Ok .... where is our Koontzmaster? There are no promised pictures that were supposed to be posted in the Signings section and no acknowledgment that Oddkins was missed in the Book section of the website ...

Yes she hasn't posted in ages. Maybe she has fallen down a well and is even now shouting about needing to update her website..?

hey guys, hahah. No well, lol. Actually the graphics card on my computer decided to stop cooperating with me altogether, so I haven't been online much lately.

sorry for the long wait, I will get them up by sunday!

I need to fix this up a little but here they are!

Yay great pics, thanks Koontzmaster. Do you reckon Dean is wearing a wig by the way?

thanks.

Actually, I believe they are hairplugs but I forget. He actually mentioned it before somewhere, maybe an interview or something. His old books show his head w/ less hair, kind of burt reynolds-ish, and I think a lot of people asked him when they saw his new look. What I remember is that it was not a toupee.

She lives! Thanks for sharing the pictures! I was being the impatient sort, waiting to live vicariously through someone else who got to meet him!

haha, no problem. I need to add a paragraph or two describing the event. I forgot to mention how graceful dean was. He was there signing for probably 10 hours at least I'm sure. When I got up there it had been about 8 or 9 hours, and I found out he hadn't taken a lunch break all day. He said he'd stay until everyone got their books signed. When I got up to him I asked if this long day broke any records for signings and he said he'd done a longer one before. He was very gracious and didn't seem at all bothered or upset that he was signing all day without lunch.

I also got to see the new wing of CCI that the Koontz's donated money to build. It's very nice. There is a large family room where the disabled and their families can relax and adjust to their new assistance dogs. They actually live on the location for a few weeks to learn all the commands, etc. Only the cream of the crop of the assistance dogs graduate the program, and the ones that don't all get homes, they have a 5 year waiting list to adopt the dogs that don't make it to graduation!

I thought it was a great event, and for a good cause.

I can't beleive I missed this signing. This is going to haunt me. Thanks for sharing the pics Koontzmaster
