During the RT BookLovers Convention, I won a lovely gift basket from Louisa Bacio@Louisabacio for my costume at the 'Steampunk High Tea Party' (I will eventually convert all readers to Liad through costumes and my big mouth. It will just take some time.)
I wanted to give an update regarding the books I have in my greedy hands thanks to the gift card included in the basket:
So, just back from RT Booklovers and boy, they weren't kidding. The name of the convention is spot on. So many awesome books. Here's just a small sample of the actual books I have to look forward to. I didn't include the ebooks and many other promo items for authors I'm looking forward to reading.
I decided to attend the convention at the last moment and wasn't sure what to expect. I'm happy to report that everyone was so friendly and welcoming. I went from a singleton not knowing anyone at the event to connecting with some awesome authors and readers. On top of meeting people, it was just fun attending the events.
Here's my setup from RT. It was nice to have a little setup so people could see what I'm working on.
I passed out a couple 'Fallen Angels' shirts. Did you get one? ;D I still have a couple to pass around, but holding onto them for now. Interested in a shirt? I might have your size. :D
Dresden wants to know WTF happened to his nap spot and who dared put all books there!
I've started finding everyone I was lucky enough to meet on various social media locations. I'm looking forward to learning more about all the people in the reader/writer community. I'll also be reading through the books, so look for my monthly read-list.
Looking forward to BookLovers Con next year. Bigger and better costumes for me. ;) Maybe. I need to think about how much room I'll need to get all those books home!
One my favorite events of the convention: Bridesmaids, Bachelors and Bubbly.
