Interview #565: TOM Signing Report - Hanover, MD Tower Guards, Entry #8
Cassy
The book signing was so much fun! My role was basically helping out with the fans, talking to everyone, and handing out numbers and stickers (red for -No Spoilers!- and green for -Spoiler Alert!-) so people would know who had finished Towers of Midnight and who you had to watch what you say around. It was amazing seeing everyone there, hanging out and talking about Wheel of Time. Thanks to Brandon Sanderson’s Alcatraz series , there were some kids who came out to see him. Brandon and Harriet were running late due to plane issues, but they were all smiles when they arrived. Both of them made sure to give each and every fan their attention, thanking them for waiting, asking if anyone had questions and signing many, many books. And in the end, even after spending the day on a plane and signing books until 11:00pm, they made sure to spend a little bit of time with the Tower Guard. Harriet told me a story about Robert Jordan and even howled with “Perrin”—a fan who stayed around until the very end. All in all, this experience was so much fun, and being a bigger part of this event meant so much to me. I’ve made some great friends, saw some people from last year, and was able to talk to people who are as big a fan of Robert Jordan’s work as I am.
