Elizabeth North – Andrew Q. Gordon

Selfies From Orlando

Every year Dreamspinner Press has an Workshop for its authors. Each year more and more people attend. Last year, in Portland, I started taking selfies with people. So I continued the ‘tradition’ this year.

Not the best of me, but J.P. Barnaby looks great!

Amy DiMartino looking wonderful

Amy Lane agreed to be seen with me. (Yes she’s that lovely!)

Amy and Kim Fielding showing off.

The ‘tradition’ continues – Shae Connor and I.

You’ve made it when you’re in a selfie with Rick R. Reed.

K.C. Wells is a brave woman being in so many pictures with me.

Grace R. Duncan was stepping out in style so I needed a picture.

Thankfully Lex Chase looks good, cause I look stupid in this one.

Eden Winters – is such a wonderful person.

So SJD Peterson and I aren’t that orange in real life, the lighting sucked, but that is SO JO! Always smiling.

Rhys Ford let me interrupt for another selfie.

Taking a selfie with ‘the man’ Damon Suede.

The very ‘wicked’ Lynn West.

Just because she’s fabulous – another one with Amy.

Poppy Denison and I finally chatted, so i needed a picture.

One of my favorite people, Wade Kelly. This is so her, always upbeat and happy.

Ha, poor Poppy, I cornered her for another one.

The new ‘tradition’ photo – Elizabeth North, K.C. and I. We took this last year, but this one is better.

Last year and at GRL Lane Hayes avoided my camera, this year we got our picture.

Charlie Cochet still as lovely as ever.

But the coming home one with my best girl is still my favorite.

Holiday Blog Event: Elizabeth North – Christmas And Pokemon

Andrew invited me to participate in his holiday event, providing the theme of family and kids. My mind immediately ran to the myriad of experiences a mother of four has after spending 20+ years “holiday-ing” with her kids.

Josh’s first Christmas, when a roomful of twenty adults sat looking at each other from six a.m. until noon because the one-year-old was still asleep and a mother never wakes a sleeping baby.
The year PJ (3) and the cat curled up in matching boxes and feel asleep under the tree.
The first year Asia (18) brought a male guest to Christmas morning and my husband felt the immediate need to clean all his guns at the kitchen table.
The year the dog got tangled in the Christmas lights, panicked and ran out the door and off into the woods dragging the tree.

If I could provide video, I would have probably chosen one of these stellar moments in my Mommy-memory, but since this is text only, you get the story of Coby and Pokemon cards. Continue reading Holiday Blog Event: Elizabeth North – Christmas And Pokemon
