RobReece:
I was looking in Utube to see if there were any panels from Pensacola and came across the one listed in the subject, dated 6 days ago.  Haven't listened to it yet, but thought I'd let you all know about it...

Why do fans even go to a Q&A if they're only going to bring questions that are already on basically every youtube vid of Jim at a convention? I'd swear a full third of the content in every. frickin'. one. of them is his canned answers to how the DF was supposed to be boring to show up his teacher for pushing formulaic writing and how he came up with Alera on an internet bet.

At this point I suspect they're probably people that his publicist hired to ask him prearranged questions. That way he has a bunch of answers ready for most of the questions and can't accidentally give something away/upset someone by giving a bad answer.

My guess is that there are fans of the Dresden Files that go, but don't bother sitting through youtube video's like we do.  So the same questions get asked.  Sometimes a unique question gets asked, and Jim is pretty good on the "I'm not gonna tell you" to avoid bad answers.
