Armchair BEA 2011

So, Book Expo America (BEA) is like the mecca of the publishing/book blogging world. It's the who's who of books. Authors, bloggers, publishers, and media all unite to talk about the books coming up this year that are going to rock.

For the past two years I've read blogs and felt the extreme sting of jealousy for those that could attend BEA. And by a stroke of luck (or a patient husband, however you slice it), I got the go-ahead to go this year.

However, I know that many of you won't be able to go. Finances, conflicting schedules, or other things get in the way. So, last year, a few bloggers got together and formed Armchair BEA. Basically, you get to participate in activities virtually. Last year it rocked. We had a twitter party, blog interviews, discussions, etc.

This year we are back. And it's going to be bigger than ever. I'm excited to announce as well that I'm going to be an on-site correspondent this year and bring you all the action directly from the floor of the Javit's Center.

If you'd like to participate, the registration form opened up today. So, head over to the website and sign up!
