I'm Bound for BEA!

On Thursday, I’m hopping on a plane to NY to attend BEA (Book Expo America) for the first time. I can’t tell you how excited I am to have this opportunity to meet some amazing authors and finally get a chance to meet some of the wonderful book bloggers I’ve been following and tweeting with over the past year and a half! In addition, I’ll finally get to meet some of the amazing publicists I’ve worked with over the years.

Some things I’m really looking forward to:

Friday

  • From 2-3 pm I will be one of over 40 bloggers at the Firebrand Technologies booth (#4077). If you are coming to BEA, stop by and see me! Be sure to bring your business cards! Visitors to the booth will be entered to win a Sony Reader! Click here for a list of book bloggers that will be signing.

  • Friday night is the BEAtweetup, which is the “unauthorized, unofficial, and entirely necessary Tweet-Up for Book Expo America 2009, complete with music, dancing, Belvedere Vodka literary themed cocktails, and Bookish Tweeps from all corners of the universe.” Over 400 bookish people will be in attendance (plus there’s a waiting list!)

Saturday

  • I will be interviewing Neil Jones, inventor of COOL-ER, the elegant and affordable e-Reader. Any questions you’d like answered?

Here is a line up of the panelists:

Amy from My Friend Amy
Beth from Beth Fish Reads
Dawn from She is Too Fond of Books
Julie from Booking Mama
Natalie from Maw Books
Stephanie from The Written Word

I’m attempting to learn how to post via my blackberry, so check back later in the week for BEA updates!
