Slowgass is apparently chockers with events so I'm just going to drop by and sign all their copies - apparently they've ordered heaps. Thanks to all the Melbourne readers.
Will now check out the other stores which Snowy suggested.
Apparently some radio and mag interview being booked whilst I'm there too so I shall be kept on my toes.
Will keep you all posted - thanks for being so nice you lot!

Lisa
You want me to get a copy signed for you?
I am sure Fiona would do that for me and I could post it to whereever your little heart desired... even express mail for you.
Cheers
Steve

and we can all do a really sad pout

"> , I will bring the sign saying "wish Lisa was here"..... will that photo make you feel better?
Perhaps everyone that does not live here can send a photo of themselves, we can get the really clever ones in the group to super-impose their images.
Even better, my face on Elle McPherson's body! Which one do you want Lisa?
The feeling around here is infectious

Hmm, just had an interesting convo with a lad about Destiny. He told me that his father has a review copy of Destiny and he offered to send it to me... But you know what? I told him I would wait for a signed copy.

As to what it should say... well... would it be too much to ask for a surprise?
And don't forget your camera!
Yous guys are great.

Brisbane is lovely this time of year (and only a 1 1/2 hr drive for me) why not do one here?? dose double as a lovely holiday sometimes i really wish i still lived in Broken Hill then it would only be a couple of hrs away phooey to be honest i really didn't like it but it would have been convienant but the gold-coast is much nicer

"> hehehe

If anyone wants any of their books signed, don't hesitate to send to me at P O Box 555, Stepney, SA 5069. It would be a huge pleasure.
Or, FW, if you're happy with a bookplate - how about I sign one and send it up to you?
Oh and by the way, three cheers for Lisa for showing magnificent resilience against such heady temptation. Hip-hip....

I will get the book fpr you... what would you like Fiona to say in it?
Also... remind me to bring my Digital camera... also... send me an email with your mail or GPO BOX address so I can post it directly to you.
If we doing the body and face thing... can you put mine on Danny devito's body... he is taller than me ?? Hahahaha
Sorry I find myself amusing... i was going to be a stand up comedian... funny business though that eh?
When I got on stage ... everyone laughed... and I thought there is no way I am going to stand for that... so I left.
So don't panic we will get Fiona to write something good in your book...
Just let me know what you want in it ok?
Take care

Book plates are those good looking, specially printed labels which you can stick into books. You'll see them sold at counters of bookshops usually. Anyway, let me know, if you want one signed and sent.
