(ahem)<br /><br />Lori - yes, I love going to my friends' book signings/launches as well, it's great fun. And I'd love to get to a conference in the US some day, they sound awesome!Christina Courtenayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03647397808446248913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3762860554634548712.post-46425298879369947152011-04-14T17:20:00.382-04:002011-04-14T17:20:00.382-04:00I love that feeling, Christina.

I'll be attending a friend's book signing (author Ann Shorey) on Saturday when she visits our town, having lunch with her and friends beforehand. Whenever my published friends are in town for a signing, I always make time to join them. Another pal is the person in charge of the signings and such at the store. It's just a fun, inspiring time (on a much smaller scale than a conference of course--wow, that is powerful. Been to a few big ones myself), but so good to spend a few hours with kindred souls. <br /><br />There's a conference going on now down near Santa Cruz, CA that I WISH I was at, and hope to be next year. The Mount Hermon Christian Writers conference. It's where I first met my agent. <br /><br />Congrats on your first signing! I'm sure if I ever have one I'll have those same dumb fears too. I don't know a way to turn that voice off. :)Lori Bentonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04714197239425827339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3762860554634548712.post-17513200185454579462011-04-14T16:14:47.494-04:002011-04-14T16:14:47.494-04:00Brilliant, on both counts!

It was very interesting to see things from both sides as it were. I was on the Choc Lit stand, next to a HUGE box of milk chocolate truffles! Restraining myself from eating them all was the hardest part :DChristina Courtenayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03647397808446248913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3762860554634548712.post-53026158415662429652011-04-14T08:16:24.934-04:002011-04-14T08:16:24.934-04:00I'm so pleased both went well!

The questions that sprang into your mind prior to the event were the very things that I, too, would panic about. <br /><br />I'm glad that the signing, and also the LBF, turned out to be as enjoyable as they did.<br /><br />Liz XLiz Harrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01322513174593505885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3762860554634548712.post-56410226389491518432011-04-14T06:05:33.200-04:002011-04-14T06:05:33.200-04:00What stand were you on at LBF?
