BEA 2010 Wannabe

People who write books, blog about books, sell books, or do Anything Books go to Book Expo America every May (in New York, usually). And here I am sitting at my computer affectionately named Spunkie II, with trees swaying outside my window. It’s May. And the trees I’m looking at are NOT in New York. And that means one thing and one thing only: I. Am. Not. At. Book Expo America This. Year. Waaah! I’m following all the tweets from my Rocky Mountain Book Bloggers list, and I just Shouldn’t Have Looked. But really, I’m dealing with it rather well. I put a handful of chocolate chips in my warm oatmeal this morning and stirred it all in before I ate it warm, syrupy and that’s-alright-dear delicious.

And, I’m sending out a prayer to a very loving Father in Heaven that I will not only be there next year, but I’ll be sitting behind a table signing books, AND speaking at the DIY Conference AND the Children’s Author Breakfast. There. It’s as good as done. (How’s that for faith?)

Are you having fun without me MawBooks girl Natasha? Or PoseySessions? Or AngieBookGirl? I hope you’re thinking of me fondly, if only because I am a local to you author who taps away fast and furious on Spunkie II with diligence, dedication, and in many a bath-robed moment. I’m sure you are . . . ;) Seriously though, I’m right where I need to be right now. I’m on the Lord’s time, not mine. Right now that means I need to be here, right where I am. Everything always has a way of working out. Instead, I’m going to put up a post with pictures from my trip to Scotland with hubbie in 2008 where we saw J.K. Rowling walking with with her mom 10 feet away from us on Easter Sunday, the 23 of March. I even have the time emblazoned in my brain.
