I went to Chicago North’s Spring Fling conference a few weeks ago and had a fabulous time. J. Leigh Bailey, Stephani Hecht, Jackie Nacht and I presented a workshop on M/M romance (which was moderated by T.A Chase), I participated in my first book signing, and got to meet some lovely authors. It was my first writing conference as a published author (I obviously don’t get out much) and meeting people who have read my books and enjoyed them…there’s nothing quite like that feeling. It was kind of like having Sally Field moments. I tried to maintain my composure and not geek-out too much, but I’ll admit, meeting readers left me with a ridiculous smile on my face.
I hope everyone is having a great weekend! I’m ducking back in the writing cave to continue working on Viscount’s Wager, the 3rd book in the Gambling on Love series. I’m loving how the book is coming together. Oh, the drama. Oh, the angst. Oh, the smex…and if all goes well with the angst today, then I should be writing some smex later tonight. :)
Exciting news about All in with the Duke! And seriously, you just went to your first conference as a published author?! O.O
ReplyDeleteI went to one other conference in 2007, pre-pub days. Last summer, I decided 2014 would be the 'year of the con' for me (past time to get out of the writing cave & all). So Spring Fling in April & RWA this July.
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah, I had a bit of a no-con spell going on there for a while. Kept talking myself out of going then smacking myself for not going when I'd hear from other authors about how much fun they'd have at cons. I took the plunge this year to avert more self-smacking :)
