Pay no attention to those coworkers who don’t understand the draw of a book signing and author talk!

Sounds (and looks! Great pics!) like you had a fantastic evening. SHADES OF GREY has an interesting premise.

Can you say JEALOUS???????????? What a fabulous event. Lucky, lucky you. And I love the idea of writing himself out of a hole. Wow!

Must read this one soonest.

Don’t worry about others not understanding…we do. I love the idea that he writes to create worlds for answers to strange questions. He is just too fun as an author, and I love his books.

You’re so right … the poor misguided souls simply do NOT understand.

Sounds like it was a good night! Thanks for sharing with those of us who “get it!”

Well, too be honest he could have been exaggerating a tad to make a point, I’ve not counted them myself!

I posted my own “Meeting Jasper Fforde” post this week minus the photographs and video! He wore exactly the same outfit at the one I attended .

It was fascinating and such a fun evening; I’m glad you managed to make it to your local appearance.

1. I’m so glad i checked Shades of Grey out of the library. I’m looking forward to diving in in the next few weeks.

2. How awesome t hat you got to hear him speak! I love the stuff you learned about his writing.

3. The Fourth Bear is 100,000 words??? I have it on my shelf and it doesn’t look nearly big enough to be that many!
