A good phone call

"Hello - I just wondered if you wanted the new Alasdair Gray signed or unsigned?"

My answer: "Squeeee!"

Even unsigned it looks lovely.

They always do :-)

Another answer: "was that a stupid question?"

[bugshaw.livejournal.com]

I think he just wanted to cheer me up in advance :-)

I has it now in my handzez - it is lovely, and not so much signed as "author has written his name in very carefully".

It is very blue.

Do you know if he's doing a signing? (I want to get my first-ed copy of Lanarck defaced ...)

[aardvark179.livejournal.com]

He did something last week, so you may have missed your chance.

Only to be beaten by the same question after deleting "new" and the last three words . . . as long as he doesn't have cats.
