And of autographing! An overview -- and notice how short most of those lines are considering as you get a free book at the end (generally, short for everyone but TV stars, picture books, and Neil Gaiman or Lemony Snickett) -- closeup of some author I don't recognize, but handily his name is on the free books on the table, so if it means anything to anyone, he's Nelson Demille, and James Patterson, who for some reason doesn't seem to have any Publisher Backup to pass him books.

The opening fifteen minutes, where it looks much more crowded than it is, because no-one's in the hall yet: balloons!, the front hall moments before anyone's let in, and then a few moments after that. Whee!

Also, my computer has been at 0% battery on battery power for an hour now, which is ... rather odd. *sighs at power problems*
