GRL ’14 and Me – In Pictures

This was my first GRL and well I might have taken a few too many pictures, but I had a great time and I wanted to share a few (yes, there are way more than these).  The videos didn’t fit in the gallery so I added them at the end.

 

J.P. Found a new way to draw attention to me. It was. . .interesting to have this happen all the time. 😀

Seeing Amy Lane at the signing, well, we got a bit carried away.

For those of us lucky enough to get one of the coveted Supporting (me) or Featured (not me) Author places at Gay Rom Lit (GRL) – one of the perks is that we got to do an excerpt book that will be given away to all GRL participants. They can use this book to collect signatures from most of the authors in attendance. Continue reading Cover Reveal – GRL Chicago Excerpt Book
