I got the new Stephen King book, Revival, and a ticket to his book signing next Monday at Books A Million in Portland, Maine. They only gave out 400, I believe. We got to the store at around 6:30am and there were already about 150 people there. Some people slept overnight. Normally, I'm not the type to sit in the cold like an idiot, but it was fun. I saw the sun rise, which is very rare. Well, it's not rare for the sun to rise, but it's rare that I see it. Below is the list of rules for the book signing.
Kind of blurry, I know. And that is not a stain on the photo - my camera lens does that. But the list says that there are no selfies, and non-flash photos can be taken from a designated area. They take us inside in groups every 15 minutes. Stephen King will not do a speech, will only sign Revival, and will not personalize the book. It's like a military operation. Actually, it's like getting soup from the Soup Nazi. But I imagine that Stephen King gets sick of everyone yakking his ear off, and he must have some really weird fans. So it's understandable, and I'm looking forward to getting my book signed.
