Just a quick one to say thanks to everyone who came along to
the signings at Liverpool and Leeds over the weekend. It was a great day out
for me, and the traveling was made well worth it by the sheer enthusiasm and
good humour of the folks who came out to play. Indeed, both signings were so
busy that I almost missed my train from Liverpool to Leeds (I made it with a
minute to spare) and then almost missed my train back to Nottingham at the end
of the day (thirty seconds to spare).
Great to see some familiar faces (Dan and Simon, you know
who you are) and nice to meet lots of new ones (Boo, Kash, Chipmunk…I kid you
not). As I sat signing in Leeds, I looked up and had to smile as I saw that
people were, literally, queuing out the door with their copies of A Thousand
Sons, with lots of passers by looking bemusedly on. No doubt wondering what all
the fuss was about. In Liverpool I signed an inordinate amount of books for
people called Paul, which struck me as odd, until I realised where I was…
Anyway, if you couldn’t be at Liverpool or Leeds, I’ll be at
Games Workshop Cardiff (31 High Street, Cardiff, Glamorgan, CF10 1PU) on the
6th of March, between 12 and 2pm. See you there!
Also, for your Monday morning pleasure, here’s a clip someone called Therodenne
has posted on Youtube. A fan by the name of
Jake Bishop sent it to me, it’s the first part of my short story Chains
of Command as enacted by footage from Dawn
of War. When Part II becomes available, I’ll let you know. Just to warn you, it’s
in French, but has subtitles. Enjoy.
Right, off to get God King started.
