This will most likely be my last trip (just getting too expensive--hotel room wise), so it's nice going out with a bang! :) But yeah, it's huge. HUGE! Over 70K people attended last year.Stacy McKitrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07898731847653710759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917316172488329464.post-13158013852006921502017-07-19T12:25:23.027-04:002017-07-19T12:25:23.027-04:00Congratulations!

UNSUB is the beginning of a series (and it was picked up by CBS even!). China Lake was her first and the book Stephen King read and wrote about, getting her noticed. I went to high school with Meg and didn't know she wrote until I read King's article. I've read everything she's written now. So yeah, I'd start with China Lake.Stacy McKitrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07898731847653710759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917316172488329464.post-29690562867631093312017-07-19T10:05:06.890-04:002017-07-19T10:05:06.890-04:00I'll have to remember Gardiner's name.

Is there any one book of hers you'd recommend most?<br /><br />re: panel<br />Congrats! Be sure to have one of your books with you on the panel, so you can show it off when they introduce you. :)Maria Zanninihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01604862636922299273noreply@blogger.com
