Love N. Vegas Convention
Get your planners and washi tape out, because the Love N. Vegas Convention is coming to Vegas October 27-29! It's going to be at Planet Hollywood with loads of author signings, meet and greets, parties, the works. As a book convention vet, I thought I'd share some tips on how to survive (for those who are attending their first one) a book convention.
Do: Plan! Look at the schedule and see who is signing when. It's important, especially if certain authors lap each other. If this happens, think about who you love more and go to that one first.
Do: Get to everything early. If you're wanting to go to a certain signing at a certain time, be sure to get there early and snag a spot in line. Waiting until it starts is not a good idea. If you love the author, chances are others do as well, and the line will be a mile long (meaning you might miss other signings in the process.
Don't: Cut in line. You guys, I've had this done to me, and it sets me off. This is my biggest pet peeve. Whenever we were in Anaheim for ALA, a mom held the front of the line spot for not one, not two, not three, but almost a dozen teenage girls. It wasn't even Teen Day! This was when the booths gave away their display copies, and those girls took EVERYTHING we wanted. It didn't matter that we were there a couple of hours early. It happened, and it was the WORST! I also had a friend who missed out on a DESTROY ME arc/signing with Tahereh Mafi all because people were cutting in line. Don't be that person!
What To Bring: Most conventions have an area where you can check luggage in. See if they have one here. If so, bring an empty suitcase that rolls. It works PERFECTLY for all of the books since you can check the suitcase in and out as you go. There's no point in having back problems when you can easily roll your books away. A backpack is also something nice to bring as well. You can fill it up with books for signings and drop them off in your suitcase later. Also, bring a water bottle. There's always a fountain somewhere where you can refill. No one enjoys spending money on overpriced bottled water! Also, bring a snack! Again, overpriced food? No thanks.
What To Wear: It's important to be both comfortable but also dressed accordingly. My go-to outfit happens to be a pair of leggings, a nice/fun top paired with a cardigan (those convention centers are almost always COLD), and comfortable shoes that were made for walking in. Flip flops are a don't for me. I've done it, and the lack of support will kill your feet and back later. Toms, Adidas, and Converse are my personal favorites. My MO happens to be fun socks. Who doesn't love fun socks?
Go To Authors: Let's be honest, we all have our go to authors. Mine happen to be Laini Taylor, Colleen Hoover, Miranda Kenneally, Katja Millay, and Stephanie Perkins. If I hear they're in town or close, I'm there. If they're at a convention I'm at, I will stalk the living daylights out of their line. If you're not first, you're last (kidding but still).
Be sure to check out Las Vegas Travel Deals for the best deals in town. I'll actually be in Vegas soon and will have some recommendations posted once I get back! Food + books = life.

FINANCIAL BREAKTHROUGH
DeleteLife indeed is GRACE, I'am Daan Sophia currently in California USA. I would like to share my experience with you guys on how I got a loan of $185,000.00 USD to clear my bank draft and start up a new business. It all started when i lost my home and belongings due to the bank draft I took to offset some bills and some personal needs. I became so desperate and began to seek for funds at all means. Luckily for me I heard a colleague of mine talking about this company, I got interested although i was scared of being scammed, I was compelled by my situation and had no choice than to seek advise from my friend regarding this very company and was given their contact number, getting intouch with them really made me skeptical due to my past experience with online lenders, little did i know this very Company "PROGRESSIVE LOAN INC. was a godsent to me and my family and the entire Internet World, this company has been of great help to me and some of my colleague and today am a proud owner of well organized business and responsibilities are well handled all thanks to Josef Lewis of (progresiveloan@yahoo.com).. So if really you are genuinely in need of a loan either to expand or start up your own business or in any form of financial difficulty, i advise you give Mr Josef Lewis of Progressive loan the opportunity of financial upliftment in your life Email: progresiveloan@yahoo.com OR Call/Text +1(603) 786-7565 and not fall victim of online scam in the name of getting a loan. thanks

Omg I Finally Got Helped !! I'm so excited right now, I just have to share my testimony on this Forum.. The feeling of being loved takes away so much burden from our shoulders. I had all this but I made a big mistake when I cheated on my wife with another woman and my wife left me for over 4 months after she found out.. I was lonely, sad and devastated. Luckily I was directed to a very powerful spell caster Dr Emu who helped me cast a spell of reconciliation on our Relationship and he brought back my wife and now she loves me far more than ever.. I'm so happy with life now. Thank you so much Dr Emu, kindly Contact Dr Emu Today and get any kind of help you want.. Via Email emutemple@gmail.com or Call/WhatsApp +2347012841542

ReplyDeleteGet the clients confidence and approval through his eyes. Well, if I am to be asked eyes make the best of the decisions. Once an object or project, considering the blog context, comes in the contact of your eye you end up forming an opinion about it, right? Well a fully rendered architectural building project makes its own place in the customers' brain via his eyes. Nothing remains unknown about the yet to be constructed structure. This wholeheartedly acceptance of an imaginary building becomes possible only due to the creativity involved in the rendering process. photo booth
