My very first successful author-stalking event, lol! I found out from a friend that Chloe Neill was going to be kinda-sorta in my neck of the woods Saturday evening. So, what's a fan supposed to do? Why, show up, of course!
This being the very first time I've ever gone to an author appearance, I wasn't sure what to expect. Needless to say, I was late (of course)... The Mr. decided to go get groceries, and didn't get home till 5, which is when Chloe was scheduled for. I was cranky... =P
But I made it, and there she was! Lovely, witty, and with fans who drove up from Chi-town to see her. How could they not? It's Chloe Neill!!
The best part? She knew who I was!! *squeal* I had a very nice time meeting you, Ms. Neill. Come back again, and I promise to be there early so I don't miss anything!
Chloe Neill writes the Chicagoland Vampires series (Some Girls Bite, Friday Night Bites, and the to-be-released-midyear Twice Bitten) and has just released a new YA book, Firespell. Check them out!
My review of Some Girls Bite.
My review of Friday Night Bites.
A roundtable interview with the Chicagoland Vampires characters...
Firespell is on my nook, and I cannot wait to read it...

What fun! I'm sure that was thrilling to find out that she knew who you were! I'm screaming for you!
Good going, Drey! What a thrill!
It was definitely a thrill!! I'm still happy, lol!!!
Sounds like fun. She seems to be very nice..down to Earth despite her immense popularity.
Hi Drey
Way to go!!! I am so excited for you. It is so much fun to meet author's when you have read their work first. I have met Ben Bova. That was very cool. Someday I hope to meet Carrie Vaughn and Jim Butcher.
Have a great week my friend. Sounds like your off to a wonderful start.
Take care,
wheels
Aloha!!!=)
That is so freakin cool!!=)
That is so fantastic that she knows who you are! I'm sorry I didn't get to talk to you more - or meet her! Can you believe that I was there, but since we were busy I never got to get over there! Ugh! You'll take me to her next one, right? :)
How Exciting to meet a favorite author! AND she KNEW who you were! That is just too cool!
