"Behind the Scenes" #3 Back from RT

So the Romantic Times convention was mind-blowing on many levels.

Some highlights:

-Meeting great, fabulous, talented and wonderous new people.
-Interviewing famous authors and having cocktails with many more.
-Fabulous pitch-sessions with high-profile editors.
-Dressing up.
- Lots of fun with fangs! My Maverick, Mancusi & Me favorites:






















(Made me miss my old Dracula days in the theatre...)
-For more particulars on Fun with Fangs, Marianne Mancusi has now posted the rest of her pictures of our veritable fun with fangs performance art piece on her blog.


-Buying more books than I could afford or carry.


-Meeting the owners of my publisher, Crescent Moon Press and attending their Publisher's Spotlight. Congratulations on the launch, Crescent Moon!

















-Great live music by The Impalers causing an incredible air-guitar solo by myself and Liz Maverick that had people inquiring if we had fallen and we couldn't get up.


- My kick-butt boots won me a toaster oven. Random. But I needed one. A toaster, I mean.


















-And... Fabio ain't lookin' half bad:


















That's all for now! I'll be posting new updates on DARK NEST soon!

  1. The way the photo was taken makes it look like Fabio has a halo over his head...

  2. LOL oh wow. He totally does. After that picture of you and Liz, I'm sure 'halo' doesn't come to mind. :)

  3. Thanks, and glad you're enjoying the book. Yeah, RT was super. I decided live my vampire in pleather look so much, doing it at Ravencon this Saturday.
    I got to stand next to tall Fabio at Military Mixer as my friend, Cathy Maxwell pushed me out there since I was in Army once upon a time. I ended up next to him.
    My fave thing at RT--meeting so many neat people--many I only knew by name or screen name online. it is always great to put the face to the name!
