This is my theme song for this week:
As you’ve probably heard, the RT Booklovers Convention is this week in L.A. I’ve been looking forward to this trip for a long time! I’ve signed up for a ton of workshops – everything from “Romancing the Killer Instinct” to “5 Times a Night? Really?” I can’t wait to meet readers, other new authors, as well as some of the big names from the NY Times Bestseller list. As both an author and a reader, I’ll be pulled in many directions.
Besides all the great information and networking, a conference like RT is all about the goodies! I’ll be looking for new ideas for bling and swag (bookmarks, key chains, trading cards, gadgets, and the like) as well as free books, both to read and pass along.
I’ll also be giving away some goodies of my own at the Indy Expo on Friday, and you’ll even have the chance to win a Kobo e-reader (Remember my post last week?). Independent authors and publishers from all over will be available to sign books and visit from 4-6pm at the Westin Bonaventura. The public is also welcome (for a small $5 entrance fee). I’m really looking forward to meeting readers, so if you’re in town, please stop by!
I CAN’T WAIT!
But, before all the fun, I have to get my bags packed. Maybe a better theme song for today would be:
Meet an Author Monday
Whether your a reader or a writer, there’s a lot of great information and fun on the Hop. Check it out!
I’ll definitely let you all know how the 5 Times a Night seminar goes…I’m hoping it’s FICTION! 😎
@Gabriella – I know how you feel! Some weeks I think all the days are Mondays. I think I’ll have a few extra Fridays this week though. Conventions are very busy and tiring, but they are more fun than anything. And without kids and chores and housework, it definitely won’t feel like Monday!
I love the bangles. I think that theme song plays everyday for me. LOL
Have a wonderful time. It all sounds like great fun.
My mind is as dirty as Nicki’s because I was immediately drawn to that Five Times a Night seminar. But what will they be discussing there? *snickers* Have a great time in L.A. I love it too!
Five Times a Night? Really? Haha. Oh, you’ve GOT to do a whole blog post on that one alone when you get back, please, please, please? Have a great, super, wonderful time!!!
