Book Festival experience. Some day I hope to get there. I recently went to a book signing by Philippa Gregory in CT. I lucked out--we only waited maybe 5 mins. for her to sign our books (and she did sign more than one). She was delightful to listen to --I enjoyed it immensely. Now cannot wait to read The Other Queen. I enjoy your blog! Jennifer, thank you for sharing your Natl. Book Festival experience. Some day I hope to get there.

It took me all day yesterday to write it (I wanted to spend as much time with my girls, too). I had a great experience as you can see. I hope that others can join in on the fun next year. ____ Swapna, my husband loved what your husband said about Salman Rushdie! :) We're both lucky girls to have such wonderful husbands. ____ Shana, make your husband read this post and Swapna's. He'll bow to the pressure and fulfill his husbandly duty. If not, it's because he's not a Hokie fan! ;) Thank you so much to everyone for leaving a comment to this post.

When I saw it in my reader, I forced myself to wait til the kids were in bed so I could read uninterrupted! I am sooooooo happy that you got to meet Philippa, get your book signed and GET A PICTURE with her. It's gorgeous, you look so happy (and so does Karrie.) And can I just say your husband is a saint?!?! No way would mine have done ANY of that for me. So happy for you, lucky girl! Jennifer, I’ve been waiting for this post all weekend.

You look great in the pictures by the way - your happiness shines through. I know what you mean about gushing - I'm still in awe that authors will take the time to talk to me. They are like rock stars to me. I’m so glad you had a good time! You look great in the pictures by the way – your happiness shines through.
