No. I did just check them out and there are some great deals on some HCs. There are several listed there I've wanted to read.

Not sure if any of you shop with Book Outlet, but they are having a pretty good sale until December 2nd. Was able to snag 6 hardcovers that I've had my eye on over the last year for under 40 bucks all in including tax & shipping!

Well, that's a bummer but I'm sure the book will be fine. Just saw that Earthling will be doing the limited which is pretty exciting!

Yes, gotta admit, had I seen that Earthling notice before buying the trade from PP early last week, I likely would’ve skipped the signed trade. But I was a couple days too early. Oh well, I certainly want support PP so it’ll stick around, so the $$ went to a good cause.

I was certainly going to go see the Fracassi event, but got called out of town so will have to miss it. I do have a copy bought there that I asked to have Philip inscribe…we’ll see if my request works or if it’ll just be a signed copy. Either way is fine…just looking forward to reading it.

Went to see Rich & Billy Chizmar at the Poisoned Pen bookstore last Friday night for a Widow's Point speaking & signing event. It was a blast, and it was especially neat to see both generations of authors and their excitement for this collaboration. I even dorked out and wore my Memorials t-shirt to the event! A good time for sure!

Am now debating going to see Phillip Fracassi again at the same venue this Thursday evening. Hopefully, I won't be too tired from work!

It is pretty awesome that we can stay on this little forum and not require moderation. The limited places I frequent on the internet require constant moderation.

I think people have completely forgotten how to be adults and handle conflicting opinions.

Everyone here should give themselves a pat on the back. We are a dwindling breed.

Yes, it's definitely a peaceful little corner of the Internet.

Brian McAuley & Darcy Coates will be doing an event at the Poisoned Pen Bookstore this Wednesday 09/03 at 7pm. Just thought I would mention it here since CD has recently reviewed McAuley's new book "Breathe In, Bleed Out" in their free-reads section as well as posting an author interview. Looks like the book has been getting some pretty good reviews. May try to sneak over to this event after work that day!

I saw that John Scalzi was recently (?) added to the Events calendar as well...PP is on quite the signing tear for the next couple months.
