I’m sorry for neglecting this blog. I’m starting to
feel like that aunt who you only see at a family gathering every four years or
so. Well, hopefully I will be cool Aunt Emma, with an iPad and a string of
former lovers, and someone you want to meet for lunch. I’ll try not to be like
Aunt Bertha. You know – the one who complains you never write or call or email,
even though she doesn’t own a computer. Yes. Let’s pretend I’m Aunt Emma.
Truth is, I’m worried I’ll run out of subjects to
blog about. As it turns out, once you are a published author, people invite you
to guest blog on their sites. It’s super cool, but also a huge responsibility.
After all, I don’t want to bore readers to tears.
So
basically, I will try to come up with some cool, totally original things to
blog and write them down, to be one step ahead of everyone. *snorts* One step
ahead…who am I kidding?
Let’s start with last week. I went to Vegas for a couple
of days and met with other Entangled authors and editors, and it was such a
positive experience. How lucky was I to be amongst such high-caliber authors
and professionals? There were networking and presentations, and I even attended
Annie Seaton’s book signing.
I met Annie Seaton through New Voices last year, and
since then I’ve been bugging her. She’s helped me as an editor, webpage
designer, friend, virtual soundboard…and in person, she’s even nicer. :D I also
loved meeting Ann Harrison, who is a lady full of spunk and charisma. Both very
talented Aussie authors.
Liz Pelletier’s presentations are always sharp and funny.
She probably thinks I’m an Aunt Bertha for sure, because I think so highly of
her that I act nothing like Aunt Emma around her.
Well, that’s it for today. I just wanted to drop by and
say hello. J
Stay tuned – the talented and lovely Michele de Winton
will guest blog on here this week!
Having dinner with authors Kate Evangelista, Ann Harrison, Mary Lindsey & Annie Seaton :)
