[ANNOUNCE][F] NYC booksigning and meet. 05 April 2000
Michael Barry
disobey the FAQ.
Terry is signing and reading in Barnes and Nobles, Astor Place on April
5 at 7:30.
Like all B&Ns there is a handy coffee shop which is
1) quite close to the reading/signing area
2) a handy place to buy chocolate to identify yourself
So Meet begins about 7:00ish at B&N coffee shop.
Signing at 7:30 - 8:30
No tickets needed. B&N say signing is limited to only one book per
cutsomer. Presumably the one you buy on the night - this seems a bit
strange to me.
Afterwards depends on numbers and interest, we will probably hang around
the coffeeshop a bit longer. Maybe adjourn to local pub/restaurant [1].
try www.bn.com and search for stores using zip 10007 for
directions/subway etc.
I'll be recognisible because I will
A) have chocolate
B) have Pterry books
C) be wearing an anorankh
D) have my Claremont Death figurene. He doesn't get out much.

[1] Don't know how many people are interested in going out afterwards so
I haven't booked anywhere [2]. If you call into B&N after 8:30 an nobody
is left then we are all gone.
[2] The baggot in was proposed in the original announce. So maybe we'll
be there.

Please, people, remember the [ANNOUNCE] tag is only used on moderated
announcements that go out via alt.fan.pratchett.announce
Fan announcements such as this are one of the things that afpa is for.
If you send the announcement to afpa...@lspace.org it will be posted
on afpa, afp, abp and the afpa mailing list. A much wider audience
for any announcements.

But heaven forfend that people should actually be able to read and
*understand* the FAQs.. I mean.. they use words of more than one syllable
in places..
Furrfu!

who is merely trying to educate.. education is *good*.. people who are
capable of education are *good* too.. people who *seek* education are
better!)

If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried..

from some wannabe on-line police.
I'm a long time Prachett fan, but new to these groups.
The NYC signing wasn't on the announce newsgroup, and it was just what I was
seeking.
See you there.
BTW, I posted this - I wrote the CD Rom game that in one line, mentions
Pratchett. Fun, eh?
