I’ve been lucky enough to hear David Sedaris read twice, and have one book signed by him (although most of my book collection is in storage, so it was a booksale copy of Barrel Fever, my least favorite of his works). He is always in the lobby before and after his performances, and sits there signing books until everyone has had their turn.
I really like that.
Now it seems that some people have started bringing in Kindles for him to sign. The New York Times has the story of the weirdest things Sedaris has signed to date, and how Kindle signing is not as uncommon as you would think.
