I just want to say that Jim Butcher had the best fans ever...and his pretty fantastic himself!
My husband and I bought books for the signing at poisoned pen weeks ago. Then suprise, my husband had to have a cervical spine decompression and fusion sx that day. Hey was supposed to be done by six.....so he made me swear I would still go...sx of course took longer and wasn't done in time. Friend drove me like a madman over there. I missed the talk (thank you poison pen for live streaming it) and couldn't even get in the door. When I got in, I started asking about signing numbers I had 18. Everyone in line kept ushering me forward, when I got to the front....they were already in the forties. With a gracious bow...the gentleman at the front let me go next. I fin't know he was only able to sign two books due to the wait, but you could get back in line if you had more. I had already handed him both of our skin games....I don't know who was with him...but she was very nicely asking about my husband and I said there was no way I could stay as I needed to return back to the hospital. Mr Butcher kindly signed Side Jobs for me (under the table lol) as this was the book my husband had wanted signed. Best author, best fans ever!
