My tip: Don't grab every galley you see. You look desperate and the publisher reps will not respect you. Be selective and also talk to the publisher reps. Especially Marketing. They will be the people you'll want to be in touch with. Have business cards.Carin Siegfriedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07278383926500248048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206029274559460902.post-33250145630150579082010-02-19T11:18:07.117-08:002010-02-19T11:18:07.117-08:00Aw geez, now I feel myself getting convinced! :) T...Aw geez, now I feel myself getting convinced! :) Thanks for the encouragement, and it's nice to hear that others didn't let feeling intimidated stop them from attending and having a blast!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206029274559460902.post-66693269645352929162010-02-19T09:59:57.661-08:002010-02-19T09:59:57.661-08:00Nat - thanks for the heads up about comments - I h...Nat - thanks for the heads up about comments - I have gone in and changed the settings (hopefully successfully!)

I remember hearing about it last year. It’s wonderful to see book bloggers welcome at the BEA. That’s good that you will share your inside knowledge of NYC to help others acclimate. <br /><br />I enjoyed your list of places to read in NYC – I grew up reading on buses and in Central Park. Another good spot is behind the Metropolitan Museum of Art – the pyramid glass reflects the sun and keeps you warm, but bring sun block. <br /><br />As for new bloggers like bookwanderer – don’t feel intimidated. I’m an old timer, and I’ve only been blogging for 3 years. That’s how new blogging is. I went to the first book blogging panel at the Oxford Literary Festival when I was living in England 2 years ago and connected with dovegreyreader scribbles. We are still linked today even though I've moved back to the USA.Sarah Laurencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00423008641739156182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206029274559460902.post-37351529834423254842010-02-18T17:22:28.149-08:002010-02-18T17:22:28.149-08:00I'm trying to go to this but we might have chi...I'm trying to go to this but we might have child care issues that will prevent it.

But then I figured its still 2.5 mos off so I will be more experienced by then:) I wouldn't go if I also had to travel to it but I figured with in in the city, I might as well give it a shot.<br /><br />Let me know if your plans change and you think you can make it!
