A nice shot from the Harrisonburg (VA) signing... Wow, so serious, Gilman. You were afraid you were going to forget how to spell your name again, weren't you?

So glad I'm not the only author with that fear :-)

I'm not an author, but I signed so many DVDs (http://shop.browncoatsmovie.com/browncoatsmovie-dvd-order.aspx) at Dragon*Con that my signature changed. At one point, I actually paused mid-signature. I wasn't sure what name I was in the process of writing, but it sure didn't look like mine!

I've actually DONE it, although admittedly when I was doing the MonoSignature, which is trickier.

You know, that coffee cup doesn't look like a Venti.

I'm a straightforward tall black, 2 sugars kinda girl.

"Hi, could you please autograph this as Suricattus?"

Bad thing to do? Good thing to do? Don't mess with the author when she's in a signing groove?

Are you carrying coffee or (good) alcohol?

For that, I would either stalk previous entries and maybe ask friends find out her taste in wine beforehand, or ask what she wanted and try to come back with it. That applies for any author I would ask for a nonstandard signature.

Now I don't feel so bad about totally blanking out on my phone number.
