Top Ten Best Bookish Memories
I'm not sure if you can call some of these "memories," but I didn't know what else to say. This topic was kind of hard. Sure, I could just list ten authors I met, but that'd be no fun. Sooo, here are some "memories" I have in the bookish world.
Meeting People: Seriously, I've made so many friends and met so many people through all the things in this bookish world, and it's awesome! I love knowing everyone, and I love how most of us can easily discuss one topic: books.
Reading All the Books: Okay, so I haven't read all of them. But I've read so many and heard about so many through the blogging community and bookish people, and that's awesome! I've read some amazing books that I might not have heard otherwise, and I'm grateful for that.
ALA Midwinter 2013: Meeting authors, publishers, people I knew from Twitter and blogging...it was awesome! Not to mention ALL THE BOOKS! Seriously, that weekend rocked.
The Twilight Saga: I read Twilight and became a bookworm. Since then, I've been a total Twihard, reading the books over and over, going to all the movies at midnight, owning all the movies, and a bunch of memorabilia. The Twilight Saga is my life, my inspiration, what made me want to read and write.
For the Love of Reading: For my senior project in high school I put together an author signing called For the Love of Reading, featuring Holly Cupula, Kimberly Derting, Mandy Hubbard, and Lisa Schroeder. It was awesome (and what got me to start a blog).
Meeting Stephenie Meyer: *insert fangirl moment here*
YA Crush Tourney: It's one thing to watch from the sidelines; it's another to be adovcating a crush. (Go Sam!) The whole experience was just awesome and crazy, especially in the 11th hours! But it was SO FUN! I can't wait for the next Tourney!
My First ARC: I won Kendare Blake's Girl of Nightmares from Mindee Arnett, and it was just so cool to have an unfinished, advance copy in my hands.
Followers: One, two, fifty, one hundred, one hundred fifty--look at all the followers! Where did you come from? And thanks for caring about what I have to say.
Becoming a Polygamist: Being bookish has also introduced me tomillions of several hot fictional boys, and call dibs on want them all.

And I think that is awesome that you put together such an awesome event! What an accomplishment and great memory that must have been to see your hard work come to fruition!
