I had managed to get a couple of hours off work today to go to the Neil Gaiman booksigning.
However, yesterday when I walked past the bookstore the poster announcing the signing and saying that no registration was required wasn't in the window anymore. So I googled and found that the bookstore was surprised by the interest, normally 20-100 fans come to a signing, now more than 300 "threatened" to show up, so they changed it to registration required and, of course, they're booked full.
Shouldn't a bookstore know how popular an author is? To make it up they will soon have a competition on their website where you can win a signed copy of one of Gaiman's works....
