Okay, so just so I can plan the right amount of sugary yummies, exactly who is coming and who isn't?  (miyabi, chaos, and little_wilson, I know you're coming so don't worry about saying so.)
"The custom of royalty in referring to oneself is to naturally employ the royal 'we'.  We are very happy, we are very sad, we are bored and suffer from ennui.  For a royal prince there's no such word as 'me', It's always 'we'.  So rightfully I should be two or three, don't you agree?"

I'm also a maybe. Like I said, the evil homework monster is my master. If he says I can go, I'll be there.

Yeah, I'll have an update around Fridayish as well.  To be honest, I really don't want to make the drive from here to Provo by myself, especially since my car is '97, and though I believe it would make it...it may try to murder me when I'm through.

I'll be there with Karen and Elizabeth.

I'll be there, maybe by myself, maybe with a friend.
I came because I heard stories, tales of a lengendary man.
A man who was known as the Lord of the Mists, a man they named Survivor.
A man called Hope.

Well, it seems to look like I'm no longer going to be able to make this. :(  All of my friends have other things that they have to do, and well, I'm not 100% comfortable driving down by myself with my 97 sentra...

If anyone else lives in Nevada, and is interested in carpooling, shoot me a PM.  But as it stands now, it looks like I'm going to my local Barnes and Noble and picking it up Tuesday. 

Hey, at least I have Tuesday and Wednesday off to read the final revision through.  ;D

I also cannot come. I decided that $100 in gas to drive from Portland to Provo--one way--was too expensive. Alas.

You could fly down to Salt Lake City and have someone pick you up from the airport and drive the 45 mins to Provo for not much more than that.

I also will not be there. It's probably for the best. Skipping the first day of class wouldn't have been the smartest thing I've ever done even if meeting all of you cool people would've made up for the skipping...kind of... ::)

It's rainy in Provo today, with rain forecast for tomorrow. Hope you campers bring a tent. ;D

So since I can't go to the release party, I checked at the bookstore here at BYU-I, to see if they would be getting the book in sometime this week. They checked and yes, they are ordering it. One copy....I was rather surprised. Only one? Really?...Oh well. I gave them my name, and so now I've got a hold on it. Go me. Now I can help those release week sales at least a bit...and then get the personalization when he tours later in the year (and hopefully hear an excerpt of Way of Kings).

Anyway, have fun you release party people! I hope it's a blast. I also hope it doesn't rain on you. That wouldn't be very cool. Rain is cool, but raining on you...not so much.

It looks like I will be able to make the release party tonight. Should get there around 7:00.

Ookla, do you think Brandon will read anything from Way of Kings? That would be AWESOME!
