I'll be in the city about an hour prior to the starting time so I'm cool with whenever. do you want to go to starbucks before or after?
and we could do that again just for tradition's sake.

Wait, I didn't think there was signing occurring. WHERE DID YOU HEAR THIS?

Oh. Well, given that he was going to be a 'fed square event' originally, maybe he'll still do it. I'm taking a book anyway, a) in case and b) so people will trust me.
And couldn't you just get him to sign one you already own, even though it's not WAP?

Cool. while there's no definite 'no', there's hope. Hoping for the best is not something we should be naturally inclined to, though.

To recap for everyone else, this is what he's going to be up to today. I'll do something of a liveblog here, starting in roughly 4 hours from now.

So are you guys going to stalk the guy or not? If I were you I'd totally stalk him.

Mr H is on the topic of the anger of teenaged girls, unsurprisingly.

DH reads from WAP: the time that Gwen meets Erroll for the first time.

"The whole idea of piracy was kind of a lark" when DH began researching the book. We know how that turned out.

Apparently SF has a rich history of pirates. I did not know that.
