I think I've told this story before...
The first time I met pTerry was November 2001 at a book signing in a little independent store in Lancaster. I was at Uni there and it was the first I'd ever heard of an author signing. It felt to good to be true.
I even bunked off from an Art seminar as I didn't wanna miss the signing. I arrived early and no-one seemed to be about. I ventured into the shop, and there was pTerry amongst all these piles of books. Just pTerry, wearing khaki trousers, black shirt a a hat with, I'm sure of it, corkscrews on it. And he was lovely and relaxed, taking the time to talk with everyone. I asked a daft bleeding question which he answered, and he signed the copy of The Last Hero and put a flyer for DWCon02 in the book
And I ran away before I started gibbering
