I know, I know. It's bizarre, the things we get lazy about, ain't it?
When you have to sign a whole lot of something, you start thinking about ways to make it easier.

Years back, the late Ray Bradbury was a guest at a West Coast SF convention, and did a signing. A fan approached with a paperback copy of every book Ray had written to get signed. Undaunted, Ray arranged the books standing up spine side out in a row on the table, whipped a magic marker from a pocket, and signed his name in flowing script across the top of the row. I was tickled when I heard about it.
