Alan with Laurie Mann (AKA JRandomRohirrim on TORN)

Right after the signing (which lasted 2 3/4ths hours), Alan had to change to get ready to make a presentation at the Chesley Award Ceremony that night. I transferred Alan to Joni Dashoff, a Chesley regular, and went off to a panel that I was on. After my panel, I caught the end of the Chesleys, then brought Alan over to the guest of honor dinner. He spent most of that evening at the other end of the table, talking with Jane Yolen - it turned out they knew each other already (and can you imagine the wonderful results if they ever started to collaborate?). On Sunday, after a second, shorter signing, I finally found the time to have my photo snapped with Alan.
