What Happens At Signings, Stays At Signings (Unfortunately)
If I had to make a guess, I’d say that I’ve done over 200 signings since The Name of The Wind was first published back in 2007.
Maybe more. Maybe 250 or so.
I’ve done them in libraries and bookstores. At conventions and universities. I’ve done them in at least seven different countries.
I’ve done events where three people showed up (two of whom were friends) and I’ve done events where 900 people showed up.
And honestly? I’ve enjoyed them all. Big or small. Cosy or Chaotic. I really like getting t...

His next book tour will be planned months ahead of the release, and the bookstore won't request him if they don't think anyone in the area will be interested in attending. Pat has shown that he contacts any bookstore in the area when he travels and has free time, so it's left to the bookstore to be welcome to the idea of hosting him.
I would come to Nashville to meet Pat and get him to sign my book. Do you have both books in HB in your store? I would re buy both and drive 4 hours!

I am a bookstore events coordinator, but not the coordinator for the Books-A-Million in Nashville. I work for New Hampshire's oldest independently operated bookstore (est 1898!). Sorry to disappoint you. (I can, however, get you a signed copy of something from Terry Brooks, he's coming by at the end of July). Just so you know, if you contact a store ahead of time to ask that they have a specific item on hand to purchase at a signing, they will ALWAYS order it for you because it is a guaranteed sale. You can also check their inventory online.
