amount of day passes for Friday and Saturday for locals.
Please understand: FOR LOCALS ONLY. (That means no one
flying in from outside of Louisiana will be accepted.)
A day ticket will be

speak on various topics and chance to win giveaways at the panels

Cover Reveal: Angus
One of the books that will be featured in my Cursed n Blood Affair is the next Cursed Clan book, Angus. I am so thrilled with this cover because I really think the model looks like Angus in my head. Kendra Egert did the cover and Jenn LeBlanc is the photographer.

April's Featured Author Spotlight Rollup
Is everyone getting excited, we are one month closer to New Orleans?!?!
April was a busy month for the bloggers, Simply Ali had her Birthday Bash where she was giving away a bunch of free stuff (She extended it a day, so today's the last chance to register on her site for the big giveaway ~ an AADNOLA ticket) with awesome interviews. Suzanne Johnson's DJ Jaco gave some fantastic tips on things you must see while in the great city of NOLA or check out Ms. Crane's advice on Book Faery's blog.
Be sure to check in on the new-to-you authors and learn more about the talented folks you will be mingling with come August
