Will Grayson, Will Grayson: Your Book (And Tour) Questions Answered
Reminder: On Monday, March 15th, I'll be talking about vlogging and books in Indianapolis at 7 PM: Indianapolis Public Library 40 E St. Clair St Indianapolis, IN
On Wednesday, I'll be in New York City with David Levithan, Libba Bray, and E. Lockhart doing crazy readers theater at the South Court Room of the New York Public Library's 42nd Street Central Library branch.
Then in April, I'll be on tour a lot. For more info, scroll down. Now then: I have promised to answer your questions and comments. And if there's anything this blog is known for, it's keeping promises. Also breaking promises. But anyway:
"Is it possible for us to buy books at one of the stops on your tour?"
It is not only possible; it is encouraged.
"Why are you not coming to Canada/Seattle/The Moon?"
I would very much like to quit writing and spend all of my time touring to Canada, Seattle, the moon, and your hometown. However, there are a few problems with this plan, most notably that 1. I have a seven-week old son here in the house who demands (and deserves) a lot of attention, and also 2. David Levithan has an actual job, plus 3. I also kinda have a job writing books.
"Man, I wish you could visit Hawaii sometime, John!"
Me, too! My publisher has never offered to fly me to Hawaii to tour, but believe you me, I WOULD NOT TURN THEM DOWN.
"I figured there would be more tour dates. but oh well"
Again, there is this tiny baby who is counting on me to provide him with fresh diapers and lullabies and the like.
"What size shirt do you wear?"
Large, usually.
"Is there a cost for reserving a seat?"
No. The only event that costs money is the one at Symphony Space in New York. You just have to reserve a seat at some of the venues because they are not-huge.
"Prices? Times? please let us know these things, John."
Right, so the price is almost always free; if I know the time, it's listed below. If I don't, it's reasonable to assume that the time will be "early eveningish," but I will certainly give you an exact start time THE MOMENT one has been decided upon.
Hope to see many of you this month and next!
Hope to see you all

*Happy dance*
@Arica: Ohgod they do. Did you tell them? I want to tell them. I'm embarrassed for them. o.o;;
called to "reserve" a seat in madison CT and was told that price of ticket was price of book, i dont mind paying that lol but it just seems like even you don't know all the information, here's hoping I'm not getting ripped off because of my unquestioning nerdfighter-ness.
Just want to reassure "Anonymous" that he/she is not being ripped off and the price of the event is $17.99 which obviously includes the book. The event is held through R.J. Julia Books (203)245-3959 at a great venue called Hubley Hall. Sometimes authors may not have all the information and it is not there fault. John has done a great job promoting his tour and we are honored that he and David have agreed to come to Madison. Tickets are going very fast (YAY!) so call when you can to reserve your copy (ticket). Thanks!
Any detail on April 23rd? I'd really love to go.
@Arica and @Michael: Anderson's Bookshop fixed it. It's John now. :)
Now I just have to decide if I want to drive to LA...actually, I already know I WANT to, but I'm not sure if I can. :|
=(
I seem to always find out you were doing something in indy the day after you do it. This is my fault, I know. It would have been awesome to see you the day before my birthday but I am never up to date.
BUT I'm really excited for the new book!
What date does Will Grayson, Will Grayson come out?
I hope you enjoy your tour!
WG WG comes out on April 6th.
Thank you Anonmyous!
John, when is your next book comming out and is there any way to get a small "preview" of what is to come? :)
Okay, I was just playing 20q, and I was thinking of you, Mr. Green, and it's first guess was Hitler. What the bleep? That game was messed up. But then I said you were popular with teenagers and it guessed John Green. Still, WHAT THE FLIP?
Would love to see you in Seattle! :)
We would love to see you in New Hampshire!
