It hasn't been long since I first saw my books in bookstores, which was all thanks to you and your support for the Cradle Kickstarter last year.
But because I haven't been in bookstores, and because the touch of your dread sun drains me of my powers, I've never done a live book-signing event before. That's about to change. Soon, I will drag myself from the tunnels beneath my Writing Prison and make my way to Barnes & Noble for an official signing! I'll be in the Altamonte Mall Barnes & Noble in Altamonte Springs, FL, on Friday, August 4th (that's next Friday!), from 6-8 PM Eastern. It's not a reading, so I won't be reading anything but your minds. It'll just be a chance for me to sit behind a desk and pretend not to be terrified as I sign the books you've purchased from our lovely local Barnes & Noble. For more information, click this! I think I'm also supposed to be answering some questions, so please remember that it's difficult for me to compress my vast cosmic knowledge into your limited human language. Those with the misfortune to encounter me in person have described the experience as "weird," "off-putting," and "the first time I've ever seen a grown man curl up like an armadillo and roll away." This is the point where I'm supposed to say "I hope to see all of you there!", but there are too many of you. I hope to see a manageable percentage of you there! Maybe if this goes well, I'll do more signings elsewhere, like inside a lucid dream or that old shed behind your dad's house. -Will P.S. I have been engineering The Engineer. More information will be forthcoming pending approval from the O5 Council.

Agreed. Southern midwest would be perfect.

You know, that curl up like an armadillo and roll away sounds like fun. You should lead with that. Can you plan that as a party trick at DragonCon?

If we leave a trail of Oreos out to our car where we can safely remove you to a forest of your preference (with good wifi, of course) and thus live out your days as a wild book-writing hermit, would that help some of the stress?

For anyone who can say "the first time I've ever seen a grown man curl up like an armadillo and roll away.", you have lived sheltered lives. I see grown men curl up and roll away on a daily basis.

In that case I'll let my dad know to clean up the shed a little. Thanks for the heads up.

Floridians eating well this, between this and Sanderson at Tampa Bay Comic Con. Meanwhile I am... enjoying... a wave of hot & humid Florida weather in Chicago, with none of the nerdy benefits!

Do you plan on traveling? Would love to see you in California!

If you don’t come to North Carolina or Virginia, I will haunt you everywhere you go, even that forest they are taking you to. Of course I’m going to do that anyways.;)

"A man in Florida curls up like an armadillo and rolls away from a Barnes and Noble. Onlookers leave Oreos on the ground for him." Classic Florida.

Any plans to come back to DragonCon this year? Please say yes!!! Thoroughly enjoyed your event last year - you are the best.

Come to Huntsville Alabama I doubt there are enough of us to overwhelm, but there are a few of us spreading the words of Wight, and it would be super cool to meet the guy who’s books I’ve been reading over and over again for A decade

This is exciting! I'm sure it's wildly uncomfortable, but I'm happy it's happening for you! You've done great work. You deserve it.

Never been to a book signing, being a librarian that sounds weird, come to central NJ and I’ll go to yours …. dare you!

Exciting, hope you and the local fans enjoy! Use it as an excuse to travel and come and sign some books here in Wales, UK too and I'll be there.

If you come to any store in the tidewater region, you bet I'd be there!!

Bit too far for me. You should do one in Seattle. Do a tour like sanderson, with readings from works in progress please please please.

I will be at the Port Orleans resort that day. Can anyone give me a ride to the signing and back? I would love to hang out with some fans, meet Will, and get a book signed.

If you could pop up to Vancouver Canada real quick that would be GREAT my dog ate my signed copy of Blackflame this morning (instead of any one of the hundreds of other not super special signed books I have) and Florida is farrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Canada is nice I swear! Come see!

Any chance you're making your way to NJ for a signing? It's so awesome here, I know you can't resist visiting. Just don't sign in places like Atlantic City or Trenton. They're not cool anymore.

I am a new fan, I only found out about Cradle from a buddy 3 weeks ago and I am about to finish Reaper. I have a library and I collect hardbacks of my favorite series (in multiple printings if available), but I know you only released hardback for 1-3. Is there going to be another Kickstarter or way to get the special edition hardbacks/printings? I heard there may be 3 more special editions in the works?

Sure! Just one thing, kinds of bribes and what exactly would we be bribing you for?

Please come up to the North East! VT is a barren wasteland devoid of people and therefore not ideal for a visit but I’d drive to civilization in MA or NY to meet you.

NOOOO! I can't believe I missed this. I live in Central Florida. Please do more signings!

Any Oreo trail that leads to hidden knowledge of next kickstarter or if you’ve chosen the 3 follow ups to cradle? Looking forward to next books and hoping you advance to sage soon and open up portal to U.K.

Many trails have been left, but with so many followers of the Twin Wight Sect around, all the Oreos have been doubly stuffed into their Cores awaiting the reemergence of their Sage from new found depths of the Labyrinth
