EUOL Sightings
« on: June 17, 2005, 02:32:16 AM »
Just a heads up EUOL will be on the Dragon Page radio/Podcast show this saturday.

***********
We're trying something new here. Lots of you have been asking for advanced notification (what, as opposed to prior notification?) of the upcoming interviews we'll be conducting on Cover to Cover. I assume this is so you can get your questions in front of our illustrious guests. Let's test that theory:

Interviews for Saturday, June 18, 2005

10:00 AM PST : Steve Alten - The Loch

11:00 AM PST : Vera Nazarian - The Clock King & The Queen of the Hourglass

11:30 AM PST : Brandon Sanderson - Elantris

You can phone in your questions to our comment line (206-600-GEEK) and we'll play them on the air to the guest during the interview. Or, Skype us at 'dragonpage' during the conversation. Alternately, you can email your questions to Summer if you're old fashioned.
******************

Here's info on how to get the program

http://www.dragonpage.com/tuneIn.html

You can also just download a MP3 of the program, though I'm not sure when they go up on the website.

Who's Summer? And when did email become old fashioned?

So should we be coming up with intelligent questions for this interview? Or should we just leave EUOL to the masses?  ;)

I'm sure it would be a great interview for the to be asking questions by the interviewee's girlfriend.

Well, we wouldn't tell them that. I'd just send in an email or phone in as a fangirl.  :)

More EUOL sightings, as posted by himself on his blog. See, he is doing some marketing. He just doesn't tell us about it.

Oh, and I appreciate the subtle jibe. Now I am officially known as a nag. Thanks sweetie!  ;) Just kidding.

Speaking of booksigning tours, what happened with Dave?

It's coming!  We're planning something major for late summer.  We'll be hitting a lot of cities, then end up at NasFic in Seattle.

I think she was the one with all the boondoggle.

An Elegy for Summer

Your life was brief but crowded
Your accomplishments were varied but forgetable
You perished along with the newness of email
And with the advent of Fall

I should be there on the tour with Dave.

This signing at Borders actually went really well.  Thanks to those of you who stopped by (or, in the case of some, hung out the entire time.)  We sold eight books, gave out some flyers, and got invited back.  Pretty good day, if I do say so myself!

That would be referring to MsFish and me. EUOL is being quite nice in that reference--MsFish and I spent more than half of the time in the Children's/YA section lusting after all the books we wanted to buy (rather than keeping him company, but he was talking to people). There was a sale--"Buy 3 books and get the 4th free"--and a whole bunch of YA books new in paperback that I wanted. I must have picked up at least twenty different books and brought them over to EUOL thinking I was going to buy them (in groups of 2 or 3, not 20 all at once), only to put them all back because I am poor and I can get them at the library. So that was my booksigning experience.

You shouldn't put me in a bookstore. It is like putting an alcoholic in a liquor store. Sometimes, though, libraries are even worse--that is like putting an alcoholic in a liquor store and then telling them it's all free and to go at it.  ;)
