And you even get a wink to Stephen King's IT.

Really? Im stuck half way through. Just havent felt the motivation to pick it back up. Not loving the Manx character.

Ricky, Try calling them.
212.362.8835

**Ricky** · 03-02-2013 12:20 PM

Yeah, I'll have to do that. Can't hurt to ask. My gut says that they won't ship, though.

Seems that I'm on an incredible roll this year.

Just got notification that I won a Joe Hill contest for the Christmas card and gingerbread man.

Joe will be a guest of honour at the World Fantasy Con in Brighton ... it's the same weekend as my wedding ...

With your luck, you should register for the Publisher's Clearing House giveaways here in the US. Now THAT would be a prize to win...

Congrats!

I think Ari got an overload of Juju at comicon and its drawing all things cool his way.

**Lauterer** · 03-05-2013 08:44 AM

Ari, you should start playing real money lotteries...!

**cit74** · 03-05-2013 09:02 AM

Ari - so how many contests a day do you enter? Just trying to get an idea of your lucky odds - and I'm headed to Vegas in few days - so send a few lucky thoughts my way.

Congrats Ari,... what a surprise that you win

**Ari_Racing** · 03-05-2013 10:50 AM

Thanks all!

LOL. I think I won all the contests I entered this year except two. My luck must be getting balance between 2012 (awful year) and 2013.

PRAIRIE LIGHTS BOOKS
123 S Linn ST Iowa City Public Library Iowa City, IA 52240

So, I am thinking about heading up from Kansas City for this one (4.5 hour drive). I've never been to any of these, and wanted to make sure he was doing signings? Also, will he sign more than one book. I know one would be NOS4A2 that I would purchase from the bookstore I assume, but wondered if I was able to bring something else for him to sign too, if possible.

I am not sure if I can truly make it, but would be nice to know ahead of time what to expect, etc...

**WeDealInLead** · 03-06-2013 01:27 PM

He twitted a few days ago that he'll sign whatever you put in front of him as long as he wrote it.

Also, I thought this was funny:

@joe_hill I get your books from amazon and joe they bloody rock. Your the next Stephen King in my eyes

**sgc1999** · 03-06-2013 01:28 PM

every time I have met Joe he has signed everything I brought him. Of course the size of the crowd will be a factor on wether that means 6 or 7 things or 2 dozen

Worse case he will have you go to the back of the line to get the extra stuff signed.
He is really a super sport about signing fans books/comics.

**dyetye** · 03-06-2013 01:46 PM

Thanks guys. I'm really hoping I'll be able to go, but have to work out some things and hoping to get someone to tag along with me to make it more interesting for the drive, etc...

**Dan** · 03-06-2013 01:57 PM

According to Joe Hill's Facebook site, there is going to be a big NOS4A2 announcement tomorrow. Any ideas?

**Randall Flagg** · 03-06-2013 02:00 PM

The tour dates that Ricky already found?

Sometimes its no fun having spoilers, i saw that there was going to be a big announcement as well. and then you remind us, we already know things. Spoilers can be no fun sometimes!

**dyetye** · 03-06-2013 02:23 PM

Those dates were already posted to Joe's facebook page, so I don't think that would be it, would it?

**Dan** · 03-06-2013 02:35 PM

I agree, he has been posting tour dates for several days now. Hopefully it is something different. Although, my bank account can't really use too many big announcements.

**Scoogs** · 03-06-2013 07:39 PM

Wow, a member of the King family is actually coming to the midwest! I was beginning to think they only liked the East and West coast.
Going to try for the Naperville, IL signing.

**RC65** · 03-07-2013 10:39 AM

I don't have a Facebook account. Has Hill announced anything yet?
