Updates! (& Pictures)

It's been a busy couple of weeks since my last post and I wanted to give you an update on what's been happening. As I'm sure many of you are aware, The Zeiihbu Master launched on March 25th and made it to #2 on one of Amazon's Hot New Releases charts (thank you to everyone who spread the word about the series).

UCF Book Festival main floor
The UCF Book Festival on April 5th was amazing. I loved talking books with fellow authors and readers and the Fantasy Frenzy Panel with Will Wight and JA Souders had a huge turnout. Every seat was taken and the standing areas were nearly full, despite the fact we shared the Keynote Speaker's time slot. I really appreciate everyone who came to hear us talk. We had a great time and people tell me it was one of the most enjoyable panels at the Festival (yay!).

My first book signing :)
After the panel, I had the chance to meet some of my fans and sign books. For those who were able to stop by and say "hi", thank you. I had a line the entire time and the Bookstore sold out of my third book!

My editor and I, being goofy as usual
Since my only complaint had to do with missing my chance to meet Mike Farrell from M.A.S.H. and get his autograph (sadly, my own fault since I completely forgot), I'd say the festival was a fabulous success. HUGE appreciation to Edward Booker from the Orange County Library System for his expert (and excellent) panel moderation, as well as the University of Central Florida, Barnes & Noble and the sponsors and volunteers for organizing the amazing event.

I'd love to do another event like this soon, so if you know of any, let me know :).

On a side note: I was so busy, I failed to get pictures! The last two are courtesy of my editor, Jessica Lux. If you have any you don't mind sharing with me, please send them my way at Kristen@kristentaber.com or upload them to Facebook and tag my author page. Thanks!

UP NEXT....
