So it's looking   Cool for them.  Chicagoland has been lucky enough to have two visits over the last three years.  Mind you, on the off-chance a stop happens to be within 4 or 5 hours of home, I will be taking a ride, weather permitting :)

Yeah, Jim comes anywhere in the Lone Star State and I'm there.

What areas/places would you like Jim to come to for the Ghost Story tour?

I would love for him to come to North Carolina myself for a signing or something, anywhere outside the state is just too far away for mwah.

I'm really hoping for Portland, Oregon, or possibly even Olympia, Washington.  I live out on the Washington coast and those are the closest places that are even remotely likely.  I could do Seattle, but the traffic getting to and from there is the absolute pits.

It's not a question of return on investment.  Penguin rarely has Jim visit the same city twice in a row, because they want fans all over the country to get their chance to meet him!  Look at how many cities folks are clamoring for him to visit in this thread.  There's only one Jim!  Share the love. :D

Makes perfect sense.  I thought there were repeats in New York and stuff.  Any chance in repeating locations every 2-3 books :)

I don't think Jim has ever done a signing in Iowa. At least not since I've been a fan. Cedar Rapids or Iowa City would be great, though a suppose a road trip to Des Moines isn't unreasonable. Though, I have to admit if he does a signing in Chicagoland, I'd still be tempted to make the trip.

Get yourself a good road atlas, like the Rand McNally, which is updated yearly.  For getting around in areas too small to be covered by that, I recommend a local county map, most of which are available through Barnes and Noble. 

Dratted GPSs have gotten me completely turned around and to the wrong location more times than they've been of use.  Give me a good, old fashioned map any time!  Hmmm...which reminds me, I need to see if I can find a .pdf file of the RM Road Atlas for my netbook.  Save on all of that paper. 

ETA: COOL!  Rand McNally has directions on their site!  If you get lost easily, I suggest you give them a try: http://maps.randmcnally.com/

GenCon in Indianapolis next August would be cool Tracy Hickman has been there the few times I was along with several other writers it is a gaming convention so the DF RPG would fit right in easily...

I would very much like for Jim to do a book signing in South Florida like Ft Lauderdale, or West Palm Beach.

Hey, a sunny Florida trip in the winter might be nice for him, and an ironic way to celebrate the release of Cold Days!

Cincinnati, Ohio   is very centrally located.  Jim & Co could use my church's auditorium. It seats about 1000 & has 2 Giant screens so the folks in the balcony can see. It's new-ish.  Of course, couldn't do Saturday or Sunday event. Greater Cincinnati & Northern Kentucky airport is a Delta hub.  I-75 connects MANY MANY states.  We have Joseph-Beth Booksellers that could provide the book ordering facilities. Hotels here are very reasonably priced.  I volunteer for legwork.  NOW is not too early to be thinking about the book that follows Cold Days !!!!!

Indianapolis, Indiana or Louisville, Kentucky. Both are close to me and I've been dying to meet Jim in person.
