So, for all you aspiring writers, and all the mid-list writers like myself here is a cautionary tale. George R.R. had this up on his Not a Blog, and it was just too good not to share.
I can do one better than Mr. Hall. My very first autographing was at an Archon. I didn't even have a book out. I had a cover flat of my Star Trek novel THE TEARS OF THE SINGERS. The committee insisted I needed to sign because people would want me to sign their program books.
I was seated next to Stephen King.

Further proof that the best promotion is to write another book.

Did my first signing (first book, too) next to Gene Wolfe. He had a line out the building and down the street. I had 4 people. 2 of them were blood relatives.
