Coming off a busy week - still fighting my day-night reversal from DragonCon. THREE back-to-school night meetings this past week, and then yesterday I drove out to Pocono-Lehigh Romance Writers in Easton PA to give a talk on The Mythological Hero. Whew.
Finally got to catch up on my sleep last night :-)
Other good news - found out that I'm a double finalist in New Jersey Romance Writer's Golden Leaf Contest - in the paranormal category for Immortals: The Crossing, and in the Long Contemporary category for A Little Light Magic! :-)
Uploaded all my pictures from DragonCon at last, including men in kilts and men with bare chests. :0)
Check out my complete Joy's DragonCon Album, 49 photos, now up on my Facebook page - not to worry if you're not on Facebook, all and sundry can view the album:
I'm in total Star Trek fangirl mode here at DragonCon. When I wasn't at our dealer booth yesterday talking to readers, I was stalking Star Trek stars :-)
Saw Spock, Kirk, Picard, Janeway, Malcolm McDowell (the evil genius who killed Kirk!) - also secondary characters Harry Kim and Reg Barclay...
But the most fun was the Miss Klingon Empire Beauty Pageant - and running into Miss Klingon Empire 2009 later on the street...
Set up our booth in the Marriott Marquis Ballroom last night, in between wandering around the Marriott gawking at the costumes. Saw a Star Wars Storm Trooper at the bar, numerous pirates and hot men in kilts (a great fantasy for sure!). Zombies are really popular this year - A Zombie Elvis was making the rounds!
And I haven't even gotten to the other hotels yet...
Internet at the hotel is slower than molasses on Mars...So check for pics of our booth on Caridad Pineiro's blog at http://www.caridad.com/blog/
