So We have been getting a very loaded question here at AAD/
Romance Ink… That question is, WHY AS AN AUTHOR SHOULD *I* DO THE NOVEL
EXPERIENCE?
I’m glad people are asking that question. There are a TON of
reasons why, as an author you should do it, but first and foremost this: TNEE
was created to give EVERYONE, traditionally published, indie published and
small press published the arena to promote and sell their books in an environment
that’s fair for everyone, and won’t break an author’s bank.
There is a serious need for an event that doesn’t limit who
can sign to traditionally published. Readers don’t care HOW a book is
published, only that it IS and there is new stuff to read. All authors have the
right to get out there to reach new readers, and TNEE is one of those events
that is striving to get readers and authors together.
This event was created for YOU, to give authors every
opportunity to hit readers. We chose Las Vegas because it’s a great party town,
you can work, and play and connect with the readers you have for very little
money.
The CVB for Vegas is even giving us some AMAZING pricing on
party buses, events and Shows… so Vegas is even MORE affordable with this
event. And we also have the CHEAPEST room rate available at a strip hotel for
ANY event in lit…. You can’t beat that!
Some other awesome stuff?
TNEE will never take your money from your book sales. EVER.
We are a nonprofit, and have made the event affordable enough that we can get
lots of authors in, to pay for the event itself. We will never charge you for
your books because our bookseller will never expect to sell your books for you.
Event is 200$ for a table for Saturday,
and gets you and your assistant in for the con, and access to the Green room
(food and Booze all day on Sat!) and your name on all promo goodies (provided
you sign on before January 1st as we start printed promo then).
Room rates are actually between 149 and 189 a night
depending on on peak/ off peak and what kinda rooms you get. They DO have
suites, cottages and villas at special prices but you must already be
registered to get them!
As TNEE is in its infancy, we will be working with the
authors and the publishers that are interested in making this event something
amazing. The hotel has offered some prime options (especially as we will be
there for more than one year) to help mold this into an event that can rival
what’s out there now. We are SUPER excited to have the options, and can’t wait
to see what both author groups and publishers come up with.
As of right now, we have over 300 readers signed on for it,
and more coming every day. We are expecting between 1400-2000 people over the
span of the event and we have room for 500 authors in Las Vegas, and we think
YOU would have a great time meeting readers and selling books. We know that the
CVB is is already advertizing this event for us, and they have already helped
to get our bookseller!
Oh and did I mention… Readers go FREE. That’s right, FREE. They
can either WIN a VIP ticket or pay for one, and EVERY author attending gets the
opportunity to give away a VIP ticket to their readers to get them excited to
go. But I mean… its VEGAS so who isn’t excited to go right?
This is the cheapest biggest signing and party event in
literature, one that is fostering a good time for little money. Why not try it
out, become part of an event that puts you and the readers first.
Registration is already open and names will be added to the
website weekly starting Sept. 1st. Our website has more info, and
the link to register for the event. Room reservation are also already open, and
the info for it will be in your conformation email from the ticket site.
Check out our website: http://novelexperienceevent.org and
we hope to see you this coming spring!
