In the Q&A portion, somebody asked why there weren't any Chapter 13s in his books. He said that it wasn't out of superstition, he just thought it would be fun and he could use it as literary alley ways for him to exploit when he pleases. He also explained his interest in Nursery Crimes. What wit!?! I can't help but agree that most Nursery stories are indeed Nursery crimes so he decided to write books about them. Just how did Humpty Dumpty fall? Nobody ever bothers to ask why... (The Big Over Easy) Why did Daddy and Mommy bear sleep in separate beds? There must have been a fourth bear involved. (The Fourth Bear). What on earth is going through his mind??? haha!
Some of my hardback books already had his signature on them and when I requested him to dedicate it to me. He was amazed that I had those!!! So he signed them again with dates so my books now have two signatures from him. There was even one where his signature was in all caps which he says he never does anymore so that copy should be really rare. He stamped the books with this quirky "Eat more toast", "Nursery Crime Division Evidence" etc... and gave me limited edition post cards.
I'm glad I went! I would have missed SO much if I hadn't!!! That was my very first time to go to a book signing!!! If what I posted all sound so foreign/alien, read the series!!! Be prepared to be taken away... I'm starting The Big Over Easy tonight!!!
