Cool.

Although, judging by her picture, I think Priscillie would make a good Molly.

See, I told you! ;D

And as for your good lady, I guess I'm going to find out.
Where would be the best place to meet up so we don't miss one another?

What days will you be there?

Anyone else wish to meet up with PD, my Lady, and I?

What about Saturday evening? We could meet in the event hall by the Mayfair games area entrance.

Really hoping to get the Friday off that weekend.  All the spots were taken at work so may have to beg.  Car has made the trip b4 though, so I know I can get there lol.

Edited:  I really need to look into times for all the happenings too.  Would suck being there too late for that one Q/A, or whatever :(

I'll be there all 4 days. I just bought new copies of Skin Game and Turn Coat to have Jim sign. I want to be able to lend out my current copies as per my normal practice, and I felt that if I got them signed, I wouldn't let them out of my sight :)

Thanks Sir Crash, but it looks like things won't work out on my end.  Work has gone to Plaid and they are anticipating Saturday this week :(  Timing sucks, but that's the way it goes sometimes.

For those of you who can't make into the Q&A there is a way you might be able to ask Jim a question.  Jim retweeted this Tuesday:

Oomba @Oomba
Ask questions LIVE at @Gen_Con! Tweet questions to @Oomba during the event. Full schedule of interviews at http://gencon.com !

Just Google longshotauthor to find Jim's tweets.
Those are my principles, and if you don't like them... well, I have others.

I can't say that I've ever got a book autograph at a con before... does anyone know if Jim's charging anything per autograph and if so how much? My financial situation took a turn for the worse recently and I need to know if I need to try shuffling funds around a bit.

I am sorry nobody answered you before. I don't think autographs are charged.
