He's outside KC; at every book release, he usually has at least a signing or two in the KC area. So if you're going to be around for another 6 months or so, chances are pretty good that you'll get your wish.

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'd chime in with Orlando, FL, but if he aims for several spots in Florida with one in the central vicinity, I'd be over the moon.   ;)
That, and the SDCC would be nice (went in 2009, and missed him by a year).

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.

Austin Texas, There is a great Barnes and Noble at the Arboretum where they do signings all the time. Also Jim can stop by the Amys Icecream and load up on Texas's best ice cream.

Yes! London! Please, nice Mr. Butcher, you can stay at my house.  Well, room.  well, maybe that's even a bit generous, but... you know what? If you do come over, you might want to get youself a hotel.  I've just looked around and there's about 4ft free on the floor.  not even 4 sq.ft.  BUT! I'll come dressed up.  I have a leather duster and a cowboy hat, bought from the markets.  London!
