Adam, you think you’re pissed? I was planning on you becoming my patron, if the Oprah thing doesn’t work out. (Oprah: Call me back, okay? Don’t let the restraining order keep us apart.)

But bummer you won’t be at Denvention, dude. I wanted to buy you a beer.

And Paul — I feel like the pub date is Christmas, but with reviewers. (“I’m sorry, I don’t think this gift is working. It wrapped well, and the battery installation went off without a hitch, but it just doesn’t deliver on the holiday joy. I’m returning mine for a gift card from Hollister.”)

Damn, now I’m doubly pissed I’m not independently wealthy. First I have to skip Denvention, and now I can’t take my Learjet to State College. And not being able to ship wine to Pennsylvania is just an extra insult.

I guess it only feels like it is never coming out.

Oh yeah, Sept 7th. If only I could read.

I can do it if the signing isn’t for 37 days. Of course, if the book fails to come out, I’ll just have to sign people’s foreheads.

The book in the picture hasn’t been photoshopped in — it’s an Advance Reader Copy with marketing info on the back instead of whatever will be there when it comes out for real. Usually ARCs are just plain fronts, but Del Rey opted for a full-color printing, which is very cool.

How can you have a book signing if the book doesn’t come out for another 26 days?

Though I did notice that in your ReaderCon pic, you are holding what appears to be a copy of the book. I just assumed that it was photo shopped in…
