One of the coolest things about all the travel is getting to meet other authors, like James Preller and Paul Griffin . . .
During the FAME conference our friend Tracy had some exciting news -- Cindi Lauper was in the building! Since Tracy is a HUGE Cindi Lauper fan, she thought of a brilliant way to meet her . . . give the singer a book. And why not? Girls just want to have fun, right?
Oh! And I don't want to forget this -- I signed my first iPad as seen HERE . . .
Why, look! Here I am with Roland Smith and Gordon Korman again. We're all part of the Scholastic Family and the three of us were signing at the Scholastic Book Fairs booth . . .
Hey, Lisa, what's that you're holding? Why, it's a special Book Fairs paperback version of WARP SPEED!
The Book Fairs bunch was so enthusiastic. However, they confused the FAME conference with this FAME . . .
. . . and would periodically break out dancing . . .
(Or perhaps they thought they were starring in the remake of Footloose? I can totally see them starring in the movie, can't you?)
All too soon it was back to the airport. We shared a ride with author David Macinnis Gill and librarian Cecelia Solomon was kind enough to drive us . . .
