Finally was last year at the reception after the premiere for the Ghost Brothers play in Atlanta, GA. That was a brief handshake and "How'd'ya do?" as he was swamped by a crowd and made his exit quickly. Didn't have time to make a fool of myself this go around. Plus I looked so dashing in my suit...
But truthfully, Miss Mod is much cooler. =D

Ms. Mod is very cool; I'm glad other people who have met her feel the same. :)Quote:

The first time I saw Steve in person was a Bag Of Bones signing here in Boston. My inscription request for my 2nd copy of the book (the first was to me of course) made him laugh out loud, which made me very happy.
I think I just said/mumbled "Thanks, I've enjoyed your work" or something like that. I think I've said some form of the "Thank you" mumbling at every other book signing I've been to since.
The only time I can say I 'met' Steve was a pre-talk "Cocktail Party" in Manchester Vermont. The event description said he wouldn't be signing any books, but he did start signing as soon as he got into the room. I had forgotten my 'just in case' books at home (bummer!) so I had him sign the postcard sized event ticket and had my picture taken with him. (Very cool!)

Note: I have lost about 30 pounds since then and got a much nicer pair of glasses!!!
I met him 3 times. 1st and 3rd times was the absolute best. 2nd time, i think he wasn't feeling to good. I wish he would get out more often and meet his fans!
