Well, writer mamas, this is about as exciting as it gets…
BookExpo America. The largest publishing event in the country. Talk about exciting.
I fly out in two weeks!
I’ll get to see my agent, Rita Rosenkranz, my editors, Jane Friedman and Michelle Ehrhart, meet my publicist, Greg Hatfield, and of course all of the other Writer’s Digest Book authors and Writer’s Digest Magazine contributors, who will be attending. Yahoo!
I also get to meet my brother’s girlfriend Kate (finally), who works for a publisher back East. Yay!
Any Broadway show recommendations for me? Anyone seen anything not to be missed lately?
Wicked! you HAVE to see “Wicked”! I wish I was going!!!!
Oh, Wicked, without a doubt. If you’ve already seen that, then The Lion King. Both are equally wonderful and breathtaking. I’ve got dozens of other suggestions, too, so feel free to ask! Musical theatre is one of my greatest passions, along with writing/editing, and I run a musicals site/blog (All About Musicals: http://musicals.temlynwriting.com).
By the way, I’m going to NYC during the summer, and I can’t wait to see another show! We’re currently narrowing down our choices. My husband and I are season ticket holders here in Houston, and I cannot get enough musical theatre! My dream was to star on Broadway, and since I can’t do that right now, I write about it and live vicariously that way!
