Okay I really didn’t think I’d be blogging this weekend, but the stars aligned and here I am. I spent last night up at Lacy’s house with Emma and her kids. It was a blast, except I took a muscle relaxer before I went to sleep and woke up feeling like I had a hang over. All day! So no muscle relaxers unless I’m high on the pain scale. Tonight I’m back home, and then we’ll head back up for another slumber party tomorrow.
Okay, here’s why I wanted to blog. I just got back from the book signing. It really was fantastic. The people talking and signing were three authors from Kensington’s Aphrodisia line Bonnie Edwards, Susan Lyons, and Lacy Danes. Now I’d never officially met Susan or Bonnie. All though apparently Bonnie sat at my table during the PI luncheon (K, I was just freaking out about winning the SOM contest, I don’t remember much!) But these ladies are so nice, and had such great stories about how they got where they are today. One thing I thought was interesting was, I asked all three if they were plotters or pantsers, and they’re all pantsers. So it’s not just me! Though I usually do a bare bones outline. So anyway (Bonnie and I had a great talk about anyway and anyways: get rid of the s!) I bought Hot in Here, and The Hard Stuff.
After the signing we all sat down and had dinner, with other authors Ann Roth and Alexis Morgan. And these are all people who made to NY. And they’re all sweet and supportive. Bonnie even signed my book ‘See you in NY’ which made my day. I know, I’m easy! But the biggest thing I take from it, and get reminded of, is that for most authors getting to NY is not an overnight thing. Heck, it can takes years. Over a decade for some writers! Anyway I convinced them to do My Space, I think, and we talked a lot about Amazon Connect. Good stuff.
All right, I’m still tired. Soooo off to sleep for me in a few. Have a great weekend, y’all! If you see me online the next couple days, the internet up at Lacy’s is weird with my laptop and doesn’t like me. So if you IM me and I don’t answer, it’s not cause I don’t love you!
