A Note From Terry

Hi Everyone,

Just a quick letter to tell you about last weekend in Atlanta at
DragonCon and the Decatur Book Festival.

Arrived with Judine on Friday night, Labor Day weekend, to find
lodging at one the DragonCon hotels. Spent most of the weekend
trying to get on an elevator to our room, but other than that things
were pretty much okay. Attended the opening ceremonies that night,
where David Weber, Bill Fawcett and I put our formidable talents to
use in competition with some pros on answering DragonCon questions.
We won, but the fix was in.

Saturday, Judine and I attended the Decatur Book Festival for a
speech and a book signing. It was great fun with a church full of
people who seemed interested enough to stay to the end. Hard to
figure. Everyone was very nice and enthused about the new book and
the series in general. I promised I would come back soon.

Saturday night was the obligatory banquet with awards given for
different things, most of which I have lost track of. But we visited
with other writers and some actors and had a good meal and conversation.

Sunday was a work day at DragonCon with panels, readings,
autographings and a speech beginning at 10 am and not ending until
close to midnight. All were well attended, even the 10 pm panel,
which I would not have gone to if I hadn't been on the panel. Met
lots of people, some of whom asked about your faithful Web Druid and
his book. Okay, many asked. All in all, it was a joy to be there.

Thanks to Bill Fawcett and Chairman Pat and all the rest of the
DragonCon staff and the staff of the Decatur Book Festival who made
the experience so enjoyable.

We are off to England for the continuance of the book tour later this
week. More when we return. Best to you all, Terry.

Dragon Con Pictures

This last weekend was Dragon Con, one of the largest fantasy and science fiction conventions in the world. Terry attended the massive gathering in Atlanta, Georgia, where many fans came out to celebrate the release of The Elves of Cintra and to see Terry himself.

Terry autographed and read from Book Three in the Genesis of Shannara trilogy, as well as took part in several panels about the craft of writing and the fantasy genre.

Below are the first of what will assuredly be many pictures from this event. Enjoy!

Seattle Tour Pictures

As happens every year around this time, Terry was a part of two events here in Seattle celebrating the release of his newest book, The Elves of Cintra. Both events had dozens and dozens of fans attending them, and they were able to listen to Terry read from the untitled Book Three in the Genesis of Shannara trilogy as well as answer questions from the audience.

Here are some pictures from those two events:









Pictures from these events—as well as the events forthcoming—will be posted on the website. If you attend one of these events and you want your picture posted, send the pictures to shawn @ signedpage dot com.
