BEA Bound!


Hey Everyone!

I just wanted to throw up a quick post today to let you know the blog will be slow for the next several days as I'll be attending BookExpo America in New York City. This will be my third year going and, as always, I'll have my mother and mother-in-law in tow so it will inevitably be yet another family adventure. Win.

I fail at taking pictures mostly because the only camera I own is a large one with multiple lenses, and I lack the motivation to lug it through NYC and BEA on top of carrying books, so usually I just sort of throw myself into pictures with other people and then randomly ask if they'll email me a copy. Well done me. I do plan on doing a recap when I return though, so I guess you'll all find out how successful I was at photo bombing people ;-)

To give you a little laugh, I thought I would leave you with my favorite picture from last year: Me (left) and Melissa from I Swim For Oceans with a pirate.


Confused? Believe me, I was too. I don't know how we ended up with this pirate. One minute we were sitting on the ground taking a break from the lines and the next thing I know poof! Insta-pirate. Awesome.

Talk to you all next week!

  17. OMG JENNY, I'M SO JEALOUS! I hope you had a great time, got loads of books, and met some awesome bookish bloggers/authors! Can't wait to see some pictures and hear all about your adventures in (what is in my opinion) the treasure island for books. :P <3 x

  19. I can't believe I have gone yet another year without meeting you face to face! *sad*
    I saw the pirate or "a" pirate this year and as a costume person, I was very disappointed to see he was wearing sneakers. I mean, come on!

    I was going to ask him what subway Pirates ride. The answer is the Arrrrrrr.
