BEAUTIFUL CREATURES, Indeed
Had a great time on Tuesday, January 19th at the reading and book signing of YA authors, Margaret Stohl and Kami Garcia. If you don’t know (you’ve been living under a rock), they are NY Times bestselling authors of the novel, BEAUTIFUL CREATURES; their first. We’ve corresponded online via twitter, facebook and #YAlitchat and I felt like I knew them before tonight. Meeting them in person was like seeing old girlfriends or college mates. I was so proud of them. They hardly seemed nervous, though this was the first stop on their “Southern Tour.” They are pros, as comfortable in front of an audience as they are with one another and rather deserving of their success.
I also got to meet @reverieBR, YA book blogger, photographer and book trailer producer. She is the creative mind behind the awesome trailer for BEAUTIFUL CREATURES and I hear she’s working on Holly Black’s new trailer. AWESOME!
Finally, I met someone who recognized me from my online jaunts. A YA book blogger named Lauren. How cool is that. All around, it was a great day. Oh good Lord. PLEASE, not the Fresh Beat Band again.
Oh wait, did I mention the super cool dog tag? What could be better?
Oh and I think they said someone called the bookstore and asked if I was sgining that night. How funny is that?
