In print with my first signing. - thelionwaits - 04-19-2012
It's been a very long while since I posted in the forums. A few years, in fact. I've been a bit focused with work and...well...work
I finally made it into print with, "The Mythidria Chronicles: Rise of the Nightmare." I'm still having difficulties with the E-Book, but the print version is where it needs to be and has the story as streamlined as possible. It's available at Amazon and Barnes and Noble, plus (recently) made it into an international online retailer. Yeah it's a pretty exciting time.
I have my first book signing coming up on the 5th of May, and that's pretty exciting, too. I'm pretty limited in how many copies I can bring with me (Not made of the green, here) so I'm going with what I can.
Is there any advice for book signings outside of being polite, entertaining, avoid griping, etc? I really don't want to bollocks this up as this could mean some decent sales and an image I'd like to earn for myself.
Also, I'm posting the Amazon link here. The galaxy cover is one I'm really proud of, the publisher, Createspace, has some great selections.

Congrats, thelionwaits! Hope your book is a big success. In my days at Barnes and Noble, I saw big mucho plenty book signings. A line that always worked was, "Buy three copies, or I'll feed your babies to my hungry cats."

Glad to see you are alive and well, Bluesman

Thank you, Keith. Aside from being fired from my job of 27 years for NOTHING, being hospitalized for suicidal depression, being in a law suit with a billion-dollar corporation, and having my foster-sister Dolores die last week, life just could not be better.
So how's by you, my brother?

Awww Blues....I'm sorry.

Thank you, cobalt. These days, when I wake up, I go to the fridge for a beer (not smart, I know), pick up my guitar (signed by Pete Townshend!), and play and sing the blues until my next door neighbor pounds on the wall and yells, "Will you shut up, or should I call the cops?"
