: Hey all! Sorry to be MIA lately, but I was
: in
: New York City for a big yearly event called
: "Book Expo." It's a huge
: convention for everyone in
: publishing--editors, agents, librarians,
: publishers, authors, you name it. I got to
: see Marcus Zusak speak (awesome Aussie
: accent) and learned from Mo Willems how to
: draw a pigeon. (He writes picture books for
: kids, including "Don't Let the Pigeon
: Drive the Bus.")
:
: I also signed a TON of books for librarians
: and booksellers. During one signing, my
: table was next to the Rain Man (yes, the guy
: the movie is based on) and the other time, I
: was next to Ridley Pearson. Nifty, huh? I
: had my pic taken with Ridley Pearson and
: will get that up on my MySpace and
: LiveJournal blogs soon.
:
: Glad to see so much traffic here, AND that
: most boyfriend emergencies ended up happily.
: (And trust me, sometimes discovering that
: the guy DOESN'T like you is the best thing
: that can happen. Consider it a free ticket
: to find someone much better!!)
:
: you meet ridley pearson??? cool is he nice?
: im jw cause he helped right one of my
: favorite books!
