Unfortunately, I didn't get as many pictures of me as I would have liked, because it's terribly hard to take a good picture of one's self. But I did get many pictures of my fellow authors. And if anyone else turns out to have a good shot of me, I'll probably steal it... ;-)
So, here they are:
This is Terri Clark at the Literacy Signing, where they had both her anthology and some early-printed copies of her debut novel, Sleepless, which doesn't come out until September. And I got a copy! Next to her is Tera Lynn Childs, whom I met in April at RT, and on Terri's other side was Rosemary Clement Moore. All three YA authors together! I was so jealous! ;-)
This is Jocelynn Drake holding up her poster of Nightwalker, her debut novel. It was her first big signing, and she could not stop smiling!
This is Brooke Taylor, my RWA chaptermate. Her debut, Undone, didn't make it to the signing, and I know she was disappointed, but she had some really amazing post cards to hand out.
This is my agency mate, Jenna Black, signing two of her books and handing out some really amazing goodies!
This is my agent Miriam Kriss and me at the Harlequin party on Friday night. I'm not much of a partier, and you can't really tell it from this picture, but I'm actually wearing a dress! What you probably can tell from this picture is that I was completely exhausted by this point, after two straight weeks of conferences. But I had fun, and no one serves dessert like Harlequin. They had mini creme brulee, served in fancy spoons!
This is Teri Brown (author of Read My Lips) and me, in the room she shared with Brooke. Teri and I have been blog buddies since I first started my blog. She was one of my very first online friends, and we snagged our agents about a week apart, so I really feel like we started on this journey to publication together. It was great to finally meet her in person!
This one's just for fun. This is P.C. Cast's cappuccino, served during dessert at the wonderful Italian restaurant where our editor (She and I are both edited by Mary Theresa Hussey.) took us and P.C.'s daughter Kristin. The cappuccino was so pretty I wouldn't let her stir it until I'd taken a picture. ;-)
Okay, that's it for the pictures, unless I stumble on some that I didn't take. Now for the giveaway...
I have two copies of The Mammoth Book of Vampire Romance, to which I contributed a fun, weird little story about an alternate universe in which everyone is a vampire. My copies have the US cover, and they're only signed by me. Because though I took them to SF, I totally forgot to track down the other authors and make them sign for me.
If you'd like a copy, leave me a comment in this post before 11:59 pm (central) on Thursday, August 7. I'll draw two winners at random and announce the names on Friday.

I'd love to read all those different vampire romance stories. I saw the book at the store but winning it just seems more fun than buying it.

Enjoyed your pics!!! Love Vamps!!! Please count me in....Thanks!!! Cara
That's an awesome cappuccino.
Oh, on your advice about my husband being allergic to cats: we've discovered that he's really only been around female cats. I'm trying to find someone we know that has a male cat that he can spend the afternoon with. *crosses fingers*
(If this post happens twice, I apologize. My Internet attacked my computer.)
Looks like you had a great time! All the pictures are great but I think my favorite is the heart in the cappuccino (no offense, I just think it's cool). Please count me in for the giveaway.

Count me in, too, vampire romance fan.
Great pictures, Rachel. I love a good cappucino, though that one looks too pretty and neat, you'd almost hate to stir or take that first sip.
You know, I went to the bookstore when this first came out, and they didn't have a single copy... They were "ordering" them, which could take forever. I can't tell you how happy I am that you are having a drawing now!
I would love to sink my teeth into a copy!
F.Y.I. Nice pics!
