I just cancelled my Amazon order and went to the Dog Eared Books site to get my signed copies! I am about to checkout but first i want to know what exactly a virtual signing is? Will Jim actually be signing my copies? Or is it something else. I guess what I want to know is what the "Virtual" in virtual signing really means.

Usually, book signing involves you standing in line to get a couple seconds face time with the author who then signs it for you in person. Virtual means there's no line, you don't see him... but he does sign it, just for you. |

Thanks for the reply. I wish I could actually meet him, but getting him to sign a copy for me is a close second.

You want to know if you can cancel an order from Amazon? Sure. And since the book hasn't been released yet you won't be charged. Amazon doesn't charge til the book is actually shipped. It is a lot more expensive to buy the signed copy however. But the signed copy of the PF paperback is only $9.99! Or you can just do what i did and spend the extra cash and get both. I think it will be money well spent. |

Why would they send you further communications after a receipt, when the book hasn't even been released yet? That's next Tuesday.

When I purchased my copies for the virtual signing I didn't see a personalization form. I sent an email to the point of contact for Dog Eared Books and we quickly resolved the issue. Kudos to Dog Eared, I was impressed with how quickly they got back to me. I'd imagine since you have not heard anything all should be well.
