Blogger Signings Debut at BEA

By Jason Boog 

firebrand-1.jpgAt BookExpo America this year, Firebrand Technologies will celebrate literary bloggers with the same enthusiasm publishers bring for authors at the annual convention.

The company will hold blogger signings during the event, hosting autograph sessions, interviews, and Q & A’s with online literary curators. As an added bonus, the company will give away two free Sony Readers to randomly selected participants. Any interested bloggers should contact fran [at] firebrandtech [dot] com.

Here’s more from the release: “‘Blogger Signings’ is a bit tongue-in-cheek, as it is meant as a parody to the many “Author Signings” that are hosted either by BEA directly, or by individual publishers in their booths each year … As added encouragement, our bloggers on the Follow the Reader blog, Kat Meyer (@katmeyer) and Charlotte Abbott (@charabbott) will be on hand. Kat and Charlotte will be interviewing bloggers during a few of the time slots, and those interviews will be posted on the Follow the Reader site.” (Via Booksquare)
