And from a party about Irish cheese to an event in Ireland. Here are a few photos that I took during the signing at Chapters. There are no photos of the actual readings, because I was busy holding the video camera at the time. That’s still waiting to be edited.

(And annoyingly the photos are not displaying in the correct sequence. Sigh.)

Return to album listNeil Gaiman & Amanda Palmer in Dublin

The lines of people wanting books signed	Went on	And on
All around	The whole of the back	Of the store
Every one of them was made to feel welcome and special	There were some good bargains to be had, especially in the wonderful Gollancz Fantasy Masterworks series	And an excellent graphic novel section
Chapters has an excellent science fiction section (this is less than half of it)	Guess which graphic novel is currently big news	But it was another British author whose books got piled by the tills – Sir Terry is as popular as ever
The Coraline poster provided good decoration	As did more piles of Neil’s book (spot the kamikaze buttons)	Neil’s books were piled high at the entrance
Including plenty of Sandman material	Whether they were living or dead	Backstage, the staff had made every effort to make the stars welcome
At around 10:00pm the customers have gone and the staff are happy and triumphant. The stars are just exhausted.
