Today's topic is: Top Ten Bookish People You Want To Meet (Authors, Bloggers, etc.)
I have actually been sitting on this post for awhile because I have been racking my brain over this one. This is a hard choice because who would I really want to meet.
I have been lucky enough to attend two BEA's (Book Expo America) and I have gotten to meet so many bloggers through that as well as authors. So to sit and come up with a list is really hard. Not sure if I will make it to ten but I will give it a shot.
Authors:
- Terry Spears is one author I would love to meet because I have been a fan of her's since I started reading her books. I am always thrilled when I can have her on the blog.
- Andrew McCarthy. I was suppose to meet him during BEA but unfortunetly the event got cancelled. I have been a fan of Andrew's since the 80's and the movies he did.
- Molly Ringwald is another actress turned writer I would love to meet.
- James Patterson. I love his books and I believe twice he has been at BEA and the lines were so long that I gave up.
- Stephanie Chong because she is a Canadian author. I love her two books and missed out on meeting her at BEA this year.
This one is a little harder because I follow so many fantastic blogs. I would love to list you all but I can't but I always look forward to meeting bloggers when I am out at events (author signings or BEA)
- Lori from Pure Imagination she is an awesome blogger
- Kim from Tales of a Ranting Ginger is an awesome Canadian blogger and is always so helpful. She isn't a book blogger but a review blogger and one I look up to in that type of blogging.
- Melissa from The Betty and Boo Chronicles. I missed out on meeting her in 2010 but hopefully when I make a stop in PA in the summer we will get the chance to meet up.
- Angela from Reading Angel is someone I would love to meet one day.
- Molly and Andy from The Bumbles Blog. We were exchange partners and they just seem like awesome people that I would love to meet although I have to admit I do more
stalkingthen commenting on their blog.
Great list, Cindy!
ReplyDeleteWe WILL make it happen! :) Would love to meet you, too! Thanks for the shout-out!
ReplyDeleteI think Molly Ringwald was at this past BEA, but it could have just been her book. I agree with James Patterson, and I can believe his lines to be crazy long.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad we met at BEA and I hope when you go next year you get to meet these other awesome people, though they may not be as awesome as me ;)
Oh, my Andrew! Seriously, next year we are watching a bunch of 80's movies together! Less Than Zero, Pretty in Pink, St. Elmo's Fire... all of Andrew's best! I saw him on tv the other day talking about his travel book. Is it possible that he's still gorgeous? Yes it is!
