So to the last full day of the Convention. Looking back, I think this was one of the best ones I’ve been to, although this is only my third. The hotel was a good choice, although a bit spread out, campus style, the convention center was magnificent, and the events went smoothly. I spent most of this convention talking, networking and meeting people.
I was immensely flattered to find how many people sought me out to say hello, and that culminated in my most successful booksigning yet. I had three books to sign, and they went very well. I sold out of one title, Sunfire. So thanks for that, everyone who came and bought one or just came to say hello.
I was exhausted afterward, but in a nice way, so after a break to recuperate, I went along to the Mr. Romance contest. Better than last year, smoother and very well presented. I could have done with a tad more bare male chest, but the models this year were charming and there was none of the insanity that marred last year’s event (you think I was kidding? Look it up). Unfortunately my choice, Jimi Gaskin, didn’t win, but the winner was a worthy Charles Paz, who has been smiling all week and will probably smile a lot more before he’s done. He gets a trip to New York to pose for the cover of a Dorchester novel, so it will be fun to spot Charles posing down when the book comes out!
So, Mr. Romance – here they are!
