My Bachman Books collection is almost complete. Just received Roadwork and a nicer copy of Rage. Now I just need to swap out The Long Walk for a NAL copy, and I'm done

Well, the IT week in Argentina is finally over and I couldn't be more happy about it. I was able to meet both Andrés and Bárbara Muschietti (Director and Producer of IT Movie) in person. I was already in touch with both due to my book (I sent them copies back in January) but it was really nice to be able to talk with both in person...a lot. Last Monday I talked for five minutes with both before they were interviewed by one of the most important radio shows in Argentina (which host is a friend of mine) and both received as a gift the IT Gliceé print produced by Suntup Press (thanks Paul for the fast shipment!). Then I went to the press conference presented by Warner. On the next day I interviewed Andy for the press junket (interview is in Spanish and can be watched here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZjap-DpeWE) and at night I attended the VIP screening, which was presented by Andy and Bárbara, and both watched the movie with us. It was a really nice event and I was able to giveaway 60 tickets for that VIP screening (I even had more ticket than any other media). And on Thursday I attended the best event of all: a private event for 30 guests in a restaurant/bar, where Andy and Bárbara attended, took pics, signed stuff and most of all TALKED a lot with everyone. I spent nearly an hour talking with him, I got insight on some nice details of the production and he also invited me to watch the scenes that didn't make it to the film nor will do to the Director's Cut. So next year I have to attend a conference in Charlotte and will travel to LA for a day or two.
Once again, I was asked to do a lot of interviews, including one small for TV and I have five more this week only, including one in the largest newspaper of the country. I got A LOT of stuff in these last two weeks and Warner will give me more this week. For now, these are the things I got:
This is a gift given to journalist for the press conference:
Some cool items, including the S/L of Mister Slaughter. I paid $153 for it.
The boat is signed by Andy Muschietti. The other boat is part of the stuff used by Warner for the promotion:
With Andy Muschietti and the paperbook he sketched and signed. I'm NOT drunk:
With Bárbara Muschietti:
With both Muschiettis and my two friends and partners in the library we founded and own, and another friend:
The VIP Screening:
At the hospitality room waiting for the press junket interview. And see the cool item in the desk:
The newspaper that asked me to write a column:
And finally, I was the winner of this particular item. I contacted Marsha before paying it and she told me she was pretty sure it was legit. Kinda interesting because I didn't have an item signed by King before Carrie.

Ari, well done for everything (IT related) and glad that you got the early program since I believe it went quite cheaply ($200is if my memory is correct).
Great stuff!
