  Do you wish to have your picture included on the opening page marquee of Killer Nashville 2007.  If so, please give us a web page URL containing the picture that you would wish us to use (do NOT send pictures):

In an average bookstore, who are some of the other authors that would be found in your section of the bookstore?

  I would like to request to speak on one or more panels.  My expertise (beyond credits) includes:

  If chosen as a panelist, I would like to have my biography published on the Killer Nashville website.  If yes, please supply a no-more-than three sentence biography:

  I have had previous experience moderating a panel.

  I wish to moderate a panel at Killer Nashville 2007.

  I wish to sign books on Friday offsite at Barnes & Noble Cool Springs (transportation from Marriott available).*

  I wish to sign books on Saturday onsite during the conference.*

  I wish to sign books on Sunday onsite during the conference.*

  I wish to informally sign books on Saturday night offsite during the Landmark Booksellers Killer Nashville Appreciation Cocktail Party (transportation from Marriott available).**

  I wish to appear on a panel on Saturday.

  I wish to appear on a panel on Sunday.

  Are there specific times or days that you would NOT be able to appear either on a panel or for a book signing?  If so, what are those days or times?

*All signing times for onsite and offsite events are at the discretion of Barnes & Noble.  I understand that if this information is received after July 1, 2007, Barnes & Noble will progressively have a harder time ordering copies of my books to sign.  Only books carried by traditional distributors will be available to be signed offsite at the B&N Bookstore Cool Springs.  Authors may not bring their own books to the offsite signing.  Any questions regarding availability of books should be addressed to Robbie Bryan at B&N 615-377-9979.

** I understand this is a “mixer” as opposed to a “traditional signing.”  Attendees will be given the opportunity to purchase my books, find me at the party, and ask me to sign.  Because this bookstore specializes in used books and collectables, only a few copies of my in-print books may be ordered by the store.  I understand I am encouraged to bring copies of my own books (in-print and out-of-print) to sell and sign at this event.  Any questions regarding bookstore discount terms off retail price should be addressed to Landmark Booksellers 615-791-6400.
