(Oot had trouble deciding, so he picked two.)

The boys think it’s the funniest thing ever, and wanted to show off their favorite Bast pictures: In fact, I’m guessing a few of you have already gotten yours in the mail if you pre-ordered them from Worldbuilders, or got them in one of the bundles. Which brings me to my next piece of good news. They sent me a picture of displaying not just the new book, but the sexy Bast calendar, too… They have some of my books as well…Īaand since I’m splashing around local bookstore love, I’d be remiss if I didn’t give a shout to A Room of One’s Own down in Madison. But picture or no, I’d feel bad not giving them a mention too. Unfortunately, the boys and I were a little rushed, so I didn’t have time to take pictures of the other, even newer, bookstore: Sojourn Booksellers. I had no idea that was happening, and it made me look *very* cool in front of my kids. Unknown to me, they’d collaborated with Worldbuilders Market to have some a whole shelf of Kingkiller-related stuff for people who might be showing up for the new book. Not only did the store have a Draccus pushie on the front counter and the promotional postcards to give away, they had this: I stopped by to enjoy the book birthday with my boys. The fact that they survived their first couple years AND covid warms my bitter old heart. A couple years back, some amazing local folk opened Bound to Happen books. …Fast forward to my delight at being proven wrong. It was deeply depressing, as I knew deep in my heart that this town would never have another unless I personally intervened in some way to make it happen…. Point’s last bookstore closed *years* ago. Oh! Speaking of which, let’s take a moment to enjoy some good news in a world that’s… well… let’s just say not as good as I think it should be.Īfter years of being bookstore-less, Stevens Point (the town where I live) has not just one, but TWO local bookstores. (I *really* should have straightened out those books before taking this picture. I even took a brief field trip with my kiddos to the local bookstore. I fit it what promotion I could while helping the boys with their homework and otherwise dadding it up. Not unpleasant, just not as eventful as if I met up with 500-600 of you in Seattle… So when my book came out and it felt a little… different. But the one part I never got tired of was meeting you guys…īut various things made a tour impractical for me this time around. And while I don’t miss the thought of spending my time in airports and hotel rooms… I do miss the thought of getting to meet a lot of you. For my last two books, I did signing tours.

As I sit down to write this, the new book has been out for a full day and some change.
