This is the last installment of RT Con 2008 since there are only two days left.Saturday, 19 April 2008 THE BOOK FAIR A huge room full of tables where authors sit (or stand) and wait for eager readers (and some writers) so pounce on them for books and autographs. This …
It’s about time I finished writing about this since I want to do my write-up of the Lori Foster Get Together. 🙂 So, without further ado… the rest of my RT Con experience.Thursday, 17 April 2008 From 9:30am – 10:30am, I sat at the Samhain Club RT table, which was …
