Romantic Times in New Orleans! I'm going to be there! Are you?

RT starts next week, and in case you haven't seen the line up of registered authors,
 you can find it here. I will definitely be making a fool of myself fangirling all of these fab authors, and having a blast hanging out with readers and bloggers. I'm also on a Sex in New Adult panel with Abbi Glines, Jennifer L. Armentrout, Jay Crownover and Sophie Jordan on Friday. You guys know my secret of writing all my sex scenes first, so this panel is right up my alley! If any of y'all are going to be there, I'd love if you'd stop by and say hi! I'll have swag, which may or may not include hot boys and candy! Here's where you'll be able to find me (besides at The Dungeon most nights ;p).

Hi! *waves*

One of my very favorite things about being published is that I get to meet all kinds of people that I never would have otherwise. I’ve had other authors, bloggers and readers come to see me when I’ve been out in the world for signings, and it’s always fun to meet you. I especially love having a face to put with a Twitter handle or Blogger profile name. But it’s confusing when you guys have, say, Tinkerbell as your avatar, because then I’m expecting Tinkerbell. =)

Seriously. Thanks for all your support out here in the world. I’m in LA today getting ready to sign at the Barnes & Noble in Huntington Beach tomorrow from 7-9pm. If you’re in the area, stop by and say hi! =)

On my way here, I stopped by a Barnes & Noble that I’d signed stock in at the beginning of October, on another trip to the southland. I was thrilled to see that they had four copies left in stock, but none of them were any of the eight copies I signed six weeks ago. It always makes me feel good to realize that people have bought my book. I so hope you all enjoy it!

So, by tomorrow evening, there will be signed copies of Personal Demons at the Booklovers Café in Carmichael, CA, Keplers Books in Menlo Park, CA, Barnes & Noble in Sacramento, Santa Clarita, Newport Beach and Huntington Beach, CA, as well as in Chicago at the Borders in Hyde Park and Lincoln Village; Indianapolis at the Borders at Castleton; and Seattle at Third Place Books, or Borders and Barnes & Noble in Lynnwood, Downtown, Everett, and Bellevue.

I have a couple of northern CA stops between Thanksgiving and Christmas. After all, what could make a better Christmas gift than a book about demons? I'll be at Copperfields Books in Napa on Black Friday (11/26) from 1-3 and at the Borders in Pleasant Hill on Dec. 4th from 4-6! Hope to see some of you there!

Personal Demons in the news...and me in the world

Am I coming or going? I've lost track. I've had so many book events in the last few weeks, and many more coming up in the next few months. As busy as I've been, I have to say, I'm having a blast! I've done some TV and radio shows, which are always fun. There's this interview with Sacramento & Company on the Sacramento ABC affiliate:


And this radio interview with KFBK's Kitty O'Neal, who's a Sacramento radio institution.

I've done some fun trade shows and met some amazing authors, such as Ellen Hopkins and Ally Condie (Never fear! I scored you guys signed books!), and many fabulous booksellers.

And today, right now, as you're reading this, I have the honor of speaking to the County of Los Angeles Public Library Readers Advisory Workshop, where I'll have the opportunity to meet nearly one hundred librarians, who are some of my very favorite people. :p

I've got signings coming up in LA, Indianapolis, Chicago, Huntington Beach, Napa, CA, Pleasant Hill, CA, and Dallas, so I'm really looking forward to meeting some of you on the road too!
