I have a pretty good idea of where I’m going, but don’t want to say until I know for sure. ;-) And take note of the event in Houston!!! I’ll be signing with Patricia Briggs! I’ve always admired her work, and I can’t wait!

Yes Ann Arbor, Mi I live only 20 miles from Ann Arbor
What a coincidence, Ann. Me too! -grin- Hope to see you there.
Yay! Ohio made the list! TWICE! I’m so psyched, I wasn’t able to go last time. I will walk if I must! lol
~Anna
Ohio has always been good to me, Vixen. Hope to see you there!
I’m so excited!!!! My personal goal that I hoped to accomplish within the next 2 years is to go to a signing and get a photo with you and an autograph or two. I never dreamed that it could come to a reality so soon! I am so blessed that you will be coming so close to me in Iowa. Words cannot express my excitement – I’m looking forward to meeting you. Next steps (more important than requesting the day off) order tour t-shirt (when available) and get a burning bunny pin to show my support. Please express a giant THANK YOU to your people that booked the signing in Iowa.
-grin- See you there, Mindy! And relax! It’s just me!
F-L-O-R-I-D-A!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not this year. Sorry, Amanda
Hi Ms. Harrison instead of going to Des Moines on March 1st you should go to Auburn, Washington cuz that’s my b-day;) I’m just sayin…
It would make my sweet sixteen wonderful!=]
-grin- Sorry, Theresa. Maybe next year. Hope you have a great 16th!
We would love to see you in Dallas, it’s between Lawton, OK and Austin, TX. Just a stone throw away (when you look at it from a map-ha-ha), Aw Kim, you can’t blame me for wishing! Can’t wait to read the newbie. Continued success. -Derrick
Sorry, Derrick. Maybe next year. I’ve been to Dallas before.
Well Rachel is coming to the Bay Area, I think you should too Kim!
Hi Marnie. I love the bay area, but not this year.
NO where in the Southeast? Come on Kim, you’re HUGE down here!
Its not that I don’t like it down there, Jan. They are sending me new places.
Here’s hoping you make it back to Anderson Books in Naperville IL again. It was wonderful to meet you last time, I guess I have to go back to Cincy, the mother-city to meet with you again.
Hi Amy. Anderson’s books is great for YA, but not so much for adult. Come to Cincy! It’s always a great crowd there!
Why not Florida
I agree… boo hoo.
*threadnap* Sheyla, is that a springer I spy in your avatar?
Sorry, Sheyla. I know you guys read down there.
so gald you’re coming to MI again. I hope to see you either in Lansing or Ann Arbor again.
Cool! Hope to see you there, Roxanne!
Oh, no Maryland, DC or Virginia dates. Sad. It is great that you are doing one with Patricia Briggs as well. I love both of your works. Wish I had the means to get to Houston for that weekend.
Hi Courtney. I’ll be in NY later in the year. That’s probably about as close as I’m going to get. Sorry!
You should come up to Boston! We would love to have you here!!
Maybe someday, Lody.
Tink’s A Disney Whore! (I cursed that loudly once at work when a fixture fell on my foot and everyone looked at me like I was insane) March 5th is my 22nd birthday, a Saturday and I live in Texas… only 3 hours and 49 minutes exactly from Murder by the Book… and my Fiance is actually considering the drive! We moved here a year ago and the only larger city we’ve been to is Dallas- which is only 2 hours from where we live. ::IS SO EXCITED!:: I’ll have a few months to read up on Briggs’ work as well… I’m currently reading Brent Weeks’ Black Prism
EeK!
Wow! You guys should make a “date” out of it and add something else on besides little old me. -grin- Oh! You’ve not found Patricia Briggs? OMGosh, she’s good.
Missed you not coming to Austin last tour. SO glad to see that you’re going to be back!
I’m delighted to be coming back, Lisa. Hope to see you there!
