Houston recap!

OMG! You cannot believe how much fun I had going to Houston and meeting so many awesome people!

I MET JENNIFER ARMENTROUT!

I HUGGED PEPE!

I HUNG OUT WITH HEATHER SELF

Check out the pics....

Declaration of Jennifer L Armentrout day!

Cute boy hanging out during the declaration!

Cute boy watching JLA be cool!

Jennifer eating the mic!

Have I told you that Pepe has the BEST laugh!


OKAY, I know! It's a total fail that I didn't get pics of me with Heather!!! But I do have one of me with Jennifer and Pepe!!



I will admit that my phone died BUT don't hate the iPhone because the reason it died was because of all the video that I took during the Q&A! AND I'm sharing it with you! You're welcome!


 
 
Yes that is almost 20 minutes of staring at PEPE!!!
 
I got to go to the after party and when the cameras are put away and the crowd is a little smaller, Pepe relaxes a bit and I heard him laugh a couple of times.  What a great laugh.  Wish I had that on video.
 
Anyway, I had the best time.  So much fun.  It was totally worth the 2 1/2 hour delay of my plane because of the crazy rain in Houston Sunday morning and the tired 2 year old that I sat next to on the plane.  I would do it all again just to be there.
 
AND I brought home books!
 
I have two giveaways going on right now for OPAL.  One is INT for a signed copy here.  One is US/CA for a copy that's not signed here.
 
My other signed copy that I'm giving away will be one of the prizes in the JLA Readathon on December 28th, 29th & 30th!  If you haven't signed up to participate, I'm thinking you might want to!  Brought home some swag too!  That's for the readathon as well.  Sign-up here.

The twitter party will be open to ANYONE and will be December 28th 7:00PM EST.  No sign-up required.

  8. 20 minutes of staring at Pepe? Sounds like time well spent to me. Wow, it would be so amazing to actually meet JLA. I can't seem to get these jealous panties off. Sigh...

    1. He's the model on the cover's of the Lux series books and he's come to represent Daemon from the books! Totally gorgeous guy that these pics do not do justice to at all.
