Start Spreading The News

I was thinking of channeling the illustrious Frank Sinatra and singing all of New York, New York to you via video but then I thought better of that. I think all save *everyone* the agony of that debacle and just check in with this post instead.
I have arrived NYC!
Not only have I arrived, but I’ve arrived in style y’all!
Check out the view from the window of our hotel room:
Isn’t that fab? Want another one?
Ok, ok….still not convinced? Her ya go….
Pretty cool right? Wanna know what else is cool? This place has speakers that pipe the volume from the television into the bathroom. Funny thing is I had no idea what the hell was going on when I went in and started hearing voices, LOL. Still, kinda awesome that I can shower and listen to the morning news at the same time with very little fuss.
So, as you can tell, BEA/BBC week has commenced for me. What does this mean for this blog? Well, I hope to post updates as much as possible. But if you’ve been following me on Twitter you already know that my schedule is pretty chock-full-o-stuff-to-do. I’ll likely Twitpic more than post but still, I’ll do my best to do at least a couple of highlight posts. This way you all can share in on the experience and fun!
Have a great week all

So jealous! I wish I was going to be at BEA. Your hotel is in the best location. What hotel is that (for my future NYC visits)?

It was great meeting you this past week! You definitely had a much better view than I. All I could see was the large, totally non-decorative side wall of the Port Authority.

Michelle,
It was such a pleasure meeting you this weekend. BBC ran without a hitch! So many great panels, so much great advice. As a Luddite writer dipping her toe into the cyberspace pool, I felt capable of dog-paddling with all you strong swimmers. As a reader, boy! What a treasure trove of sites to visit!
Thanks so much,
Helen Ellis
