The Book Blogger Convention has never felt more close than it does today!  I want to extend a big welcome to those of you who may be visiting my small corner of the blogosphere as a result of the wonderful piece Shelf Awareness published.  I’m thankful to Shannon Mckenna- Schmidt for taking the time to speak with Trish, myself and a variety of others about our event it certainly makes us proud and excited.  Elated really!

In an attempt to leech off of their graciousness I’m going to put my publicity hat on today and pimp out the Book Blogger Convention.  This may turn into more of a list of links than anything else, but rest assured full details can be found on the Book Blogger Convention website.

I’ll start by saying that anyone and everyone is welcome to join us we’d love to have you!  Blogger, author, publisher, publicity representative, anyone in the industry, heck anyone at all, can attend.  We’ve got an amazing agenda scheduled with fabulous speakers and presenters.  It will be an educational and fun day.

Registration for the whole shabang is $115 and that gets you access to the Thursday reception and Friday convention.  The deadline for registration is May 20th so please do head on over to the BBC registration form and fill it out if you’re interested in attending.

If, you are unable to join us for the whole day Friday but still want to participate at some level we encourage you to register for attendance at just the Thursday evening reception.  For $20 you get to mix and mingle with a great variety of people. To register to attend this event only please hop on over to the Reception Attendance form.

We’re excited to be hosting the reception, having a charity raffle, and are giving away some awesome swag.  If you’re interested in contributing to any (or all) of those opportunities please feel free to read more about it in our BBC blog post or contact us at bookbloggercon@gmail.com.

These are all the highlights, but by no means is it all of the information related to the Book Blogger Convention, I encourage you to visit our blog to learn more.

Once again a giant thank you for visiting me and tremendous gratitude to Shelf Awareness for providing us wonderful press coverage.  We’re most appreciative!

We hope to see you in May!
