First, I would like to invite anyone who has a picture of themselves with an author, or a cast member of the original Star Trek, or whilst standing next to anyone interesting to the geek community, to post that here.

Second, do I look sweaty and nervous in this picture? I was sweaty and nervous.

I know ChaosTitan has some Conner Trinear photos...

We should totally have a thread about this! It is such an important Geek thing to do!

Squee! Neil signed my books a few years ago, but they said no flash photos and the signing was in a dramatically shadowy church.:cry:Lucky you! Is there any way a mere mortal like me could get into BEA when next it passes through LA?

Tonight I will post up piccies of me with Ray Bradbury and me with Kevin J. Anderson.

awww ducky, look at your rosy cheeks. How sweet you look next to Mr. Gaiman. Whose work I have just discovered.

By the way, you still have an awesome book cover and next time I'm in the store I am so getting your book.

edited to add, it's actually in stock in calgary, and on the website you have an average of 5 maple leafs which is the highest rating, from 18 reviews, which for chapters is a lot, so everyone that read your book gave it 5 maple leafs out of five. not shabby at all, mr ducky.

Awww, the baddest ducky is all aquiver. :D Too cool, JM!

Oh yes. That lovely photo of Connor has a special place on my wall (it's also in the AW Family Album in OP). I have a great pic of me, Serenity and my sister with Aaron Douglas (the new Battlestar Galactica).

I don't have any photos with authors, but I've met quite a few. Mostly tie-in authors. I had a minor fan-girl moment the first time I met Peter David. I've adored his work for years and he's quite funny in person.

I have a picture of me and Connie Willis sitting on a panel together. It's a print and I'd have to scan it. Should I? Is Connie geeky enough for you? (she's one of my favorite authors)

...cause sometimes you just need a slap on the hea
Here's the Aaron Douglas one she was talking about. He's such a flirt. Said he took pictures much better with hands on his butt.

I thought I once had a picture of me hugging Neil Gaiman.

My friend bollockes up the photo so badly that I immediately engaged in fisticuffs.

Hopefully I get another shot someday. IIRC he gave a pretty good hug.

Aaron is such a cutie!! So....are you're hands on his butt? He did take a mighty good picture. And you two too! It looks like Chaos might be reaching there...;)

I have one of me hugging Neil G. when he came to Japan a bit ago. Now I need to find it and post it here. I've always wanted to show someone!

Now that is cool.

I need to go and get a picture at August Derleth's gravesite.

Getting one at Lovecraft's grave is next on my list. I'll see if I can get my REH pic scanned.

Every year around the anniversary of his death, the cemetery in Brownwood, TX puts an awning up over the Howard family site and offers water and shade to those who have come to pay their respects. His house in Cross Plains is on the National Register of Historic Places, and next week a small horde of REH fans will descend on the small town for the annual Howard Days festival. I've been a couple of time. It's a very nice little affair.

I'd have to dig, but I had a picture taken with Ray Bradbury in the spring of 2001. It was amazing to meet one of my heroes. He's one of the reasons I was able to motivate myself to graduate from high school, as well as become a writer.

Anyone with $60 can spend a day at BEA.
