So Friday night while perusing twitter, I saw a retweet of this tweet from Julie Kagawa and immediately was like, CINCI, WHAT THE WHAT?! So I clicked, realized it was Saturday at 1, and decided to go! This is the first time I’ve heard of anything awesome coming to Ohio. I got to see Julie again, as well as meeting Mindee Arnett, Aprilynn Pike, Liz Coley, Kristina McBride, and Saundra Mitchell. I learned some cool stuff like how they feel about reviews (of course they hate the negative ones, and most of them avoid reading them all together), who their favorite characters to write are (Julie said Ash & GRIM – :D – and more recently, Jackal!), and movie rights. I asked a question to win a prize – and while I wanted Julie’s little clay dragon MORE THAN LIFE ITSELF, Saundra demanded that only the authors choose what to give, and the audience had no say in it (I practically begged for the dragon, it was embarrassing). So, I got Defy the Dark. *le sigh* Then, because everyone wanted it, they did a raffle for it as well as a mini clay Allie (Immortal Rules). I did not win either of those raffles. Not gonna lie, I was very disappointed. But it was still totally awesome to see Julie again! AND she drew me an adorable Grim (which Saundra drew over, so I had to go back and get another non-messed up one). Also, I got the chance to redeem myself – I brought the copies I had previously and forgot to bring to the Memphis signing (learn about that debacle HERE). So, the second giveaway in that recap post is now for a complete SIGNED Iron Fey series :)

  1. So much signed goodness! I really need to keep an eye out for author signings! I live in the middle of nowhere though, so I’d have to travel quite a bit to even get to a bookstore…

  2. All I have left to say is
    HOLY EFFING CRAP YOU MET JULIE AGAIN? AND MINDEE AND APRILYNNE PIKE AND LIZ COLEY? AND YOU GOT DEFY THE DARK? YOU’RE KILLING ME DUDE. AND ALL THE SIGNED SWAG! And enjoy Linked~ And the obviously gorgeous moth Anita drew for ya ;D

  3. Am totally jealous. I want THE NIGHTMARE AFFAIR and DEFY THE DARK so flippin’ bad and I’m on book lockdown until I finish edits. And Ilsa Bick has a new novel?! Gah!! Am SO preordering that.

    Hope you enjoy FIND ME!

  4. DANG GIRL. That’s a beautiful sight there! I hope you LOVE all the books! That’s so cool to have met Julie twice now!!!! She sounds so cool! I can’t wait to read Iron King this week for the Readathon! Happy Reading!!

  5. I’m so jealous you got to meet so many amazing authors! I’m reading The Iron Daughter at the moment and loved The Immortal Rules so can’t believe you’ve gotten to meet Julie twice now! This is a downside of living in the UK :(
    Happy reading!

  6. What awesome spoils! Very jealous :-)

    I loooooved The Nightmare Affair and actually had my own giveaway with a signed copy of the book but it wouldn’t be kosher for me to enter my own giveaway :-) So glad you have one that I can enter hehe. Can’t wait to get my hands on The Nightmare Dilemma too! :-)

    I have never met an author I have read a book from in person. All the books you have look awesome! I’m jealous.