I sure am delighted to know that you’ll be coming here to Awesome Austin Texas!! I got to meet all those fabulous authors on the Smart Chicks Kick It! tour that came through in September ( http://www.smartchickskickit.com/schedule.html )and this’ll just be the icing on the cake to meet you!!
Cool. Hope to see you there, Natalie.
What? No Seattle date?
Not this year, Janis. It used to be a given, but not so much anymore. Sorry!
Washington would love to have you again!
Hi Shadee. I love the Washington area, so maybe next year.
please please pleeeeease have a signing in Charlotte again! Or somewhere closer to it… I’ll skip school/work to make it to one. I’ll even bring cookies (or cake)!
I’m sorry, Karin. I thought the Charlotte was a given, but something cropped up, and it didn’t happen. That’s why I hate mentioning anything about the tour until it’s solid.
Please tell me that’s another Rachel morgan book??? I love the hollows !!! And if it’s not then I still can’t wait to see what you have written!! Keep up the wonderful work!!!
Hi Mary. There is another. I’m planning 12 to 13 to finish the series.
I’m glad you’re enjoying them. Thanks!
yeah, coming to see us in Houston again! Was awesome to see you last time with our tour shirts on! Will be there with bells on!
Hi Jill. Hope to see you there again. Shirts should go up soon.
Just curious…why is Houston such a hot spot? It seems that every time my favorite authors go on tour, Houston is always on the list. (This is me being jealous)
Don’t feel bad…hardly anyone really good comes to Orlando either. Guess the Mouse House isn’t conducive to reading
same here. i live in Minnesota. we never get anyone here.
Well besides the obvious (size of the city and location), I think it’s also the book stores. I know Murder by the Book gets a constant stream of authors at their store.
I went to the Patricia Briggs signing this year and I thought the turnout was fairly large. I’m afraid what a Harrison/Briggs signing will look like.
Hi Stephanie. It might be because Houston has a bunch of author/event minded bookstores who have built themselves up as good places to host an event. A publisher won’t send their author to an unproven store. There has to be a history showing they know how to seamlessly run an event with the space and employees who know how to run one. It takes time and dedication on the store’s part.
Hey Kim! Can’t wait for the new book! Would love to have you come to Canada. I’m throwing my vote in for Edmonton, Alberta. Really, it’s not that cold…ok it is.
Hi Jody. No Canada stops this year, eh? -grin- I enjoyed my time in Toronto last year, thought.
No where near me this time…hopefully I can catch the next one.
Sorry, Marsha! Maybe next year.
Come to Florida!!
I’m tempted to drive 12 hrs to see you but it would be nice if it was closer. hehe
Yikes! That’s way too long for me, Fran.
Maybe next year.
Miss Kim– if you ever make it to Orlando (we have great theme parks I hear!), you can stay with me. Hell, I’ll even vacuum for ya!
-grin- Thanks for the offer, Maryellen. You’re too funny.
OMG! YES! so glad that you’re coming back to Houston… it was great meeting you last time
and you’re coming with Patricia Briggs! so freaking awesome…2 of my favorites authors!!
I can’t wait, Sandra. Hope to see you there!
Oh Boy!! Des Moines! That isn’t so far from me… muahahahahahahahaha!!! I have no idea what day of the week that is but my classes can wait. Poo on classes!
Very cool, Stephenie! Hope to see you there!
Not even close to Colorado… That sucks I wouldn’t mind a couple hour drive. None of my favs ever come even close to Denver…
Sorry, Daisy. I’ve been trying to get to Denver for ages.
I can’t wait until February for the book…it’s too far away.
Please add NJ to the book tour!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry Kim. Not this year.
Holy shit you’re coming to Oklahoma? No freaking way!! Too bad it’s Lawton, there is absolutely nothing there…well, I did stick to the outskirts, but it didn’t look like there was a Lawton proper. Maybe going in to Lawton will prove me wrong. :p
Anyway, I’m so there! Sweet! I’m bringing all mah books! Even if it means circling around a few times to keep from holding up the line too long. That’s ok, right?
Austin, TX is a pretty awesome city. I’d take it over living in Oklahoma City any day of the week. You should be able to find all sorts of things to get in to there on your off time. Don’t forget about the bats! And don’t listen to the people on the bat hotline, go just before dusk so you don’t miss out. On the one, and only, night I had available while in Austin to see the bats, we listened to the bat hotline about what time to be there and missed *everything* even the boat tour was finished when we showed up. Jerks.
Ha, just looked at Lawton on the google map, apparently there is a city there! :p Hope no Lawtonites will be angry with me. Driving through Oklahoma is scary enough without locals holding a grudge.
Sara, Oklahoma isn’t scary. What’s scary is a white woman driving thru Arkansas with her black husband. We literally drove AROUND Ark.
Hi Sara. Excellent! Hope to see you there. Ah, about the off time? There is no off time. -grin- It’s properly called recovery time. -laugh- Though I would like to see the bats.
Please come up to Columbus, OH for the TBA date!!! You are sooo close but never make it up to see us in Columbus!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi Amy. We’ll see, but don’t count on it!
Ok wait the RWC I do understand that I’m reading a book with a female lead but I’m going to have to go to this convention ? Lol any women fans I can tag along with lol
Hi NIck. I’m not sure what I’m going to be doing there, but I’ll post more as I figure that out.
I haven’t posted for months and months but I had to on this one. I am so excited you are finally coming to Oklahoma!!!!! YAY
I’ll have to get a burning bunny for the occasion.
-grin- See you there, Jenny!
Some where on the east coast I can drive to lol I don’t mind another Nj to Nc drive again but I can’t get to Texas lol
Sorry, Nick. I think Cincy is the closest I’ll get, and that’s hours away!
Yay! SOOOOOOO glad your coming to Saint Louis!!!! Can’t wait!
Me too, Michelle. See you there!
I wish you would come to the Los Angeles area!!
Maybe someday, Heather.
That would be cool! I everyone that wants to goto Ohio, and is in PA, or NY, and we all get together and have a road trip to see Kim! We could all chip in for gas! XD!! Anyone like the idea? Email me: rommie_rules@yahoo.com
Hi Sian. You might be surprised at how often I go to eat after an event and see groups of people from the signing across the restaurant.
yea haw!! You will be in Cincinnati on the 25th! I have that as a three day weekend. I might just be able to make it this time
Cool! Be sure you tell me it’s you! Hope to see you there.
Sad that I have to way until July for Comic Con to see you, but if that’s how long I have to wait, I’ll wait. Need my books blessed with your sig.
I’ll be there, Emily!
No fair! How come your not coming to PA?? The closest you get is Dayton, OH, which is 4 hrs away!!
i MAY be able to talk my bf into driving me to Dayton, Ohio! It’s only 4 hrs away! (ONLY! :-S)
Mmmm, it’s about four hours away for me, too. -grin- Maybe I’ll see you there, Sian. Dayton is a nice, nice store.
Southern Cali maybe? Sacramento is about 8 hours from me….that’s an unfortunate no-can-do
Not this year, Amanda. Maybe next. Sorry.
Sweeeeet – Tucson! Only 2 hours away! You seriously need to come to Changing Hands in Tempe though!
Cool. Hope to see you there, Kaylabound!
Woohoo! Finally an author I like makes it to Sacramento! Can’t wait!!!
I can’t wait, either, John!
Any chance of coming to the Los Angeles area? I missed you in San Diego this summer (due to my son’s Allstar game- grrr) and I would love to attend a signing- I’m a huge fan
Sorry, Alisa. The tour is pretty much set. Maybe next year.
Howdy ma’am,
Right now I really miss living in Dayton. I don’t see why they can’t drive the short 45 miles down to Cinci though. Looks like there wont be any joy for me unless the TBD turns into Charlotte or Atlanta or closer.
Ohio is a 12 hour drive, and that’s about as close as you get this year. That’s too much for me. Other than that, it looks like a great tour.
I’ll miss you.
V^^^^V
Sorry, Vampy. I know you were hoping. Maybe next year.
No. Damn. Two of my favorite authors, in one place, a gazillion miles away. I didn’t even go down there when Cera finished her championship.
Though, I do a bunch of friends down there, and it’s close to my birthday.
Hmmm.
Fun Page: http://www.goodreads.com/author/quotes/17054.Kim_Harrison
Oh. Mud. That is a cool website. Thanks for bringing that to my attention!
You’re in Tuscon on the tot’s bday. It’s not that far from where my parents live. Hmmm…
Too bad the book festival is the weekend *after* the Tuscon steampunk con. The tot and I could have had one big, bad, bday weekend.
Take care.
~Suzi and the tot, too
Her birthday? How cool is that. Have fun, Suzanne!
D: One CA stop on a Thursday? Looks like I’ll be taking vacation days and a trip to Sacramento. lol
Usually the weekday events start at seven, Kaysie. Hope to see you there!
I second Christine–I wish you would come to Florida too!!!!
Maybe next year, Julie!
see you in Ann Arbor MI
Absolutely, Keana!
Are you going to have anything in South Carolina? How about the upstate? Would love to meet the awesome lady who write these wonderful, exciting novels!
Sorry, Jenn. Not this year. Maybe next.
I vote TBD should be Chicago! We would love to have you AND there is a production of “Dracula” opening that weekend at one of our cities lovely store front theatres!
Hi Elizabeth. The TBD date is already sort of planned out, it’s just if it fits. It might be a rest day. But I love Chicago!
Hello Kim,
I read all your books in 2 weeks, so absourbing. That says a lot because everyone else was waiting on Black magic Sanction to be released. I have read the series twice, I pick up a new book and I just can’t get into it enough to keep reading. Your books have everything mystery, horror, intrigue, romance and much more. The series is the best I’ve read.
I hope you will continue the series for many years, it will be a sad day when it’s over, nothing will ever compare.
I would love it if you came to Northern Virginia sometime.
Thanks, Maria. I really appreciate that! I’m planning on 12 to 13 books, so there is a way to go before it’s done.
Tucson is totally doable
I’m thinking Kylie and I may see you there!
That would be excellent, Annette. Hope to see you there!
How about the south! Please come to Charleston SC my husband is addicted to your books. I never seen anyone read that fast! Possibly Georgia or some where close we could drive to because you have a fan in GA/ Tallahassee FL too!
Sorry, Sherry. Not this year. Very cool that your husband likes the books so much!
So glad you’re coming to Ann Arbor! I’m marking my calendar right now!
Cool! Hope to see you there, Kristen!
How about somewhere in new york?
Not this tour, Kelly, but I’ll be there for RWA later on in the year.
No Washington??? So sad.
Sorry, April. Maybe next year.
I know NJ smells, but we need love too. Probably even more love than places that don’t smell. I promise we’ll be on our best behavior if you can find it in your heart to visit us eventually!
-grin- Sorry, SoozyQue. Maybe next year.
I hope Seattle is on your list. Your books rock !
Sorry, Mary. Not this year.
Oooh…I see nothing north of the border! So I vote the TBD should be a jaunt north…Toronto is lovely in freezing cold February
OMGosh, Krista. I like warm better than cold. -grin-
We’ll miss you in the San Francisco Bay Area!
Hi Julie. I’ll miss the bay, too. It had been one of my usual haunts, but they are sending me to other places now. Sorry.
Hi Kim,
Do you know if you will be coming to Canada again for the YA tour? I sure hope so!
Hi Jenn. I’ve no idea.
