Miami Book Fair Fun

Two VIP members of my publishing team and I spent a long weekend in Miami at the Miami Book Fair International a couple weeks ago. They were long days, but we had fun, ate great, met lots of people and learned a lot. I share what we learned from an author's perspective over at my other blog.

The "Before" picture of our half-booth - the ugliness we were given at 9 a.m. Friday morning. Notice the two venti SB cups - we couldn't have made it without them!

An "After" picture of me and Chrissi, the greatest business partner evah. Except for the parking garage in the background, our booth turned out quite pretty , if I must say so myself. :)

Me and Lisa, the other VIP of my publishing team, with our newly created sign.

Me and my new writer-friend, Tracy. It was the last day, so yeah, we look a little wiped. At least, I do.

We met a ton of people, some who were real, uh, characters. Like Madeline, an old favorite from my youth.

I also met Ellen Hopkins and she signed my copy of Fallout. Still deciding whether to keep it or give it away... Hmm...

Guess you'll find out in the upcoming Purpose virtual release tour, launching this week. So check back because we have lots of fun stuff planned and all kinds of goodies to give away!
