Can't - on the other side of the world.

Speaking of that - does anyone know if the book will be released the same time everywhere?

I believe that in order to avoid the rush associated with midnight launches, First Among Sequels will launch at 9:00 a.m. in most shops, perhaps a bit earlier in the 24 hour supermarkets.

Let's start a pity party!

<also begins to sob, as she thinks about how jasper fforde will never come anywhere near where she lives and how she will never put forth enough efort to go anywhere he is.>

What do you drink at pity partys?

Gin.

Or Absinthe, depending on the century and level of pretentiousness. (Must finish that bottle one of these days)

I'm going to the Canterbury Waterstones signing, a few days before. Apparently, that's the official launch date (and the one that's nearest my birthday!)

I've realized I can actually make it to one of the two signings in New York City! Anyone else planning to go there?
