First sighting in the wild.

I realize that we're eleven days early. That's probably why I feel like I'm having a coronary right now. That having been said, the first sighting-by-author of Rosemary and Rue in the wild has officially occurred, at the San Francisco Borders located at 4th and King.

I am on the very front of the "selected paperbacks" rack.

I am face-outward on the science fiction and fantasy shelf (where, thanks to an accident of alphabetization, I'm located about a foot from Stephanie Meyer).

They have, from quick count while hyperventilating, about twenty-one copies out and on display. If you're not going to make the book release parties, or want to buy multiple copies, or just can't wait, this would be a dandy time to go and make the books go away, so that I can keep on breathing.

Nnnnghg.

*fetches a fan, ice chips, and candy corn*

Hmm, well, Borders' website still says "Not available in stores," so I might have to trek out to Fairlawn--tomorrow between works, or maybe Saturday morn--to see what I can see.

Oh, it's so there. It took all of my will power (which, mind you, isn't a whole lot to start with) to not fangirl all over the damn place.

I read the first twenty-some pages right then and there, and was all *sadface* when I had to put it back and go to work. Payday, you need to get here sooner...

(Edit) Also, it was right next to Gregory Macguire's Son of a Witch. It was a little shelf of pure Awesome.
