You guys! There were raffle tickets in the books! I have a winning ticket to go meet Sir Terry after the talk!
And you're interviewing the Damned?
I think 2011 is sorry and is trying to make up.
There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist
Just wanted to spread the word that my college roommate (Stasia, who writes Writer on the Side) will soon be in the LA area to promote her YA, a novel in verse about dance (pubbing on my birthday no less).
Here are the details:
Thursday 20 OCTOBER - Mrs. Nelson's, La Verne at 5 pm Gretchen McNeil and Stasia Kehoe with special guest Elise Allen
Sunday 23 OCTOBER - Vroman's, Pasadena at 2 pm Allen Zadoff, Gretchen McNeil, Stasia Kehoe with special guest Elise Allen
All authors spent their teen years as performers and will talk about how these experiences found their way onto the pages of their novels. Gretchen McNeil is a voice actress and sings with the group Cirque Berzerk and Elise Allen “co-wrote” Elixir with Hilary Duff. Stasia says that both are absolute hoots and entertainment-industry insiders so the events should be fun.
ETA: She does know about the Buffistas (and is a Buffy fan) so feel free to mention it.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I may have just tried to scroll up. On a book. An actual book.

I think 2011 is sorry and is trying to make up.
If 2011 really wants to make up with me, there needs to be winning lottery numbers and a book deal. IJS.
HOWEVER, Sir Terry remembered me, and proclaimed to everyone in line,
"Look, it's The Goth! It's not a proper Seattle signing without The Goth!"
Squee!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Aww! Sir Terry, you'll always be awesome.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oh Jilli, that's so exciting. Sir Terry remembers you!
