If anyone knows of any upcoming RB appearances/signings in Illinois (or anywhere close to Illinois), could you PLEASE let me know? I bought a copy of "Dark Carnival" in a rare book store years ago, and I would do anything to get it signed.

Ray in Illinois is highly unlikely. His health permits him car jaunts within reason. Presently, that's about it.

As to your copy of Dark Carnival, do you know someone out here that would get it autographed? Ray does do occasional book signings in the Los Angeles area.

the_skeleton, hey email me at clmi9901@msn.com. Perhaps I can help you a bit.

In response to the post by Nard Kordell, I know a guy in Thousand Oaks, but I doubt he'd go all the way to L.A. for me.

There is an upcoming event in Waukegan in October but unsure at this time whether Ray will attend in person or by teleconference.

Hey, the_skeleton, email me as I had asked. I may have a solution for you. clmi9901@msn.com.
