Aaand We’re Back!
Well, ladies and gentlemen, Austin was a blast!
I'm delighted to report that there wasn't a single disaster, fiasco, or catastrophe and all the Texan librarians I met were sweet as peaches! We hosted some fantastic author events and signings. A huge thanks to C.C. Hunter, Jason Goodwin, David Levithan, Linda Castillo, Jonathan Maberry, and John Scalzi for joining us in the booth and on our discussion panels.
Talia got the opportunity to chat about her favorite upcoming Spring titles during the publishers' Book Buzz event and she also hosted a riotous adult mystery panel. Our old buddy Ben hosted Beyond Earth's Boundaries, a sci-fi panel that turned into a thorough discussion about the function and nature of genre.
We gave away a ton of stellar galleys at the booth, the most fun of which were the YA ARCs picked up by high schoolers on Teen Day. And after all that? We were (and still are) exhausted!
Our schedule may have been jam-packed with TxLA awesomeness, but don't worry, we still managed to grab some amazing carnitas tacos and a pile of the most delicious ribs I'll ever have the pleasure of inhaling.

We're off to Texas on Monday for TxLA 2011!
It may get a little quiet around the blog, but worry not! We'll be back the week of the 18th with crazy stories and pictures, no doubt.
If you're heading down to Austin, as well, make sure you find us and say, hi! Our full schedule of events and booth information is all in this article. We're giving away a lot of really great galleys and we'd love the chance the chat with you about any and all of them.
The rest of you will need to curl up on the couch with a good book and try not to miss us too much.
Emergency phone numbers are on the fridge.
