Mel's Shopping Diary
Book Expo This Week!
May 27, 2008Just a reminder that I’ll be signing books at BEA this year for Hyperion and Simon and Schuster.
The Hyperion signing, where we will be giving out copies of the chapter samplers of REVELATIONS, is this Friday (May 30th) at 2PM. I will be at Table Four in the Autographing Area.
For Simon and Schuster I will be signing copies of The Ashleys: Jealous? on Sunday (June 1) at 10:30 AM at Table Fourteen in the Autographing Area.
So come see me--and lots of other awesome authors--Sherman Alexie, Neil Gaiman, etc are all going to be at the expo!
xoxo
Mel

Oh, that sounds like SO much fun! I wish i could come but I live on the East Coast.... I hope it’s as fab as it sounds!!!!! It sounds perfect with so many authors and books AND freebies!
When you mention “chapter samplers” do you mean that people will be getting different random chapters and not all just Chapter 1 that will posted next month
It would be awesome (and maybe confusing) to recieve a chapter that is smack in the middle of all the drama!

The chapter samplers are the first 4 chapters. And Melissa has already announced she will release Chapter 1 through her mailing list and the Blue Bloods forums (z13.invisionfree.com/Blue_Bloods). Be sure to sign up for both. =]]

Okay so I checked my e-mail like fifty times today hoping to get the first chapter of Revelations. The bad thing is that I didn’t get anything lol. I totally remember Ms. Cruz(aka Melissa) lol saying somewhere that she would send them out on the 30th. Well maybe I read wrong but that totally ruined my Friday!!! Can anyone tell me when she’s sending them out? Please?
On May 31, 2008 at 7:01 am, Caitlyn had this to say:

^^^ haha i was thinking the same thing. my fav authors hardly ever come to the twin cities (besides stephenie meyer’s of course)
On June 11, 2008 at 4:01 am, Kat had this to say:
OMG. I completely understand the whole thing about authors never coming my direction. Living in VA has it’s ups and downs. One of the downs being that none of the authors I know come in this direction!!! The other down being the Tech incident but lets not talk about that now. I might start crying if I do...maybe…
