if they are going to be there. Keep him away from Scottsdale, too hot in July...

Omaha, the last time he was here for Turn Coat we took him out to supper would like to do that agian.
I've heard the promises I've seen the mistakes I've had my fair share of tough breaks.
I need a new voice, a new law, a new way.
Take the time, reevaluate it's time to pick up the pieces, go back to square one.
I think it's time for a change.
