For those who are heading to Atlanta this weekend for DragonCon, I wanted to give you a head's up as to where you can see me speak or get me to sign. I'll have copies of SMOKED on hand - as well as copies of Scorched and Shattered and also Gamer Girl and The Camelot Code.
And, most importantly, COSTUMES!!!

I will also be selling/signing books at the Tairen's Lair booth in the vendor area. This is located at 1223 and 1225 in America's Mart by the Westin. I will be there a lot when I'm not paneling, but I have some specific times I will DEFINITELY be there if you want to make sure to catch me.
Friday 1-4pm.
Saturday: 10-11:30, 2:30-4:30pm
Sunday: TBA
Monday 1-2pm 4-4:30pm
If you can't make any of those times but you still want to meet up to get a book, you can always PM me on Facebook or tweet me on Twitter and we can arrange a meet up.
Also, in case you're just looking for me in the crowd, I may be in disguise! I'm doing the following costumes while there:
Princess Celestia from My Little Pony
Cinderella (live action version)
Elsa from Frozen (with my partner in crime Sub Zero from Mortal Kombat)
Queen Cersei from Game of Thrones (with my brother Jamie)
Violet from American Horror Story Season One, Murder House (With my partner in crime, Tate)
SEE YOU THERE!!
