Jim's 2011 Schedule

[Yeratel]

They will not be, alas.  Jim tends not to do the big cons two years in a row.

Ah, well.  I can only afford to get up to Atlanta about every other year, myself.  By the next time Jim makes it to Dragon*Con, he should have at least two more books out to be signed.

Goin' to the VA signing, yeah!  Dinner anyone?

When is the San Diego Comic Con? I've been looking for an excuse to spend a weekend there.

July 21st-24th.  However, tickets sold out within hours back in...  February?

I think a few do pop up closer to July (they did last year) but don't hold your breath.  Here's the website:

I suggest you sign up to e-mail alert/Twitter if you're really interested in going.  Of course, those tickets might be sold out.  I haven't been following.  (It is something that can be loaded into an iGoogle home page, which is how I keep up to date.)

Just found this article from the SDCC survival guide.  It suggests tickets might still be put up in late June/early July.

I'm going, but I was lucky that I didn't work on the sign up day.  I know that alone took up an hour of my time.

Ah well... **Marks his calendar to check again next year**

Nevermind my request in the other thread then.  =)

Hi, uh, this might not be the right place to ask, but what's the policy of bringing a book to the signings? Like, do you have to purchase a copy there at that time to qualify or can you bring your own?

Most places want you to buy one at the store you are attending.  In the Signing tour thread, I pasted the link below, several won't let you have anything signed without the purchase there.

Which were you thinking of attending?

The one in Tribeca, NY. I plan on buying the book from B&N anyway, but I should probably call them and ask if a receipt would be enough of a validation. Thank you!

Glad to   Yeah, I don't see why they wouldn't allow it if you bought it from them, just at an earlier date.  As Priscellie didn't mention anything about having to buy it there, you may be safe anyway.  Good luck and ask something cool!

So we've got a whole bunch of nothing scheduled for the next couple months?

Yup.  Probably for the next year, actually.

Hopefully for Jim AND Shannon. Good lord, those two travel.

I really hope Jim takes some well-deserved time off with his family and just relaxes!

As long as he gets some LARPing in there as well.

I'm hopeful that he might have some free time to surf the Internet and post on some quality message boards.    *coughcough*

Well, we are having a Birthday party here in KC for Harry.  Maybe his publicist (Jim) and his lovely wife will come.  I'll be sure to get them an invitation.
