Book Expo America
May 25-27, 2010
a virtual event
(for those of us who could not make the trip to New York)
My pick for today's topic: Name Your Dream Panel
- BEA is full of discussion panels where between 3 to 5 authors/publishers discuss various topics. If you could put together your own panel who (authors/publishers only) would be on it and what would they be discussing? Need some inspiration?
Being that I'm in the steampunk mode due to my upcoming SteamPink week, June 4-12, my Dream Panel would consist of YA steampunk authors and publishers.
