I got tired of signing my long name years ago. Carpal Tunnel hastened my decision. Since a legal signature is whatever you make it at your bank, I went down to my three initials which flow easily together. So I’m all set. :)

Forever, the “hf” digraph, in “Rothfuss” and elsewhere, will remind me of a hermaphrodite getting freaky with a ferret(Frenchman?), and the ferret/Frenchman may not be entirely cool with it.

Oh drat, the URL’s too long. Anyway, it’s a Margaret Atwood invention; you can google it.

Have you ever seen Steven Brust’s signature? How about Charles DeLint’s? I’m sure you’ll fit right in. I just picked up my copy of your book at Uncle Hugo’s yesterday, right before I had the pleasure of having Kim Harrison sign some books for me. I’m home sick today and taking advantage of the fact to get as many pages read as my congested head will allow. Looking forward to having you write in my copy later this month.

Signatures don’t get more elegant with practice, they just get more and more abstract. That’s why doctors’ signatures are nearly always wavy lines that bear only a tenuous relationship to actual script. Readers who buy this first batch of your signed books will probably possess the most legible version of your signature that the public will ever see.So, are you going to have a signing tour? I couldn’t find anything about a tour schedule on the web site.

Okay, he doesn’t -technically- know me. Just through association. I’m a friend of a good friend of his :D And a fan.And I plan on getting other people hooked on Pat. It’s part of the evil plan to have Pat take over the world. Shhh, don’t tell anyone – it’s a secret. :D

Well, that’s two calls for a visit to Maine. Though I didn’t know you knew anyone else out here… I honestly don’t remember practicing a signature much though… guess my youth was rather misspent as well… still, not much call for autographs among engineers…

p.s. I am also with Steve and Chad, get your butt to New England….specifically Maine for a signing. I will shamelessly promote your book in the meantime.

Hey Pat,So here I was thinking I was going to have to wait to read your book until:A. I sent Andy some money and he got me a spiffy signed copy (I still want one, just to let you know! But I MUST READ YOUR BOOK!!!)B. Had to order a copy and wait forever for it to come in...But imagine my surprise when I just checked my local Border's all the way here in Maine to find out your book is in stock!!! I reserved it and most certainly will be picking it up tonight. I can't wait to read it. Congratz!I'm so happy I could pee!
