Melani Blazer

I’ll come back after works and add the code…maybe…

I worked til after bedtime last night to finish rough draft of my synopsis. That’s my story and I”m sticking to it.

It’s RT Convention week. I went to St. Louis 2 years ago and had a lot of fun. Here’s 13 things I loved about it, and am sorry I’m missing now:

1) Meeting up with my friends.

2) Meeting new authors and/or putting a face to a name I’d seen online

3) Free books

4) a break from routine, ala vacation in a hotel and everything (can you tell I don’t get out much?)

5) conversation with people who understand

6) getting to be “Melani Blazer” (that’s not who I am all day, so it’s kind of a moment of enjoying a split personality )

7) buying new clothes in preparation

8) wearing clothes you wouldn’t be caught dead in back home

9) free food (the fruit/pastry breakfast tables were the most divine!)

10) did I mention free books. I got LOTS of books!

11) oh, and I got a few of my favorite friends (authors) to SIGN their books

12) hearing industry news/gossip in person

13) meeting booksellers and reviewers and thanking them in person for selling/reviewing my books.

this was the smiley I was looking for back on Jaci’s blog for her question today. I knew I saw it somewhere. Y’all are making me so jealous that I haven’t ever been to one of these RT things. Not sure I’ll get to go soon, unless it comes to closer to the Canadian border! LOL

I’d love to go to RT some year. I’m going to have to count my pennies in order for that to happen though. Then everyone better look out!
