It's definitely an interesting problem to have. Thus, I call it my SuperVillain power.<br /><br />Jak, I'm still nervous when I meet authors I like. I wish I could get past that fan girl attitude. I don't have it for actors, but I sure do for writers that I respect.<br /><br />Loverofwords, oh, how fun to attend a signing by her! I would have loved to have seen the Tattered Cover in its older iterations.Shannon Lawrencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00934641808195675935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646134662936278718.post-38182506593781400312013-02-06T13:54:32.981-07:002013-02-06T13:54:32.981-07:00I love the Tattered Cover.

Then a great space in Cherry Creek North, but the rent became too high and it moved to LoDo in Denver. I have been to a few book signings; at one for Judy Collins and she even sang for us! They can be fun and interesting.loverofwordshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05763349886822924646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646134662936278718.post-81421774308870546022013-02-05T23:58:51.319-07:002013-02-05T23:58:51.319-07:00I am glad you had a great time, despite the ticket...I am glad you had a great time, despite the ticket! I had never heard of Kim Harrison, but it sounds like she has been working on that series for some time.<br /><br />I hope to be able to go to a signing, at some point.

Pretty f...Marcy, this was my first of this nature. Pretty fun! Readings at Cons tend to be longer, and I have a hard time with them, but this was well done.<br /><br />Alex, if the snow had started sooner than halfway, I may not have been so determined! Not sure, though.<br /><br />Carrie, those are the things that happen to me, too! So you escaped that particular curse? I even tried a kinetic watch and it never stopped running, but was absolutely never on time, ha! I've met Kelley Armstrong, and she was awesome. Nice and supportive, willing to answer questions.<br /><br />Sherry, brave...or stupid?<br /><br />Shaharizan, I have an issue with electricity. I can blow up light bulbs, too. It's sort of like super duper static electricity. My grandfather had a heart condition related to electrical pulses, so it may be something like that.<br /><br />ABftS, gawwwww! I just got the biggest prick of a meter maid, apparently. Maybe if I didn't have such a bad attitude about going to Denver it would go better? Self-fulfilling prophecy? Phlbbbbbt.<br /><br />Andrew, funny is good; you should definitely tell that one. Kim Harrison writes Urban Fantasy.<br /><br />Cherie, I did! I'm even venturing up to Denver for an MWA workshop on Valentine's. We'll see how that goes.<br /><br />Susan, at that point is was possibly damned if you do, damned if you don't. I've had a snowstorm move right along with me as I headed south, and there's a place that is notoriously bad in the snow (Monument Hill) that wasn't worth driving through in rush hour.<br /><br />Julie, haha, real!? It spanked me. Have you gotten the boot? Glad they can't track me down here, but I'll be a good citizen and pay my ticket. Shit, I should see when that's due by!<br /><br />Mina, sooooooooooooooooo much more thrilling! That's all I could imagine while I was sitting in there.

Denver is terrible for parking. I get tickets regularly. If you don't pay, they give you a nice Denver Boot on your car. But they won't find you in the Springs! Kim Harrison sounds amazing.

We've been to many a good book signing there (and the bar next to it, the Wynkoop, is awesome). Kirk Farber even had a signing there. It was a lot of fun.<br /><br />Also, it seems you have some crappy luck, because of all the times I've parked downtown my meter's run up more than a few times, and I've never gotten a ticket.

They were fun and I love that I have those signed books now.<br /><br />I had to laugh about your battery issue. My mom and grandpa drain their cell batteries like crazy, and watches fall out of sync when my mom wears them. Me, I just lose the stuff, then it's not a problem. ;)Carrie Sorensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10458547954843396305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646134662936278718.post-44157777618545335942013-02-04T08:20:14.881-07:002013-02-04T08:20:14.881-07:00You were determined to go, weren't you?
