And, when Nikki Guerlain inked it up, it said something about its limphorn issue being cured.

Charles King stabbed it. And it said 'thank you.'

Monica Drake gave it butterflies.

I have not signed it yet. When is it coming to me, since I'm not going to L.A. for the Warmed And Bound Reunion? If you need my mailing address, just send me a message and I'll love on the book long time. I'll even wear my Dermaphoria t-shirt while signing it and take a pic.

This is an excellent reminder that I still need to get a copy of this. I kept forgetting because I need to order a physical copy from the Internets somewhere. Also, amazingly frustrating and simultaneously awesome that I have to get through both this and Nova Parade.

Bob, I am sending it to Axel in Denmark next. It has a long way to go. It will be coming to visit you at some point. And it said warm up the vibrating bed.

Matt Bell told me that he didn't even know this existed. You might want to try checking in with him via facebook. He is moving to the Upper Pennisula. It probably gets lonely up there. He might enjoy having so many awesome people keeping him company for a bit.

Richard, 

The event was at Powell's books and the after party was at Splash right down the street. Monica Drake picked it. And it had a bunch of games, so Jeremy and Stephen had a mean video competition. Then some girl jumped up on the bar and started dancing. That was only the beginning.

 

Pete,

I will do that. I swore I mentioned it to him, but he is a busy guy. Unless there are events with multiple authors (which is obviously the most fun) the bad boy---or girl travels via mail from one author to another. So I put the current author in touch with the author of the next destination...and so on. 

There is also a 'Friends of Warmed and Bound' section in the very back for fans and authors (Robb and Livius, Donald Ray Pollock, Monica Drake and more) to sign. The more writer's ink, the better, eh? I for sure think Pete Goutis needs to scratch its skin.

An awesome thread indeed but why has no one brought this to my attention in the first place.

Chester, not sure I deserve to write in the book after all the amazing authors who have.

Oh, yes, you do Pete, oh yes you do. There is an entire 'Friends of Warmed and Bound' section in the back. You have done a lot for the book man. And, if you don't sign it, it said "I an going to break into his house and stick a severed Pterodactyl head in his bed."

If Stephen's sister can sign it, certainly you can:

Slight change of plans on the Warmed and Bound World Tour itinerary:

WBWT's next stop is Matt Bell's new place for a House Warmed and Bounding Party.

Catalclysm Baby! Cataclysm!
