The process of getting ready for #RT16 in Vegas is quite daunting.

Promo display with swag

Because I have a Promo Table, I must bring enough swag to keep it stocked for 3 days. I have 6 big bags of goodies ready (thanks to my fans from Denver!), plus the large display.

Vegas Seminar

MrRed and I have been spending hours and hours going over our seminar that we are presenting on Sunday. Full of laughter and (lucky me!) hands-on practice.

I also have all the books, book stands, displays and extra material for the signing Saturday AND Sunday. Yikes!

Then there’s the “What am I wearing for a week of panels and parties?”

Pack, pack, pack…

boxesI’m so very grateful I will be driving this year!

Not only do we get to bring BDSM tools we normally would never take on a plane, but I don’t have to spend hundreds of dollars to ship all this stuff.

RT is intimidating. With so many authors and so many readers, it’s a madhouse, and I am normally a solitary person.

Having it in Vegas is going to be that much crazier! Still, I can’t wait. I get to see old friends, meet new fans, and party like it’s 1999.

(Oh wait, that already happened)
