The annual RWA National Conference is being held in New York City this year and will henceforth land in NYC every four years. I haven’t attended RWA since the San Francisco conference in 2008, and I haven’t been to New York since 2003, the last time RWA hosted the conference there. I had a wonderful time, and I can’t wait to go back.
Are you going? Put up your hand.
I won’t be signing as Cindy at the Literacy Autographing this year, because WHERE SHE BELONGS doesn’t release until December. Insead, I filled out the form asking for Penny’s publisher to supply copies of Secrets 28: SENSUAL CRAVINGS and Secrets 26: BOUND BY PASSION to the Autographing. In 2008, I sat there with only two copies of Secrets 26 to sell. The box of books had been lost, and I was lucky two copies of Secrets 26 were stuffed in with the copies of Secrets 27 (which, alas, doesn’t feature Penny).
So hopefully this year I’ll be sitting behind my (well, Penny’s) super secret name sign with more than two books to sign. You’ll most likely find me beside successful author (and very nice person) Roxanne St. Claire (if that doesn’t get you scrambling to click those book links to Amazon and figure out which of the same two names on 26 and 28 are me, nothing will). It’s easy to spot me. Just look for the long line of fans lining up for Roxanne’s books, then look to her left or right. I’ll smile, you’ll ignore me, and ask Roxanne to sign one of her books to you. It’ll be fun!
Honestly, Penny doesn’t bite. Only when asked. And then you have to ask real nice.
New York, New York! What a wonderful town!!
