Why oh why do we torture ourselves like this?  LOL

I won't know until April whether I can get the time off but I'm hoping. It does look like an amazing lineup.
How do you know you have a good book?  It's 3am and you think "Just one more chapter!"

Added a bunch of events, including Kiama Library in New South Wales and Phoenix ComiCon!  A few of the places Jim will be hitting for his book tour broke the news early, so I've added them to the calendar, but this is NOT a complete list!  I'll share that as soon as I have the go-ahead from his publisher.

The author guest list for that one is truly amazing.

And, there's still more to be announced, including several more Tor Books and Del Rey authors (both publishers will be exhibiting).  Penguin/Ace will have a presence but aren't exhibiting.

Although, even with the others to be announced, I think it is a toss-up between Jim and Charlaine Harris as to who will draw the bigger crowd.  Charlaine will be in Scottsdale on tour in Mid-May, so Jim's signing lines will likely be longer at the convention.

As programming gets fleshed out, I'll post details in the Phoenix Comicon thread.

Oh, hi, Lee! Didn't know you were here as well as on FB and Twitter (I usually find people in the opposite direction :) ). Listen, you guys must be doing something right, as PHXCC seems to be a powerful draw to writers!

There's a rather conspicuous location missing from this tour so far... *coughChicagocough*
Sharing Jim Butcher's initials since 1987.

I've never been to any "Con".  Would love to try GenCon IF I could hear Jim B talk.
So far, I've seen that he will be at GenCon, BUT - Specifically - WHEN ?? 
It looks like it goes Thursday thru Sunday. 
IF I only go Sat & Sun will I get to hear Jim ??   :o
Please advise.     (former normal, converted to semi-nerd status by the Dresden-verse)

I mean "nerd" in the most LOVING, ENDEARING way.
Can I still be one IF I never really read comic books ??   Maybe a peripheral-nerd ? ? 
(periferal?) Oh  H***, now I have to look up peripheral to see if I spelled it correctly.   ;D
Can I be a nerd IF I like to read dictionaries for fun ?

I just found out that my leave was approved! I'm going to Phoenix Comicon. It'll be my first con.
