This week's question is: Have you met a favorite author and have a picture? Share.


MY ANSWER: Oh yes I have! I've met quite a few authors! Generally I have to travel to see them. Usually just up to Chicago, but I have gone as far as Pennsylvania when I couldn't wait any longer to see Maria V. Snyder! Ended up going to the signing day at RT 2008! The first author I ever met was Kim Harrison. And that was in 2005 when I didn't know about RT and it was in St. Louis! GASP!

Kim was signing at a Waldenbooks (sob! Borders affiliate!) at a nearby mall so I went then! Later saw her again in Chicago (multiple times) for her books as well!

TONIGHT I am going to the first St. Louis signing since 2012! Not many authors come my way, but I was psyched to see that Kelley Armstrong, Kiera Cass, Kimberly Derting and Danielle Paige are all in attendance!! So excited about that one! There'll be a separate post for that (then I gotta pack for RT!)!

But here's a picture of me and Andrea Cremer when I met her in 2012! That was seriously the best year for author appearances in St. Louis!
