#1 zombiegleemax Sep 15, 2004 19:59:20	I just tried to go to the Margaret Weis book signing here in Salt Lake and it was cancelled. I asked someone there and he said that the rest of the tour was cancelled as well. I've also noticed that the book tour page seems to be gone from the WotC website. Anyone else know anything about this?
#2 zombiegleemax Sep 16, 2004 10:35:07	That is just so sad. Many people were looking forward to that tour. I hope that Margaret is okay.
#3 silvanthalas Sep 17, 2004 10:20:12	The lack of announcement about this leaves me disappointed, because even though I did not go, I had plans ready in case I could manage it last minute. I don't attribute this to anything more than Margaret being worn out from the convention season, but it's frustrating nonetheless.

It bothers the hell out of me when companies just ignore questions like these. DBPro EDIT: Updated info from Margaret on her website.

#6 zombiegleemax Sep 17, 2004 10:55:18	It shounds like they are trying to reschedule, so I may get a Mina mini after all.
#7 zombiegleemax Sep 17, 2004 11:55:50	I hope that she is feeling alright!
#8 silvanthalas Sep 18, 2004 11:41:40	Somebody mentioned that she didn't make the Salt Lake City stop, which would have been the 15th iirc. The night after she was to be in Colorado. So, I have no idea whether she made it here or not. Another thing that irks me - why did you guys at DL3e.com pull the tour info so fast?
#9 zombiegleemax Sep 18, 2004 21:49:07	I can't speak for the DL3e.com staff, but we pulled the tour information at the other sites because the tour was over. Taking it away was a step to avoid confusion. Margaret's next scheduled online appearance is Wednesday, September 22nd at 8:00 PM Eastern Time on the EN World chat rooms (www.enworld.org). Her next public appearance is at the Fields of Honor convention in Des Moines, Iowa. Keep your eyes on MargaretWeis.com for more information. Jamie Chambers Sovereign Press & MargaretWeis.com

Her next public appearance is at the Fields of Honor convention in Des Moines, Iowa. Keep your eyes on MargaretWeis.com for more information. *chuckle* I used to live an hour from Des Moines. Did she ever make this convention before? That would be more of my rotten luck. ;) I know a fellow who went to Fields of Honor a couple of times with his son when I still lived in Iowa. They seemed to enjoy themselves alot. Extra note from me: I was just checking out the Fields of Honor website, and they've got it noted that Margaret is their special guest. Also, toward the bottom, I see that another special guest is Fredd Gorham, a friend and fellow member of UNIT (a Dr Who fan club in Iowa). *sigh* I haven't seen Fredd in years; haven't seen him much on AIM lately either.
#11 zombiegleemax Sep 20, 2004 2:53:06	I so live in Des Moines half the time........I am sooooooooooooo going......do we have any info on when she is going to be there?
#12 zombiegleemax Sep 20, 2004 9:08:47	Fields of Honor is a convention owned and operated by our friend, Darryl Sheldon, of Regal Hobbies. Margaret will be there for the entire convention, with a few scheduled signings during the show -- but also just hanging out and playing games. The Sovereign Press staff (including myself!) will be there as well. We don't attend many smaller, regional conventions during the year but truly enjoy it when we do, because it's a chance to work less and play more. I hope you can make it, Serena! Be sure to say hello. Jamie Chambers Sovereign Press, Inc.
#13 Dragonhelm Sep 20, 2004 9:27:21	I can't speak for the DL3e.com staff, but we pulled the tour information at the other sites because the tour was over. Taking it away was a step to avoid confusion. The Nexus made the announcement after it was announced on MargaretWeis.com and Dragonlance.com. We try to stay pretty current! Her next public appearance is at the Fields of Honor convention in Des Moines, Iowa. Keep your eyes on MargaretWeis.com for more information. Hrm....that's a 4-hour drive down the road for me. I wonder if Mrs. Dragonhelm is up for a trip...
#14 zombiegleemax Sep 20, 2004 10:29:05	Anyone have any idea how much it is for admission for one day...I wont be able to make it in each day of the weekend....and I only see weekend pass prices listed. And you can bet Ill stop and say hi Jamie! You guys are the reason I want to go!
#15 Dragonhelm Sep 20, 2004 11:07:06	Well, it seems the High Goddess has nixed the idea of me going to Des Moines. Something about no money and nothing for her to do save watching the kids while I have fun. She also gets two votes to my one. ;)
#16 zombiegleemax Sep 20, 2004 11:14:23	Oooooooh....that bites DH.....but it is true....High Goddesses do rule over us. My High Goddess wants to go though...so I am just lucky in that respect....sorry man....was lookin forward to meetin ya!

And you can bet Ill stop and say hi Jamie! You guys are the reason I want to go! I know they sell day badges at Fields. I'm guessing $10 for a day, or something close. We're looking forward to meeting you, Serena!

Man, it was going to be beautiful too. *blows nose* Me, you, Margaret, Jamie, Renae, Sean E. all hanging out... But nooooooo! *sniff* *blows nose* *hands kercheif to Serena* *runs away*
#19 zombiegleemax Sep 20, 2004 11:29:55	Are there going to be opportunities to purchase the WAR OF THE LANCE sourebook?
#20 zombiegleemax Sep 20, 2004 11:32:37	Ah, poor Dragonhelm. Maybe you need to hug a teddy bear or even eat a bucket of chicken wingd to help you to go on with life? I could always cast a spell to make you forget about your troubles too!
#21 zombiegleemax Sep 20, 2004 11:40:16	Are there going to be opportunities to purchase the WAR OF THE LANCE sourebook? We have a VERY limited stock left over from the convention season, so whatever we have will go with us down to Des Moines for fans to purchase signed copies of the book. War of the Lance should be out in stores by then, however. Jamie Chambers Sovereign Press, Inc.

I could always cast a spell to make you forget about your troubles too! Thanks, man. *blows nose* Luckily, I live in the Kansas City area, home of the best BBQ there is. Had me some Smokin' Guns today, so I felt much, much better. Let's put it this way - the meat has such flavor, you don't need sauce!
