The details:

  • Your ticket includes a copy of the book and an assigned time slot to join the line and get your book signed!
  • We don’t want to make you stand in line all day — so we’re offering tickets that come with specific time slots between 3pm and 6pm, which will be assigned by order of purchase. (Ticket times are approximate, because we can’t guarantee that everything will be precisely on time, but we’re going to try to get everyone in as close as possible to their assigned time slots.)
  • Once you’ve purchased your ticket, we’ll follow up with you one week before the event with an email including your approximate time slot, and that’s when you should show up for the signing.

Felicia will also sign copies of her memoir You’re Never Weird on the Internet (Almost) which may be purchased in advance at the link at the bottom of the page. Please note that in order to make sure everyone can get their book signed, Felicia will not be able to sign any other memorabilia or fan art.
  • We’ll be handing out the actual tickets the day of the event and following a list of ticket holders, so no need to worry about which very safe place you left yours in.
