Reno!!!! Last week was fabulous fun. I arrived in Reno on Wednesday, July 27th. Jill picked me up at the airport and zipped me straight over to the hotel where we sat down for a quick dinner and drink with Kacey and Michelle . Pictured (L to R): Kacey, Jill, me. (Michelle arrived late and missed this pic.)
A room–a suite–with a view!!! Gorgeous mountains and an awesome view of planes taking off and landing at the airport. It was cool.
BEARS!! Jill wasn’t kidding. There ARE bears in the Sierras!!!! Even in the hotel!! I karate-chopped this one before it could eat Kacey. Whew. Good thing I’ve been working out.
The literacy signing was so much fun! I loved seeing so many friends, readers, and writers! Left: the incredible, amazing reader diva Alyssa with her infamous cart! Right: Juanita didn’t have a cart, but look at that fabulous smile!
More friends! Cynthia and her lovely family! And friends made at last year’s Moonlight & Magnolias conference in Atlanta, gorgeous Gena and equally gorgeous LaShon.
Old friends– Mary , and new friends– Loreth .
Famous faces–Teresa Medeiros, and romance icons–Nora Roberts!
Fun friends– Sasha and Sylvia , and shy friends who didn’t want me to take their picture– Kara .

Celebrity stalkings include: Jayne Anne Krentz, Debbie Macomber, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Geralyn Dawson, Suzanne Brockmann, and more! And these are JUST the pictures from Wednesday!

If there isn’t a picture of the author in the back of a book I’m reading, I always wonder what they look like. Your pictures tell me:bananadance:

And her friends Gena and LaShon were so nice and friendly and cool. (I’d never met them before) Heck her other friends were cool and fun too. I think Suzanne just does fun, cool friends. :mrgreen: (and honestly, I’m not just saying that because I’m one of her fun, cool friends… :mrgreen: :rotfl: )

Your pictures here are great. I still have to look at your other ones but since I haven’t slept yet I’d better get to bed before I turn my internal clock completely upside down. It’s pretty well there again. It always happens when I have to clear up some mess on the computer: freezing, virus, etc. No matter how careful I am, it just keeps happening.
Did you get to meet Suz Brockmann? Just wondered. I’m going to be starting “Breaking Point” (her newest) today.
Hope you’re all set again at home.:???:
