If I'm standing next to Duane, then I'm at University Book Store in Seattle. This is one of my favorite stores, one I hit almost every year. Usually they are one of the last on the tour, but I managed to get there earlier, and the feel of the Q&A was different as no one had read it yet. The event was also UStreamed. You can watch the Q&A and short reading right here:
Kim Harrison at University Bookstore 1/23/2013
Before the signing I had the chance to chill in the back room with Sean of The Signed Page. The books we're looking at are actually signed and ready to be shipped out to his clientele. If you're west of the Mississippi, he would make a great source for signed books as he knows just about everyone in the SF/Fantasy genres. He also produces SUVUDO, and as soon as I have his video he made for the University Bookstore event, I'll post a link
I truly love the back rooms of bookstores.
My University Roadies! We had a lot of them this year! Lots of familiar faces and lots of new ones. Click the photo to go to the high res copy to snag for yourself.
And the pictures from the bunny cam! These are the photos that you guys take for me while you're waiting in line. I got a lot of this this go, and I love it. Seattle is a creative bunch. :-)
Back -- Curious to see where else I've gone?
