Lou,

You need to come to the South (Atlanta). We are known for our southern hospitality.

Let us know, even if it's some where close

OK everyone... I'm off to my first in-store signing! Just walking out the door, so wish me luck!!! (or I'll see you there!)

**Stitch** · 01-18-2005, 07:21 PM

Good luck, sorry I'm not going to be able to make it. We want a FULL report!

olmec26 · 01-18-2005, 09:49 PM

Good luck, Lou! It's probably over by now, but hey, it's all in the spirit!

How did the book signing go Lou? It was a little too far for me to drive...hope you had a good turnout! It's a great book!

**Lou Mongello** · 01-19-2005, 04:18 PM

The signing went great! Thanks for all the good wishes!

Having never done and in-store, I had no idea what to expect. It went better than I imagined! I had about 30 people show up! They had me up on a little stage with tons of copies of my book, refreshments, posters, etc. After a little intro by me, I did some trivia questions and it quickly became a very interactive discussion, which was lots of fun. We even gained a few new members out of it!

The Cheesecake Factory even donated a 5 pound (yes, 5 lb.) cheesecake to the winner of an extremely difficult triia question at the end of the discussion. Steve and Dave, two of the audience members who recently spent 35 days straight at WDW (really!) knew their stuff and answered the question.

I have another one coming up in Holmdel, NJ on Feb. 23rd, and I'm trying to book more in the future! Hope to see some DWT members there!

Congratulations, Lou! Sounds like a great success!

How do you go about booking these? Do you have to contact the store, or is it through your publisher?
