How Our Events Work

BookPeople is proud to host over 300 events every year. Our events are free and open to the public, unless otherwise stated.

To get a book signed at one of our events, a copy of the event book must be purchased from BookPeople. By purchasing a book from BookPeople, you are not only supporting a local, independent business, but you are also showing publishers that they should continue sending authors to BookPeople. Think of it this way: you wouldn't bring your own beer to a bar, would you?

For events where we anticipate large crowds, wristbands may be required in order to join the signing line. Occasionally we may also ticket events. In both cases, information as to when wristbands/tickets are available will be found on that event's specific page on our website. 

Simon Pegg - Nerd Do Well

  • Adult Event
06/15/2011 7:00 pm

Simon Pegg

Zombies, death cults, and the Starship Enterprise:  actor, comedian, writer, and self-proclaimed supergeek Simon Pegg will be here this evening to regale you all with stories that lead to him becoming the most internationally renowned ginger in space. He'll also be signing his new memoir, Nerd Do Well: A Small Boy's Journey to Becoming a Big Kid.

He’s only doing 3 book signings in the whole country and Austin is one of the stops – this is a big deal! He’ll be speaking briefly, answering questions, and then signing copies of the book that you have purchased from BookPeople.

 

EVENT GUIDELINES: 

*We will begin handing out wristbands for the signing portion of this event when the store opens at 9am on Thursday, June 9th, the day the book goes on sale. When you purchase your copy of Nerd Do Well from BookPeople (and you must purchase a copy of Nerd Do Well from BookPeople in order to get in line for the signing) you will be given a wristband. 

*We will accept online orders for Nerd Do Well through the end of the business day (11pm for us) Friday, June 10th. As of Saturday June 11th, the book will only be available in-store. This is in order to ensure that all the folks who attend the event are able to purchase a copy, meet Simon and have it signed. 

*Because we are expecting a LOT of people at this event, the following guidelines are in place for the signing. Thanks for your cooperation:

~Photos from the signing line are fine, however there will be no posed photos with Simon.  

~Please, no memorabilia.

~If you would like to have a book signed, you must purchase a copy of Nerd Do Well from BookPeople.  

For up-to-the-minute announcements about this event and all things BookPeople, find us on facebook.
