SCHEDULE - Updated 11/30/11

A NOTE FROM TAMORA PIERCE (10/22/11): For those who will be coming to my appearances, there's something new this year.  I'm having Fun With Wrists, also known as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.  It's gotten bad enough after 20 years that I'll have surgery in late December and early January (no big deal, two days and I can use my hands again), but in the meantime, it's going to change my book signing policy for the first time in years.

I can't personalize four books per person and straight sign the rest as I have in years past.  I just can't.  What I will do is personalize one book per person--including books you bring for friends (no penalty for doing a good deed!).  Then, instead of straight signing everything else, what I will do is stamp my name and add my thumbprint.  Think about it--since this is going to be a limited run solution, there won't be that many books out there with my actual thumbprint, and the name to prove whose thumbprint it is.  It's a limited edition signature.  I would only do this again if, for some reason, my signature hand was lame again.
