I Just Came Back From A Rick Rioardan Book Signing
Rick read a part of the book, than answered some questions. Did you know that he actually didn't see the Lightning Thief movie?!!?
Well, Rick seems like a real nice guy! I got a book signed by him for the second time, and he was real nice to me.
Have you ever gone to a book signing.

Total agreeness.
Rick probably would have been heart-broken. I was sad, I didn't write the book.
@rufflebee: Whoa, that sounds awesome! Who signed what CD?

Cool. I went to the Suzanne Collin's book signing last weekend at an area. I got my copy of The first and third book stamped and I got an entire box set stamped and donated it to my local library ^^

He probably should've seen the movie so he could bash it til they fix it.

You mean the old ladies who write the warrior cat books? I don't see how you can read those, all the names run together, for example treetail, treeclaw, and graytail, and the stories are overdramatic and theres too much things to remember

That's what I thought exactly.
Way too many different cats, and with the size of the RPG's on Scratch, there are even more amateurishly made names to store.
Like half of their brains are dedicated to Warrior's. I need that half.

What about J.R. Tolkein? The Lord of the Rings movie was even better than the book, imo. Even if you don't think it was better, you still have to admit it was epic.
BTW I thought this topic said he came from a Rick Roll book signing xD

No good authors ever come around where I live, except Douglas Wood who makes weird nature poems and stuff.

How? Rick Riaordan could've been signing anywhere.
Yeah but he was somewhere near you.
With my friend google, the date and time (around an hour before your topic post), I can find out anything
