Went to the Barns and Nobles here in GR to get my two copies of the book for her to sign tomorrow. They told me they had been open for 2 hours and had steady sales of the book with people waiting in line to buy it. The lady in front of me bought 12. They are telling people to line up at 0530 in the morning for a 0700 wristband handout and a 1800 signing.
The lady at the bookstore here told me it *might* be a good idea to get to the store by 6 am—the signing is scheduled from 11-2pm!!! Sounds like they are expecting a crowd!!! :-)
I have my copy via Amazon so I will not be eligible for signing as Joseph-Beth is giving out signing tickets based on buy the copy at full price from them. But, no worries. I am fine with that.. I want to be there to welcome her and be part of a big, boisterous, loving crowd so that folks understand this lady is not a joke to us.
And, that is mostly because, we think she gets it and I believe she will do what she can to help us make a change in 2010. If we win in 2010 and stop the insanity, then we will get up, look around and see what needs doing next.
