Was wondering...

<HTML>Mr Fforde,

Your book is phenomenal! However, I see all these lucky people with all these little postcards that were inserted during booksignings. My problem is, I live in Las Vegas, and it seems that authors just avoid this city like the plague!! Do you have any plans on visiting Las Vegas for a signing? I sure hope so, I feel neglected.

Regards,
Nay

<HTML>Forget the USA (and I mean that of course in the nicest possible way)- how about sunny Norfolk in the UK - we rarely get good authors doing signings up this way although Ottakars have been good of late.

Any chance you could find your way to the backwaters of england?!</HTML>

<HTML>Not forgetting the Isle of Wight - the original, absolute, very-back-backwater.
We want to see you, Jasper!</HTML>

<HTML>Isle of Wight nothing. Come to Stratford - we haven't had a writer here for, ooh, 400 years or so. See 'The Shapkespeare Theory' thread for a proper explanation of quaint Stratfordian customs...

Real backwater is Forest of Dean. 40,000 people and two surnames... Technically the people there are now clones....</HTML>

<HTML>Clones indeed. Two signings and they'd all be pleased. Do a signing in Reading. Apart from it's ironic name for an author to come to, it's got nothing much to offer.


Except me, of course.</HTML>

<HTML>And me. Well, soon anyway.

It can't be that bad, can it?</HTML>

<HTML>Why not Perth? It's one of the most isolated cities around- Western Australia, of which it be the capital, has less people in it than London, and is the size of Europe (roughly) Come to Perth, and bring the books with you!!!!</HTML>
