Kansas City, there I went.
MANIC! That’s the word that springs to mind when I think of the Romantic Times Booklovers Convention, held in Kansas City, Missouri, from which I returned last week. MANIC and FUN!! There was so much on, both day and night, that it’s hard to remember all of the things that I went to. There were three parties/balls/dances every evening to give you a hint of what the week was like.
I went to the event with a team from Choc Lit. To give you an idea of the sort of things we did, and the ambiance of the place, I shall share a few of the photos that I took with you, and I’ll let the pictures and their captions do most of the talking.
I travelled from Heathrow, via Newark Airport, to Kansas City, in the company of two other Choc Lit authors. Here they are in Newark Airport, New Jersey.
Upon arrival at the Sheraton Hotel Crown Center …
And so the fun began.
We were there to promote Choc Lit and to sell our books.
A taste of the Wild West at Rosie Gulch’s Saloon …
Inevitably …
Gearing up for another day…
There were workshops. Some we gave, some we attended. A fun Choc Lit workshop, organised by Juliet Archer, tested the readers about their knowledge of Pride & Prejudice. With chocolate and cover models, of course. There was even an interview with Mr. Darcy at the end!
I ought to show you a glimpse of two of Kansas City.
Farewell from Kansas City!
See you next week, when I blog from the RNA Summer Party. Yes, with pics!
