Last year I ran a series of advice on things I learned from attending Book Expo America and this year I'll add to it. I"m still waiting to hear if I can go from my boss. But I'm hoping to go.
Planning never works out exactly, but it's good to have a general idea. There are people who will wait in line for 2 hours to see that one person they want to see. So when you walk over there 20 minutes before the signing, the line might be out of control. Be prepared for that, because it's GOING to happen. So have a couple back-up ideas instead of just wondering around aimlessly (although that can be good too)
Luckily, Nicole Brinkley created something fabulous for the YA people...and she shared it on Twitter.
ICYMI, I compiled a mass list of all the #yalit events announced so far at BEA. Good morning. http://bit.ly/1lGURWX
It's so nice when people take the time to organize things like this and share it.
