Yesterday I attended the inaugural UKYAExtravanganza event in Birmingham, UK, which was basically a celebration of all things UKYA, including 35 authors showing off their books, a great deal of mingling, and quite a lot of cake.
I went mainly to meet some of the super lovely and passionate people I talk about books with on Twitter, and although I'm bloody awful at meeting people, it was great to chat to a few bloggers and fellow authors.
I also signed a copy of Panther for the very first time!

Please ignore my horrendous hunchback.
It's just over two months until Panther is released, and slowly but surely I'm starting to feel like a real author. Maybe I need to work on my handwriting.
UKYAExtravanganza was marvelous, and I hope to be sheepishly showing my face (and maybe signing a book or two) at more such events in the future.
