caliente_ukI had a great time at Collectormania on Sunday, which I went to with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
spikereader. I saw lots of you there, and it was wonderful to finally put faces to names. I'll write a proper report later and reply to all of the comments I've received over the weekend. :)
I was pleased to get the chance to say a few words to James when he signed his autograph for me. He told me that he'd had a great time at the dinner on Thursday and that there had been lots of "good conversation", which was good to hear. I did point out that my contribution to the conversation was only small, but that yes, it was good. :) I also passed on a message from K, which he seemed genuinely touched by.
Having my photograph taken with James was something I'd been nervous about (I hate having my picture taken), but was actually a lovely experience. James makes you feel so at ease, and is so warm and soft and friendly. It really was a special experience. :) I almost ran away without having my second picture taken, but got called back, so had to go through it all again. Not complaining here. :D
The Q&A was wonderful! I know there are transcripts for this, so I won't even try to go into detail, but it was so good. Especially the beginning part with Steve! :D
More to come later. Possibly with a few pics. :) No pics of the gigs, though, as I prefer to sit, look and listen rather than snap away. I'm sure other people took plenty! :)

It was a marvelous few days that I will remember.
Only James can inspire such feelings and emotions .:)
And as I just said to Carolyn , it 's something wonderful to put faces to names and be friendly and chatty in real while we're so used to do it on a day-basis!

I only wish that we could do it on a more regular basis!
