Joe Hill, Author

Does anyone know anything about the tv series he's working on? He mentioned it at the reading I went to but didn't go into specifics. My guess is it would be slightly horror themed but I could be wrong. I'm quite curious about it.

some of these photos are from Joe Hill's twitter-

So my wife and I went to the South Portland Books-a-Million Joe hill signing.



There were around a hundred people there. Everyone suddenly turns around and we see Stephen King there, standing in the back. Here he is in the center, back-



He is immediately surrounded and he graciously takes photos with several people and signs several blank sheets of paper for people. My wife headed back with our copy of Road Rage but he told her "Sorry, I can't, I'm here to watch Joe".



Joe does his talk, which was very funny and engaging.




Then he starts signing books. One of the people there was author John Connolly (sp?)-





Then I notice the employees wheeling big bins of SK books into the back of the store. I knew what was coming so I got ready for a sprint. They reappeared with a huge number of signed paperbacks. I snagged quite a few, there was no limit.

Also present was Israel Skeleton, maker of the Keys from L&K-



I ended up with ten signed books-





We asked an employee to take our copy of Road Rage back so we could get both signatures on it and they did!-







All of these signed-







What a day. Dave Williamson, you should have made the drive!

Sorry, but I am so jealous that I won't merge this thread, I am simply going to delete it.











JK.
Still jealous, and will forever remain so, but also thrilled that a valued forum member was fortunate, and shared. I might not merge for a decade.
Congratulations again, .....you bastard...

Congrats. Sounds like a once in a lifetime thrill. Glad you were there, had a fun time, and got some signed books. Awesome!

Dumb question, and if you don't want to share, I understand, but how much did they sell the signed King books for? Or were they just normal price? I've never been to a signing, so I apologize if my question seems stupid, lol. Thanks!

They just sell them for cover price.

Joe genuinely is a really nice guy from what interviews with him I've watched online especially when he gets asked about living in his dads shadow
