But for today, it's time I started talking about the great things of BEA again. And one of the greatest things about it is meeting people you know online.
You guys may recall me talking about Kendra Saunders on numerous occasions in the past. She is the marketing guru at Spencer Hill Press and an EXTREMELY talented writer.
There she is!! Isn't she so pretty??
I have to admit that meeting Kendra in person was one of THE MOST anticipated moments of my trip. This is Kendra Saunders we're talking about here. The author of one of my all-time favorite books (review coming on Friday)! The girl I'd talked to on the phone a dozen times before! She's hilarious! And super sweet!
And honestly? I was dying to show her my clothes for BEA. She has the best taste I've ever seen, so I knew if she liked what I was wearing, I looked darn good. :D
I saw her at the Spencer Hill Press booth on Tuesday and she was just as sweet in person as she is on the phone. Unfortunately, I didn't get to hang out with her as much as I'd hoped because she had a friend who lived in NYC who she had to visit. But what I did see of her was amazing. She is so funny and I am soo lucky to have her as my friend.
If you do not follow Kendra on Facebook or Twitter, you must! And check out her book, Inanimate Objects.
I already follow her, at your recommendation of course. Some funny shit.
ReplyDeleteThanks for this recommendation, Emily! Definitely going to follow her now if she is a marketing guru. It'd be great to learn some tips. ;-)
ReplyDeleteOmigosh your dress, Em. Pretty, pretty. :-) Gonna go check out Kendra's twitter!

Yay for meeting people in person!
ReplyDeleteOh gosh, Emily, thank you so much! I'm not kidding when I say, I told EVERYONE, "I can't wait to meet Emily, I can't wait." It felt like I'd known you for years, when we did finally meet. <3 And grabbing lunch with you at that weird McD's was great too. You are such a bright and fabulous lady!!
