It's not often you get to see a dream come true unfold right before your eyes.
But it happened this May in the beautiful and historic New Orleans as the city played host to the first annual Booklovers. Con 2019!!
It was great to see old friends and meet new at this more intimate conference that truly brought together authors and readers in a splendid array of dinners, small events, workshops, and social times, still leaving time to get together and visit!
From the spectacular evening events, the Fantasy & Faery Gathering, the Voodoo Vampire Club, and BLC Book Bash-- there was no end to the wonderful food, music, dancing, books and swag shared!!
