Book signing
Oct. 25th, 2005 08:20 amWell, we went to GRRM's book signing yesterday, braving wind and rain and bouncy ferries. I did my usual "let's leave lots of margins for error, for things to be late," so we ended up arriving really early. We'd intended a quick meal in Pizza Hut, but ended up having to eat deliberately slowly. We still ended up with 40 minutes to kill in a pub.
Then the signing. He talked for a while first, talking about the reasons for this book taking so long. It was all familiar stuff to anyone who follows his website, or the various fan sites and forums. Then he took ( questions. )
Anyway, I must rush now to get to work, so it'll have to be quick. After questions, he signed some books, and we went home, and now I've got to go out into the pouring rain and do my half-term storytimes, and - I hope - swap this borrowed car for our own car. The garage was supposed to have our car for two days, but have had it for nearly six. Grr!
