April 6/7, 2009: TC signing in Chicago, IL
Stormbringer:
I went as well and would have posted if I hadn't spent darn near ever free second of the last 24 or so hours reading Turn Coat.
It was a pretty cool event. The Q & A was interesting and Jim, as other have mentioned, made it very entertaining. I'm glad I made it out for that alone.
I got my copy of Turn Coat, obviously, and got it and a couple of the other books signed. I was near the back of the line, so it was late, but Jim kept signing until every got their chance. Given how many people there were, and how many brought tons of books and other items, that must have been a long slog.
I don't know if he's reading this but if he his: thanks, it was a great evening. I hope it happens again for the next book.

The titles are..."Hell's Bells", "Stars and Stones", and "Empty Night", as announced by Jim last night.

I know he's mentioned them before, here I believe. But some of the other tidbits he mentioned definitely seem new.

What is the Capstone Trilogy?
"..... Capstone trilogy yet?
The titles are..."Hell's Bells", "Stars and Stones", and "Empty Night", as announced by Jim last night....."?
BookLover♥:
The trilogy is the ending to the series. Jim has said he's going to write a total of 20 or so "case books" and then an "Apocolyptic Trilogy" to end the series.

McAnally you won hands down!

Thank you. Since McAnally is such a quiet character I was worried it would be missed or overlooked.
I think that the man who dressed as 'Gentleman' John Marcone was underrated. Since he only introduced himself as "John". After Jim had the costume contest participants get in line after the first group of wrist tags I had the chance to talk to him. He played the character quite well while in line.
The Pizza Spress delivery girl was a great idea.
The funny part for me since I am fairly tall was looking straight over the heads of so many of the 'Harry Dresdens'
PizzaGirl:
Hello Everyone, first time posting here. I logged in because I found out from a friend that people had mentioned me. I was the Pizza 'Spress girl at this event. I can't tell you how surprised I was that so many people liked my outfit!
McAnally, I have the photo the Borders' woman took of the three of us after we won, would you like me to post it here/e-mail it to you? I agree, John was underrated. He needed his entourage.
This was my first time at a Butcher event and it was a lot of fun, I was glad to meet all the other fans, everyone was really friendly. Haven't cracked open my copy yet (it's killing me!) as this whole week has been busy preparing to host my Mom's family for Easter, but as soon as those people leave, I'm celebrating the death and Resurrection of the Lord with a little magic and mayhem. ;)
