Waldo Butters M.E.:
wrings his hands in angst over Jim not coming to south Texas

Apologies. I had thought it was Jim that had said that at some point.

1) You wait nobly to purchase your book until signing day. Your sacrifice of reading time helps bump your store a little bit farther up the Maybe They'll Get Him To Come Back Here list. Win.
2) You aren't BURNING with the powerful urge to SPOIL ALL THE THINGS. Win.
:D

1) Heh, I don't think I could even wait the extra day to start reading this book, tbh. I'll be buying a copy here in town and one at the store in Naperville. One of my nieces is into DF, not as much as I mind you, so I'll give her the extra book after the signing. But, yeah, I do want as many return visits to the area as possible. Definately Win.
2) And miss all the 'I know something you don't know!' teasing I can do of people? I don't think so! Still Win :)

Would buying a different book in the series also be appropriate because i still need turncoat and i was thinking i would just buy that one there instead of Ghost Story

Brandon Sanderson's suggestion is that even if the store doesn't require you to buy the book there, at least buy *A* book, so that you're supporting the store. So I'd say buying Turn Coat would apply to that, and also apply to showing you appreciate Jim, specifically, being there.
