So it should come as no surprise that the pair had a sweet moment on Wednesday when they looked back on an activity that they used to do when they had just been casted for the cult HBO series: practicing signing their autographs. It all began when a Twitter user posted a photo online of the pair’s signatures on a Game of Thrones book, captioning it “Maisie and Sophie’s quality 2009 signatures.” > [](https://twitter.com/danysdragonn/status/887394443837550592) Williams replied to the tweet by letting the fan in on a secret: she and Turner had actually practiced their signatures for days! > [](https://twitter.com/Maisie%5FWilliams/status/887695072208224258) Turner confirmed that this was true, adding that they had practiced “for hours” before heading to a book signing. > [](https://twitter.com/SophieT/status/887706378390970368) Long live the Sisters Stark! ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4866199/sophie-turner-maisie-williams-signatures-twitter/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4866199/sophie-turner-maisie-williams-signatures-twitter/"},"headline":"Here's the Adorable Way Sophie Turner and Maisie Williams Practiced for Game of Thrones Fame Together","datePublished":"2017-07-20T15:25:24.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:45:31.407Z","description":"\"We practiced these for days\"","url":"https://time.com/4866199/sophie-turner-maisie-williams-signatures-twitter/","keywords":["Newsfeed","game of thrones","celebrities","viral","twitter","Maisie Williams","Sophie Turner"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt1ef38b3652d49764/6988d67497cdff28d86b1acd/sophie-turner-maisie-williams-signatures.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Cady Lang","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/cady-lang/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt1ef38b3652d49764/6988d67497cdff28d86b1acd/sophie-turner-maisie-williams-signatures.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Featured Session: Game of Thrones - 2017 SXSW Conference and Festivals","caption":"Featured Session: Game of Thrones - 2017 SXSW Conference and Festivals","creditText":"Amy E.
