It’s time to get excited and get to Nashville for the first ever UtopYA Con, which is the first convention honoring female paranormal/fantasy young adult authors and readers who love them. It will be held at the Scarritt-Bennett Center in Nashville, TN on July 6-8, 2012.
Would you like to come? You’re already excited, I know–but wait until I tell you who’s coming (and this is just a few)… Myra McEntire (Hourglass and Timepiece), Angeline Kace (Descended by Blood), Amy Bartol (The Premonition Series), Tammy Blackwell (Timber Wolves), Tiffany King (Saving Angels), Abbi Glines (The Vincent Boys), Ella James (Stained), Jessica Sorenson (Fallen Star), and so many more! You can find the full list at the UtopYA Con website.
Here’s what a few of the participating authors are saying about UtopYA Con:
Raine Thomas (Daughters of Saraqael and Firstborn Trilogies)- “The world’s been waiting for a conference like UtopYA. It’s unique and in a class of its own. If you enjoy YA fantasy and paranormal stories, you can’t miss this event!”
Chelsea Fine (Archers of Avalon series)- “Don’t miss out on UtopYACon 2012: Bringing your YA books to life!”
Brina Courtney (Cryptid Tales)- “If you’re a true YA fan, you’ll be there, mixing it up with all of us.”
But it’s not just for fans, it’s for authors, too. Learn the tricks of the trade from people who are there, doing it successfully already. There are sessions and panels for both readers and writers alike.
So how about it? You wanna go? Well, obviously you do, but here’s the question… ARE YOU GOING?
Here’s where you can find out more about tickets.
Now…maybe you’re awesome, but you can’t go and you’re bummed. You still want to participate, right? Here’s your chance! From now until June 29th, you can vote for your favorite books to win UtopYA Con awards, hosted by CMT’s Katie Cook. Pretty sweet, right?
Because we had so many blogs helping us to promote this unique event, we decided to do some fun giveaways provided by some of our authors at UtopYA Con and some other authors, as well. Good luck, and we’ll see you at UtopYACon!
