Wow, I now have my first book conference under my belt. It was such an exciting yet scary time. I got to see some of my favorite author friends AND hung out with M.K. Eidem, one of my besties. We had a blast and boy do we have some good stuff brewing 😉 I also met readers in person!!! Talk about a humbling experience. Thanks to everyone who popped over.
I might be late doing my rounds for www.wewriwa.com because of my flight today but I’ll get to everyone no later than tomorrow. Now back to my current WIP. Jax is just realizing that Cellie and Cordelia didn’t make it over.
“The Reina has sustained severe damage to the computer grid and most of the functions are non-compliant,” Quinti answered.
Jax gripped the arms of his chair tight. “How many made it to the Z?”
“All of the crew,” Quinti replied. “Only the Queen and her guard, Cellimina Manx, stayed behind.”
“Lita any luck with communications?” Jax prayed and waited for an answer from his communications rep.
Swelita’s frown spoke volumes as she replied, “No, sir.”
Sweat dampened the pits of his shirt but Jax refused to give in to the panic rolling through him. “Try again.”
Oh man, very intense scene, Michelle. You describe the tension/emotion so well. Aren’t conferences the best? It’s awesome meeting fellow authors and readers and talking about our favourite thing–books! So glad you had a wonderful time, and I wish you a safe flight! 🙂
Congrats on the conference! If cool customer, Jax, is in a near panic, its bad times.
Well Jax better keep fighting that panic because clearly things are in a critical mess. Great snippet!
Yay! I’m glad you enjoyed the conference!
