Due to scheduling conflicts, I’m not able.to attend RWA’s annual conference this year. Since I only live two hours away, however, I will be able to spend some time in Anaheim visiting with some of my favorite authors.

Tonight was the annual literacy signing. I met up with some fellow So Cal Bloggers (Tracy, Renee, Rosie and honorary member Lisabea [aka LB Gregg]) and hit the convention center to stalk…er…meet some of our favorite authors.

I meant to take pictures of the room,  but spaced it in all the excitement. I did get some pictures with some authors.

Nalini Singh
Jill Shalvis
Lauren Dane
Kira Brady (she’s so tall!)
Vivian Arend
Sarah MacLean

I have to tell you, I had a wonderful time stopping by and saying hello. I even stood behind Linda Freaking Howard for like 5 minutes without realizing it. Please excuse me while I squee like a fangirl.

Linda. Freaking. Howard. !!!

After the signing we had a meal in the lobby bar with Lynn and Blythe from AAR, along with many of our So Cal Bloggers. It was lovely to visit about books, the latest dramas and life in general.

I drove home for the evening (and can I just say So Cal traffic sucks?) but I’ll be heading back tomorrow afternoon.

Stay tuned…
