Very byzantine process to try and register (actually apply to be accepted) for the event and the breakfast. More paperwork than a home loan.

Perhaps I'm daft, but other that Stephen and Owen doing the opening, I (must be my fault) seem to have missed something.

"Joined by Owen King, his son and co-author of the upcoming novel Sleeping Beauties, the pair will offer a special introduction to the breakfast, ‘Prologue by Stephen King & Owen King."

I just understand it that their "part" at this bookexpo is titled "prologue", but that doesnt mean that they will or will not give a printed prologue from their book.

05-12-2017, 09:51 AM
You're probably right, herbertwest. It's likely just an opening presentation. I must have gotten the word "prologue" the wrong way, thinking it's something from the novel

Got to the hotel a couple of hours ago. We're staying near Times Square. Had a beer (or two) at Beer Authority. Decent selection of beers. Flying coach sucks. We were lucky to get upgraded to a seat on an exit. All the legroom in the world, but still, tight seats. Delta is cool. Free internet, free movies etc. Free light breakfast. Too bad I'm flying Alaska home. We'll see how that goes.
BTAIM, looking out from the 37th floor with Times Square below, and the Hudson off to the west.

Walking around is tres cool. Characters everywhere, but no sense of danger. Loving that part of NYC.

Randall Flagg

Matt, and Glenn arrived at the Javits Center ~6:30 am today. Dolores and I were a few minutes later, then David showed up. There was already an outside queue of ~25 people, but half or more were not there for the Author Breakfast event (they needed to sign in for credentials, wanted to get in line for a different event, numerous reasons). As with many of these events, no one with any authority or true knowledge was around to inform people where to line up, when the doors would open, where to go-you name it. We only knew where the Main Stage was as we had reconnoitered the day before.

Seeing as how it's better to be bold, I went through the only unlocked door. Directly inside was a security guard. I already knew he didn't know any details. He asked me "may I help you?". My assertive response was "No. I know where I'm going, I'm meeting staff in front of the main stage. There are 3 of my assistants who be will here momentarily.". He of course let me pass.
I don't want to say more, as coordinators for future events will become more nazi-like.

Long story short, David grabbed his credentials and we were in line (inside not outside with the people who were not correctly informed), about 9th in line. There was no staff there to organize people into different lines for the ~3 tiers of seating available. Glenn took charge and informally; (actually formally) began organizing people and informing them of the different tiers. 15 minutes before the doors were to open, in just a few moments, 20+ people just appeared and formed their own line opposite the barricades. Glenn was prompt in correcting that issue and making them go to the end of the proper line. The place should have paid Glenn for his work.

Glenn, David and I were holding the place in line. Dolores and Matt went to use the bathroom get a book signed.
Needless to say, being in the right place at the right time (outside the head when King came out of the Green Room searching for the restroom) paid off.
King said he would sign one book per person. My wife handed him Roadwork and The Long Walk and said "you choose". King chose Roadwork and Stephen King kindly signed it. King also signed a book for Matt.
Once allowed in, our group sat at the front center table. Continental breakfast was on the table.
After a delightfully brief introduction, Owen and Stephen came onstage. Owen talked for about 4 minutes, then Stephen talked for 4 minutes. They exited and never returned. That was when the official event began.

Believe it or not, we were there from 8am-10:30 am and never saw a horse (or road apples). There were very few people at the beginning. Just as we were leaving, several horse drawn carriages, and a tour group of 100+ people on bicycles were coming into the park.

Anyway.

Met John Gresham. Harlan coben. Mary higgins Clarke. Missed michael connelly. Book expo was awesome

That's awesome! I would love to get to a Grisham signing someday.

I thought it sucked. Hundreds of dollars. Byzantine almost unnegotiable Web site and app.

I tend to agree with Jerome...other than hanging with the members here, there was NOTHING worth my time and $$ spent.

I will give a "shout out"/kudos/thankee sai to Matt (Lot Guy) who gave me his "go to the front of the line" signing ticket. I was able to use it to help Glenn get a second signed Mary Higgins Clark book without having to wait in the long line...a worker claimed our tickets and took us right up to the front. Those "special" tickets I think cost an extra $190...They even charged you for EVERY little burp and fart let me tell you. I feel especially bad for the way out of towners who spend hundreds on plane fare. While ticket to get in and to the breakfast cost me $350 and commute cost me $35, like I said, best part was hanging with the members....were it not for that, wasted money. (And not because I did not get a book signed).

I was emailed a link to answer (too many questions) about the event. I apolgize for not capturing their questions. Perhaps another attendee can.
BTAIM, my response give a general idea as to my feelings about the event.


Insanely overpriced. I can only imagine that only those on an expense account could afford this.
Zero information when at the venue. Literally no one knew what was going on, when, where etc.
The website and app are impenetrable at best, and generally byzantine.

Reduce the price. You had an incredibly large venue, yet never seemed to come close to even 50% capacity,

Nothing of interest in every way.

Keynote speakers (Stephen King, Owen King) should talk for more than 4 minutes each before disappearing.

The recommendations you were presented with were ones that were selected based on profile information (like registration) and were generated via an algorithm to help identify companies specifically targeted for you. They were not sponsored and were geared at helping you find new companies or products you might not have been aware of before that matched your interests.

Waste of time!
Consider my opinions as an "algorith" you have that will not provide you with a true persons (someone whom paid hundreds-if not thousands of dollars to attend) opinion. The algorithm will negate my feedback and make you feel as if you did wonderfully-NOT!

There was not a single person who seemed to know what was going on for the entire event!

Thanks for the heads-up regarding that broadside, Randall Flagg. I can see some has popped up at eBay, plus the broadside of Finders Keepers. Will see if I can get me one of each.

I have an extra bookmark. I can send you. A famous author like you should have people to get this kind of stuff for you. in fact, they should be writing your posts from now on. Get a really good assistant.

Interesting that it has 2018 on the back. Must have been printed when the plan was to release it in 2018...

It would be a bit redundant to print a 2017 calendar for a show that debuts in late 2017.

I'm waiting for a box of oversize 11/5"x14" photo mailers to arrive. I ordered from Amazon as they are significantly less expensive (around 80 cents each), but it's a 3rd party vendor and comes slow (not next day Prime).
Once the mailers get here, I'll take a few requests. Until then, please hold off on public requests. I'll mail them out at cost (envelope+postage). I think I have at least 12 of the broadsides and 3x5 promos for Sleeping Beauties. Unfortunately I only grabbed 4 or 5 of the bookmarks.

I appreciate reading about the event and seeing the photos and the short King video. Bummer the event wasn't such that you all could enjoy it more. I agree with the sentiment that often the best thing about these events is hanging out with other TDT members.

I'd love a broadside and/or bookmark, but I'll wait til later to ask.
