To sum it up: I had a ball. It's one of the most exhausting yet productive 2 1/2 days I've ever spent at a professional function. I volunteered to help man the HWA (Horror Writers Association booth) as I have the past two years. Vince Liaguno, our point man for the past two years the event's been in NYC has been amazing at getting the booth looking attractive and organizing the volunteers and the members who wanted to hold in-booth book signings.

For those who don't know what BEA is, it's short for Book Expo America, a large trade show for book publishers and other related tradesmen to display their wares for the next selling season. So publishers were mostly pushing their fall 2011 books. Foreign publishers, children's book publishers, comic book publishers, small presses, booths looking to sell display cases or greeting cards to bookstores.
