CosmicAvatar Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 (edited) I get another crack at Ben Aaronovitch? Yay! Er, is my Gold Pass sufficient for this, or do I need to buy a YALC pass on top? Ah, scratch the last bit - I've just worked out that I can after 11am by the looks of it... Edited April 29, 2015 by CosmicAvatar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knitty Fred Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 (edited) I'm pretty sure I've seen it raised elsewhere but are we able to get autographs from YALC guests on non-YALC items as, for example, someone mentioned Arabella Weir being in Dr Who in another thread so she could sign a Dr Who DVD? Also an excellent line up in terms of guests - I certainly don't remember there being anywhere near as many last year so well worth the ticket.

Glowingwings Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 I'm so glad I chose 'The Bane Chronicles' to give to my friend for her birthday, she already has the Mortal Instrument series and loves them but she doesn't have the Bane Chronicles.

I believe if you get one of their books signed some may be willing to also sign another item but it's very much up to the author in question.

Glowingwings Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 I was wondering how you guys are going to bring all your books to be signed. I'm worried about messing the books up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogsoldierspoon Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 I was wondering how you guys are going to bring all your books to be signed. I'm worried about messing the books up. Last year I brought them in a suitcase. Not the most handy, but it did the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen_Sindel Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Any idea when it will be announced when the authors will appear? Would love to meet Joe Abercrombie A lot closer to the show. The timetable usually is up around the same time the photoschedule goes up. 10 days out maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
