TAMPA, FLORIDA!!!!!!!!
Florida is a big state and many of those who live here read. It is true. Some of us read LOTS... and some of the "lots" are books featuring Mr. Dresden.
PLEASE come to Florida!!
I'm living in VA now, and I'm totally stoked about getting to see JB at marscon, but having been born and raised in nFL I wana add to this comment.
Not only is FL a big and populous (jeeze I hope I spelled that right) state, but for my folks in the south/central Florida area, it takes over 3 hours to
leave the state on a beeline for GA. Getting to Atlanta takes much longer than that and outside FL that's the closest metro area that JB has visited that I know of. And Miami is another 2.5 hours south of where they live.
A trip to Orlando would put JB within about a 3 hour drive of several pretty big areas (Miami, the Palm Beaches, Tampa, Jacksonville, Boca, Tallahassee (a little farther), Orlando itself, and everything in between). And for many of these areas, getting outside the state is a much much longer drive.
