PHOTOS. OF. AWESOME!

Remember those photos I promised you?  I bet you thought I was going to let you down, what with there not being a new post up this morning, huh?

Well.  It took a little longer that I had hoped, but I finally (temporarily) got my camera working.  And as for my awesome weekend, let me just say...


I got to meet the ladies who wrote all those.


Did I mention I got their books signed?


All those books?


Yeah.  And the women were pretty great, too - the funny, quick-thinking, hilarious kind of great.  And the generous kind - they signed books for HUNDREDS of people.  HUNDREDS.  Margaret Stohl actually came out and worked the line, signing books and chatting while people were waiting, because she's that cool and nice.

So, yeah.  AWESOME.


NOW: since I have almost a hundred followers, I'll have an announcement coming up in the next couple of days, involving a contest with some pretty cool prizes.  AWESOME prizes, even.  But not yet.  For now, I'm going to go lie down in the middle of my books of awesomeness.

  2. Gha, I envy you! I so want to go to conferences and book signings. Maybe I'll get lucky and find one when I go to Boston in October... Probably not, though, I'll be too busy SHOPPING! Everything in the USA one third of the price of the same item in Iceland.

    But it's SO cool you got to meet those writers ^.^

  5. Faith - you'll get your turn, don't worry. And stay tuned for my soon-to-be-announced 100 Followers Contest; you never know what I might offer up as a prize!

    Tessa - I envy you your shopping trip! And the ladies were all really, really great.

    Golden Eagle: BEAUTIFUL CREATURES is amazing - it sucked me in and wouldn't let me go. I had to pry myself away from it.

    Alex - thanks for your vote of confidence and your (early) congratulations!

  6. I've read all of those books and LOVED them all! I was hoping to catch the Smart Chicks tour here in Canada, but alas, no. You've got some awesome memories there!
