I don't blame you for being nervous Mwamba. It is Jonathan Stroud you are meeting!
Take a photo with him too if possible.

So it's settled. I'm definitely going to get sigs for you all. I was hoping Fuzzy would respond, since I expected she would be the most difficult to mail. But I'm sure it will all work out. :)

Wow, I feel jealous, Mwamba. :P
*sigh* I wish Jonathan Stroud would come to Spain... But that will never happen.

I will become PM of India and invite JS to my country.
Or rather, go to UK for a tour and request demand an audience.

Ah, wanting to become the leader of a country for strange reasons, so awesome. On a related note: Can PM's banish people anymore? Or is that considered "wrong" or something? :D

Honestly, I've never seen why signatures from famous people are such a big deal. But if you want to, go ahead, it'd be kind of cool. Don't feel any pressure to stay to get them if the security guards start taking an interest in you, though. :P (I don't think they will, but isn't the US uber-paranoid now or something or something? Canada obviously isn't, see the story about the kid with the old man mask in Weird news XD)

By the way, the Epic Roadtrip of Epicness is totally happening one day, even if we don't go and see Stroud.

SOLOMON COMES OUT TOMORROW! So I should have it done in about a month.

Dunno if I'll get the time to buy it. I'm not worried. The series isn't exactly...well known, to be sold in in a quick amount of time.

So I'd like to say, Jonathan Stroud is amazingly nice and awesome. We had a nice discussion of Bartiforums while he signed Ring of Solomon, Heroes of the Valley, my t-shirt, and the four post cards for me. ^-^ They were also handing out free bookmarks which I and the Canuks will have. So yays.

Let's see...he remembered Epic_footstool and Sentynel/Sam when acknowledging forumers. Upon the post card signings he mentioned he would have liked to go to Canada but something about being tied up by publishers. And we also talked about White Panda's Ptolemy's Gate video which he loved incredibly.

So yays. Perfection.

And yes, I made sure to get extras of those those things to put in your postcards Canuks. So yeah. I'll start mailing when I get an address to send to. Woo.
And I'm pretty sure my aunt took a pic of Stroud or something on her phone. I'll have to ask her about it tomorrow.

Yeah, I figured out that the best way to meet my favourite authors (mainly JS =D), favourite sportspersons, academicians, entertainers etc. would be possible only if I become PM :P . And no, I don't think Prime Ministers can banish people anymore. It sounds so stupid.
I don't know, I would love to meet and get autographs and photographs (though not as much as meeting them) of people I greatly admire. They are inspiring and are usually very wonderful and wise.

Meaning people he met from the forum? Nataniel has seen him too but it has been a long time and anyway, he disappeared now. And he knows Pete though he hasn't met him. Yay, the list is growing!
Oh, it would be wonderful if he went to Canada! But he should go to only one stop there so that the Canadians are forced to meet up =p.
And his love for White Panda's video makes me want to make one.

Pics relating to those are awesome. Thanks for putting them up.
