    You can preorder a signed Chu at Books of Wonder in NYC. They told me they are also trying to get Adam Rex to sign.

    Well we are back in our room. It was a great evening, caught up with both RF and patrick. The evening started shortly after 8pm and went until a little after 11pm. Fourplay - the string quartet played for a little (they were wonderful - especially if you like violin/cello - just google fourplay Dr. Who/tardis theme - you'll want to pick up some of their music). Then Neil came out and read a few short pieces - including one of my favorites - the day the saucers came, as well as a piece rejected by this American life - called adventures. It was pretty good. He also mentioned that he'll have a new short story anthology out next year - titled trigger warning (I think that's the title he said, originally he was going to call it please secure your mask before helping others, but that was too long and did not fit with the two word titles of his previous anthologies. The adventure story will be in there, as well as all of the monthly short stories he talked about in his journal earlier this year - the ones he wrote with suggestions from Fans - he read both July and October stories. Then there was a intermission, followed by the reading of the truth is in a cave in the black mountains. I had not previously read the story (when it was in stories) - but read 3/4 of it yesterday and today with Caleb. I stopped near the end so I would be able to hear the rest from Neil tonight. Worked fine, except Caleb slept through nearly all of the reading - oh well. After the main event, he read another poem - the one about saint Orin - another good read.

    All in all a very entertaining evening. No actual signing, alas there were hundreds of presigned books for sale. Between RF, Patrick, and myself I think we bought 11 or 12 signed copies of truth - so everyone here who requested one is good - without any spittle or excessive shipping. We will figure out who is shipping to whom and PM them in the next day or so. I picked up a few signed Chu's - but those are all going out as gifts to friends kids and nieces (they were only signed by Neil - not Adam Rex - like I think the books of wonder are). I even picked up a copy of the truth audio cd - since this one had the fourplay quartet playing as well - and the cover was signed by Neil as well.

    Green apple books was the "book" host - I imagine they'll have more copies of these books/CDs at their store - since there's no way they all sold out. Here's their contact info:

    506 Clement Street
    San Francisco, CA 94118
    (415) 387-2272

    I think I'm out of words. I did not take any photos, however, RF and Patrick were like little school girls at a boy band show - non stop selfies and group pictures - btw please send me photos - so I'll wait for them to post.
    Haha!

    BTW - I completely forgot about this after I got back from seeing GRRM at CarolinasCon (and maybe you all know this) but Sandman was actually rejected by George to be in his Wildcards series. Everyone in the audience laughed after George said that he would have made quite a few thousand on it

    Started the day yesterday by attending the SF Giants game. Sat about six rows up right by first base (tix purchased from a friend) and watched Tim Lincecum pitch his second career No Hitter. Simply fantastic.

    After changing out of garish game gear, met up with Jerome and Chad (and families) to go see Neil Gaiman. We all had great seats right up in the first few rows. I am a total fanboy, so it was a wonderful treat to see Gaiman again and share the evening with good friends.

    It was a very good day.
