BookExpo America 2013

In one week and one day, I leave for New York City. YOU GUYS. I am filled with this nervous and bubbly energy. There’s something about New York City that does that to me. I love this city so much – there’s so much possibility and I feel like amazing things always happen every time I visit.
I’m not going just to explore and enjoy the city, however. I’m going to BookExpo America for my third year. And I am so stoked! I can’t wait to meet new faces and chat about books with everyone!
I’ll be on the floor throughout the convention (obviously) and I’ll be at the children’s author breakfast – which is so worth it, so if tickets aren’t sold out, you should get one! And I’ll be at different publisher events throughout the week. OH and I’ll be at the Book Blogger Picnic that Alexa and a few others are throwing. More details here!
So tell me – are you going? I want to know who I’m going to meet! And if you see my face, definitely come and say hi!
If you’re not going, you can follow me on Twitter and/or Instagram for updates and photos!
Here’s my face, FYI:

Me! Oooh, me! I’m going!
It’s my first time at BEA and my first time in NYC, so I’m doubly excited. I’m not going to the breakfast, but I’ll be on the floor and I’ll be at the blogger picnic.
Are you going to the Teen Author Carnival? I’m going with Gillian Berry (Writer of Wrongs), Rachel (from Rachel Reads), Jess (Read My Breath Away), and Hannah (The Girl in a Cafe). It’d be awesome to hang out! :)

I’ll be there! It’s my first time going, and I’ll be at the Children’s Author Breakfast too. I’m so psyched!

I’m not going to BEA (sadly) but I’ll be participating in the Armchair BEA. Hopefully I’ll be able to go next year. Have fun! It’s going to be really exciting.

All of these BEA posts are making me a) super jealous and b) super excited for everyone who does get to go. I can’t wait to hear how your third time attending went!
