I don't know if I could've kept from sobbing if I'd visited Tim...I got teary reading your recap! I see Nicholas Sparks is about to go viral for his awesome badness. It'll generate a lot of sales for him at least, so he'll bounce back from it. Best, Allure What a great wrap-up post. I don’t know if I could’ve kept from sobbing if I’d visited Tim…I got teary reading your recap!

I see Nicholas Sparks is about to go viral for his awesome badness. It’ll generate a lot of sales for him at least, so he’ll bounce back from it.

But I really did enjoy his talk and I totally laughed my ass off when I realized what he was wearing. It so fits his personality. Too funny. I missed Diaz, because I really wanted to see Rick Riordan as I'm a huge fan of his books and how he promotes reading at young age. I wish I could have seen both, but I'm glad I saw Riordan. I darted out of that tent after Irving, I wanted no part in Sparks. Such crap! Why was he even there? I live right outside DC in Arlington, so any time bloggers want to come that way, give me a shout! I thought and I think that Irving has a HUGE ego.

It was a shame they had to seat as at two different tables! After what I've heard, I'm glad I spent much of the day with my daughter seeking out signatures for her Diary of a Wimpy Kid books and weeding through the states tent instead of seeing Nicholas Sparks. I'm interested in how your challenge thing with Trish plays out. --Anna It was great to meet you, but too bad it was only for a second really.
