I hope to see Jim at SDCC 2015!  I highly doubt he'll ever make a trip out to Hawaii, so this is probably my best chance to meet him.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like he'll be going this year.

Would love for Jim to come to Edinburgh at some point. Surely it cant be too hard for him he can just take that Way that comes out under Edinburgh Castle. Half hour trip from Chicago from what I hear.

If you can make /those/ kinds of travel arrangements, Im sure he'd be up for it.

I posted the below over on the 2015 schedule thread, but apparently this thread gets more attention, so I'm going to try again:
Any chance they'll be an appearance in Connecticut?  You know, there's some schools up this way, Yale, UConn, Quinnipiac, Weslyan...uh...Southern CT State University.  Oh oh, there's rich people here...but they're mostly concentrated near the NY boarder.  Ok, ok, got it: there's Mystic Pizza, you know, the subject of that 80's movie!  Right, then there's that whole thing with the owner getting nailed for tax evasion or something just recently.  Women's college basketball!  CT has that...that one UConn team.  Um, there's the Groton Navy base?  Nuclear subs?  Maybe?  PT Barnum's House - the circus guy....Uh, gambling...

...yeah...

In conclusion: State Universities, rich people, Navy subs, psuedo-famous pizza place from movie, circus guy.  WHAT'S NOT TO LOVE?!

Jim should please come to CT and bring some of that JB magic with him.

...end of copied post.

Any chance Jim could show up to one of the PAX Cons? (PAX Prime - Seattle, PAX South - Texas, Etc).

I know I did a post about this in the About Jim section, but I wanted to see if anyone viewing this post had a likewise want of a Jim Michigan Visit. I know he does Chicago Visits and I thought that maybe on the way up to or back from he could set up a Barnes and Noble or even Books a Million visit. Heck It would be fantastic if he could do a Mid Michigan Community College visit, but I know that's probably asking for wayyy too much with his busy schedule of writing and touring.

Anywhere in the North East United States would be GREAT!

Philadelphia! I saw Jim in NYC a few years back, but I heard that that is pretty rare, despite the publisher being there. I got my now wife hooked on the Dresden books and she's never had a chance to see JB in person.
Any ways we can all encourage the scheduler to add a place to future tours?

Can he come to Fort Frances? We are in the middle of nowhere, but I could use some help converting more kids at my school to Dresden Files and Codex Alera.

How about some North Texas/DFW dates? That would be great!

Pretty sure if I meant him I'd have a new best friend lol.

Teslacon Close to Jim's home, a great venue to promote his new book.

I've been pushing Dynamite to try to get him at Baltimore Comic Con for a few years. They always seem like they don't know who to talk with to get him scheduled.
