Signing in Washington D.C. (McLean, VA) on 8/1

<< < (30/50) > >>

GraveyardKing:
Well, I've confirmed it with the rest of my group.  All four of us are coming.

Stiletto:
Hmm, I might go to this.  This would be a couple hours closer to me than the Atlanta, GA signing. And as it happens, I'm already on vacation 8/1, at the beach.  So my parents could watch our kids at the beach while my husband and I went to the signing...this sounds pretty doable. We could even visit/maybe stay with my cousin in DC. :)

Will have to check with my husband and parents, tho. Got room for 2 more at the Dresden table?

Stiletto:
Unfortunately, my mother was less than thrilled at the thought of us skipping out on our family vacation, so I won't be going. Ah well.

Aine:
Don't know if we ever made it on "the list" but my +1 and I will be there...

Will there be a Q&A or signing only? 
Will the Q&A require the "Ticket Price" of buying the book there?
Will the signing be first?

Just spoke with someone from the B&N, apparently there's some changes to the event, but this is his latest information:
First, to answer my questions above...

There WILL be a Q&A session held before the signing. 
You will need a wrist band to get into the Q&A.

Here's a rough time line:
5:00 Wrist Band passed out
       This is your "Ticket," It will say Block 1, Block 2, etc.  This tells them what order you'll get signed.
7:00 Q&A to start FOLLOWED by signing.
       Signing will last until everyone is happy or Jim says its time to go. Jim's usual 3 item limit will be enforced.

In regards to buying the book from B&N.  The gentleman I spoke with said that their official policy is that you have to buy the "Featured" book from any B&N or B&N online.

You can get up to 3 items signed, usually the featured book and 2 other items. Unofficially, they've been known to not check your receipt.  I'm not risking it since your wrist band is your "ticket" to the Q&A and without a B&N copy of Ghost Story, you aren't guaranteed a wrist band.
