<< < (45/50) > >>

I should have joined this group a long time ago. Let alone AFTER he shows up in Va. I need to have more friends that read Dresden.. I was there last night in group 2. I was the one with the button that said Polka will never Die...

Zheryl:
Hey guys we had a great time, it was totally worth the drive up there.  Doink67, your mom was awesome and you totally have to bring her to future events.  And for everyone that went to Gordon B's before and after, thanks for a great time.  For those of you who missed it, the Q&A session Myyrdn recorded is definitely worth the listen even if the video isn't up to snuff.

(click to show/hide)Mab didn't lie.  She was just wrong.
Disclaimer--I missed the question that was asked, and that was all I heard from Jim's answer (the people next to me were talking and laughing about...chihuahuas...of all things).  From the little bit I got, that seems to answer the question we've had debated pretty heavily here in other threads, as to (click to show/hide)whether Mab (and by extension, the Fae) could and did lie, or whether Uriel lied.

I asked specifically on that last point when I was walking through the line.

(click to show/hide)"No, Uriel can't lie. Well, if he could, it'd mean that he got a new boss." - that's as close a paraphrase as I can remember.
I was the guy at the front of group 3 in the green shirt. Toe-mas, looks like I found a reason to register. I'm glad one of my questions got answered; I was one of the "I'm not going to tell you" questions from earlier in the session.

Wanted to chime in and say that I, too, had a fantastic time last night! It was really great to meet Jim and Fred and a bunch of other fans, though it was incredibly briefly. Wish we'd been able to hang out, but our ride had been up since 2 a.m. and we all had to go to work in the morning.

Thank you so much to everyone who talked to me about Dresden Pony and Bob Pony! Seeing the smiles on people's faces when they noticed him was a treat and I felt really good about all the lovely compliments they got. I'm so thankful to Jim, too, for signing the base for me and for seeming to be really tickled by them. (And for not running away! LOL!)

Can't wait to check out some video of the Q&A. I only got to hear half of it and my husband didn't get to hear any of it because of some other things that were going on. What I did hear was awesome and got me salivating to read Ghost Story!

I listened to the audio on my Flip on the way back from DC, sounds good.  Gotta get that ripped & posted.

I think Jim broke out "I'm not going to tell you" at least 6 times!  Who's on the hit list was one time.

First sentence of Cold Days, (click to show/hide)"Mab had some interesting ideas on Physical Therapy..."
I'll get more posted tomorrow. Today. Later Today, you know what I mean...
