Volratho Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 I will be there along with the audio equipment I usually bring to the Chicagoland signings. Hopefully we can get access to the location's audio equipment this time, that would simplify it for everyone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should 100% start the conversation early though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EponasSong Posted September 26, 2018 Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 Count me in. Hopefully Brandon is feeling better this year (I think he had a cold or something last year). Hopefully I will meet some of you there, I will try to wear something noticeable. Probably something Zelda related, because Heaven forbid I wear something else. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago is often a late step in his tours, so there's plenty of opportunities for people to give him something, but he is usually fine, so I am willing to flag last year as a fluke. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strangerthanfiction Posted October 23, 2018 Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 I'll be there...my first book signing ever, my favorite author, and only about two hours from campus so I'm not even skipping any classes (if I'm being honest though, I would have if it hadn't worked out so well)...I'm very excited. :):):):) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can try finding me when you arrive (I'll probably share a photo closer to the event, once I decide how much beard to have), and I hope to whip more than few people into being a community, at least for the time being. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrightnessSamantha Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 I am 99% sure I'm going! It's my first book signing so I will probably just observe but feel free to say hi and I will do the same! Would love to meet some local Sanderfans! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lyssie95 Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 I might be coming! Realized we're flying in to visit my girlfriend's family that day so it seemed too cool a chance to miss, as I started her on Sanderson books a couple months ago. If I do come ill be a touch late though, have to get from midway to there during what I assume is a not fun rush hour. Does anyone who's gone to events at this location before know if we'll need to buy two separate tickets? Or could we squeak through on a parent & teen ticket if we only want the one copy? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually sit away from the signing line, putting together a group of local-ish friends, we should be able to give you a few names to talk to. 18 hours ago, lyssie95 said: I might be coming!

Arriving late shouldn't be a problem. I don't know about the ticket situation though, I could see it going either way. You could check with the venue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I called the bookstore and after being transferred and spending some time on hold while they deliberated, they said it was okay to use the parent/teen option for other relationships wherein you wanted two tickets but only one book. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronze V Posted November 9, 2018 Report Share Posted November 9, 2018 This will be my first signing and I'm so excited. I was wondering if the q&a will only be for skyward geared questions, or can they be cosmere related too. Also is the venue at a bookshop or at a church? (I wanted to buy another book and get it signed there as well) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I wanted to buy another book and get it signed there as well) Hey, make sure you come say hi! The Q&A is open (i.e. Brandon just picks questions from the audience), but spoilers of any kind are generally frowned upon. So you can ask Cosmere questions, but try to dance around spoilers. For example, if you have read The Way of Kings: Spoiler Instead of asking something like "Is Taln really Taln?" you could phrase that as "Is the person who shows up in Kholinar in the epilogue really who he claims to be?" The event will be taking place in the church, but it is being organized by the bookshop, so any questions you have should be directed to Anderson's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argent Posted November 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2018 I was updating my list of questions (link in my signature) earlier, and realized I am starting to run low on questions - in fact, some of the Shardworlds don't have any right now! So, as I think about what I want to add to it, I am also kind of opening it to suggestions. No promises that I will use anything, but if something looks interesting enough to me, I might adopt it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn’t a Cosmere one, but something I was slightly curious about after reading Skyward: SKYWARD SPOILERS: Spoiler Which movement of the New World Symphony did M-Bot play for Spensa? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strangerthanfiction Posted November 16, 2018 Report Share Posted November 16, 2018 Apparently my insomnia gets worse the night before I get to go to my favorite author's book signing...imagine that. And yet there's still 18 hours, an ethics class, an upper level Russian class, and two hours of driving until the actual event. ......those classes are going to take forever. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
