Hey, Dev! WW is a blast. I'm horrible at keeping up with things while I'm in the middle of it all. The readings and signings have been great so far...Colette didn't get her until it was time for the meet and greet last night, but I. Beacham read a passage from Ms. Moody's The Sublime and Spirited Voyage of Original Sin. It was a very good reading, and very nice to hear it read with a British accent. Rad read a passage from her upcoming paranormal story, and I can't wait to get it.
I've met so many great authors from Bold Strokes...some I'd met before, and some were met for the first time. Also, cover artist extraordinaire Sheri is here, and she is a delight to speak with.
Had dinner with MJ Williamz, Bobbi Marolt, Colette Moody, Sophia Kell Hagin and her partner, Trish Hindley and Jacqui Knowles, Sheri, Friz, and Cathy last night.
We've had drinks a couple of times with Kim Baldwin, Xenia Alexiou, Larkin Rose and her partner, and Sam and Vic Oldham. Everybody has been so nice and open.
I'm doing my first reading tomorrow, and I'm getting a bit nervous. Hopefully it will go quickly, but of course they have me (and Sophia Kell Hagin, another BSB newbie) scheduled to read with Kim, Xenia, Ali Vali, Carsen Taite, VK Powell, Clifford Henderson, Anne Laughlin, Lee Lynch, Leslea Newman, and Rachel Spangler. No pressure there, right?
Speaking of Rachel, her friend, Dick Harder, won the Drag show last night for the second year in a row. Her winning probably had a lot to do with all of the BSB people in the audience rooting for her. Dick didn't wear his assless chaps this year, but instead wore a button up shirt and underwear while doing "Old Time Rock and Roll" a la Tom Cruise in "Risky Business". It was a lot of fun. I'm sure there will be pictures and/or video posted somewhere online.
I'll be posting my pics on Facebook after we get back.
