MIA

Sorry I've been MIA.  Obviously I've been tweaking the blog, I'm still not sure how I like the ad placements.  I just don't want them to overtake the blog.  It's like when I make my alfredo sauce, I can't seem to find that happy balance!

I have been reading up a storm.  I cannot believe how many book I've read so far.  Half of them I can't even keep track of.  I really should keep a list of what I've read (although, it's on Goodreads).  With notes of what I liked and didn't like!  I really stink at trying to review a book I read a month ago!  I just can't remember what I read!  You know how everything starts to blur together?  Yeah, that's my brain right now.  blurred!

I'm heading to BEA in nine days!  This will be my third year there and I'm totally excited.  I'm going to be heading out with Janet Gurtler, author of  I'm not Her.  I haven't read it yet.  In fact, I don't even have a copy, but I did read her first book, Waiting to Score.  My review is here. There are so many things to do while in NYC.  I've been invited to so many things, my head is literally spinning!  I'm really thinking I want to see a show while there.  I'd love to see Daniel Radcliffe in How to succeed in business without really trying. I'll just have to see what I can get tickets for!  It's going to be a jam-packed week!


ETA:  How can I forget that I'm also meeting up with Shana Silver too!  I'm so excited to see her again!  I don't think I've seen her since she got married.  And now she has a great, new agent!  I'm just so excited to see her.  She's amazing!

I hope to get reviews written and books mailed out soon.  I've been terrible with that!  I think I'm allergic to the post office! (not really, I just avoid it like the plague!)

Oh, oh, oh, one more thing-- Monday at the Library we hosted Mark Peter Hughes of Lemonade Mouth fame.  We had a great time and I took a ton of pictures (most are of my daughter with him!).  I'm going to be blogging about that too.  One cool thing is he converted his old minivan into the Lemonade Mouth machine!  Once I can get the pictures off the camera (can't find the cord!), I'm going to post them.  We had a great turnout and the kids were so excited to meet him.  Unless you've been hiding under a rock,  Lemonade Mouth has premiered on Disney Channel (and I swear, I've seen it all the times they've played it!).

I hope everyone is enjoying a relaxing spring after a very taxing winter! (especially if you're in the northeast!)