Marking calendar on the wall, on the computer, in the blackberry, in my notebook, posting a post it note on the cork board, and having a back up note with my sister in case all else fails to remind me. lol. But not likely that I’d forget it anyway. Thinking I’ll get there early this time to grab a seat. The cover is very intriguing love how she is wearing white this time.
-grin- Hope to see you there, Joelle.
The white was my editor’s suggestion. I love it.
Yall need to come to Alabama, the shoals area in the northwest corner would be lovely, if you could ever swing it! Otherwise its ROAD TRIP, and i love those to!
Hope to see you on tour, Carol!
You should come to Denver or somewhere in Wyoming! I’ve got just about everyone i know reading your books
Hi Jeff. I’ve been trying to get to Denver for a while. Maybe next year?
I second the twin cities!! I really hope to see you here in MN again this year Kim!!
Fingers crossed, Kelly!
Hey Kim so happy about the new book! I was having Rachel withdrawal! I sure wish you was coming to Ga or Tn! Hopefully you can schedule one.
Thanks, Shelly. I’m really excited about this one, too. It’s my favorite.
Can NJ or NYC be put in there?
Sorry, Sandra. It’s pretty much settled.
I know you have fan in the Minneapolis/St. Paul MN area that would love to see you. Would be even better if you could come to Maple Grove MN.
Hi Kim. I go where they send me . . .
Heyde Hey Kim!
*doingthehappydance*
It’s been a long, patient wait but you’re finally coming back to St. Louis and I can’t wait! And I love Patty also, should be an excellent evening.
Hi Mendi! Yep. Make sure I know it’s you when you come up to the desk. Just your name won’t do it. Tell me you post here.
I will be there in Cinci! One question though- when do the tour shirts come out? I didn’t get a chance to get one last year.
Hi Niko. We have to wait until the tour cities are finalized before we can print them up, but they should go on sale mid November. Sales cut off about mid Feb.
Seriously? Again no dates in New York? Come on Kim! I want to meet you and grab some autographs then enjoy Pale Demon on my train rides.
Sorry, Jason. I should be there for RWA, though.
Hmmm…a trip to Ohio from Albany, NY. NOW that would be a birthday present to myself. I just might consider it. I’ve got four wheel drive and I know how to use it too!!
Hope to see you there, Evelyn!
Im super excited. If im still in oklahoma come march im so making the trip to lawton. But im super tempted to make the trip to houston.
Hi Jessica. It’s going to be a madhouse, but I’m sure we’ll get through everyone! Hope to see you there.
So sad that you won’t be coming to PA.
Me to Sabrina!! Noone ever comes here, or any cool things happen here! It’s not fair!
Sorry, Sabrina. Maybe next year.
I wish you would come to Florida sometime
Maybe next year, Christina.
I’m hoping you add a Twin Cities date. St Paul (and Mpls) can’t wait to see you again!
Sorry, Barbara. Maybe next year.
Tour dates! I’m so happy for everyone living in the US to be able to meet you.
Maybe one day.. you’ll come to germany. XD Who knows.. might happen..
Is it really only three months more or less.. untill pale demon comes out? wow.. I’m really curious about the tour shirt..
Oh.. i forgot..
Kim Harrison and Patricia Briggs signing together.. how awesome is that?!
Maybe someday, Stef.
Hi Kim,
Please tell me you mean Des Moines, IOWA!!! I would take the day off work to meet you! How exciting!
Nancy
Hi Nancy. Yep! Hope to see you there!
I’m thinking ROAD TRIP! I live in western NY. Ohio is not THAT far away
Though in Feruary, I’m always lucky if I can get my car out of the driveway.
Yeah me too! I live in SC & OH is the closest, if the weather is going to be good then I just might. I love road trips anyway!
(but I would LOVE to be @ the one w/ Patricia Briggs! Double the awesome writing power)
I’m in Jersey, Yasmin. Any chance you’ll pick me up?
And pick me up on your way thru PA??
Cool! Hope to see you there, Yasmin.
