Been asked to autograph an anthology in which a story of mine appears

[Orrex]

Never been asked to do that before.

What the heck do I write, other than my name?

1. Hardest writing you'll ever do is the dedication

"Thanks for being a reader!"
"Enjoy!"
"This one's for you!"
"Fictionally yours!"

[Orrex]

4. LOL. Yeah.

Guess I'll go with the K.I.S.S. method!

[Wait Wut]

2. Is it a friend or close acquaintence?

If so, a very short personal message is fine (one sentence). If not, a simple 'Best wishes, Orrex" or something similar.

Short is key.

[Orrex]

3. An online friend of about six years

Not a close friend per se, but we know each other reasonably well.

Thanks for the suggestion!

5. How about:

I'm happy that you enjoyed reading it.

Oh, and

[Tom Ripley]

6. "My week beats your year"...

or maybe not.

[Dr. Strange]

7. Might I suggest...

"Dear Reader,

I wrote this story while naked. Hope you enjoyed it!

Love,

Orrex, PhD, DDS"

Congratulations! Sounds like quite an achievement. (I mean you story).

9. Like this...

"... and a book too! Best wishes, Orrex."

10. I would just write your name

because you are sort of blocked about what to write.
I don't sign my paintings for that reason.

[Phentex]

11. Isn't it obvious?

This is my signature.

[Orrex]

12. I've been warned not to use too-clever signatures.

[OriginalGeek]

13. Use a red pen and write

"This user has placed you on ignore"

[Orrex]

14. I'm sure that I have no idea of what you're talking about.
