Would love to win.
This is all news to me. I would love to win.
I’d be extremely happy to win!
Love the purple and would love to win,
Thank you
Oh my! I am so envious! I would love to attend one of these fun author conferences one day. Meeting fabulous and favorite authors would be such an honor. You gals get to do great things and everyone has a blast. Beignets and coffee with you all would be fabulous. I have a feeling I wouldn’t have to worry if I had powdered sugar all over my face because I think we would all laugh at it.
Thanks so much for your generous giveaway. You are going to make some reader very happy!
Right??? I think I inhaled a little of the sugar! HAHAHA
Looks good, thanks for the chance.
Love the contests.
I have not been to an Authors event yet. I would love to attend one someday. Thank you
I am in New Zealand so don’t get a chance to go to events but I have heard that they are awesome.
I would love to go to a reader’s con and meeting all of the authors, sadly, I won’t be going to the one in Nashville.
Amazing goodies!!
Excited about the giveaway!
The only time I meet authors are at the B&N’s in my hometown. I will not attend the BLC20 in Nashville because I shelter elderly rescue cats. They are my top priority.
<3 hugs to the kitties!
Thanks for the giveaway
Thank you so much for the opportunity and your generosity
Love book con/signings so much fun to see and talk to my favorite authors
Thank you for the chance. Awesome giveaway
Yes i would love to meet the authors and get their signatures on books
. No I wish i could go
Whoot Whoot!!
I have never been to one
Hopefully Someday I’ll get to go .
Thank you for the Wonderful Giveaway
Excited to possibly win.
would love to win…thank you
Wow!We have the same couch! I would love to win this awesome giveaway!
OMG I love that couch!!! So comfy (when not covered with swag, of course!)
Would love to attend Book Lovers Con to finally meet some authors
thank you for having a contest. I hope to go to the riverside one.
No plans to go to BLC next year yet, but we will see 😉 Would love the chance to meet you in person, Sabrina!
GHAAAAAA How many years have we been saying that??
New books and goodies
Thanks for the chance
Glad to hear you had a wonderful time. This giveaway looks great.
I have never been able to attend, I have severe social anxiety, even though I wish and would love to go it hasn’t happened yet.
I can relate! For me, being around so many people is hard. But I remind myself, these are my people! This is my clan! It helps!
I went to a local one once… it was a lot of fun!
Thanks for the fabulous giveaway.
I’ve never been to a readercon but they do sound like fun.
I have never been to one.
I would love to meet authors in any kind of setting! Unfortunately it just isn’t a possibility right now. I live in Maine and none are close enough. There was one that was an hour away last year but my anxiety only allows me to go within 30 minutes of home. I am working very hard on this. Two years ago I couldn’t go to any family gatherings and I could only drive in town when someone was with me. I have made huge steps and hope to someday see Scotland. For now I will stick to working on stretching my boundaries!
<3 keep working at that. I totally understand. I spend 90% of my time in the house!
It sounds like you had a wonderful time, judging by all the stuff in the picture! I’ve never been to one of these conferences but I’d sure like to go. Maybe next year?
What an amazing and generous giveaway! Thank you for the chance!. I have to say, I haven’t ever attended a book signing (I know, BAD MARY!) but to be honest, I live in the middle of nowhere IOWA. The closest physical bookstore is over 50 miles away. No excuses, just fact. Thank you again for the opportunity to win!
Iowa is AWESOME!!! We need more cons there!
Never been to one. I wish they would have one closer to Southeast Texas
Thanks for the chance
I would LOVE to go to Nashville next year!! Starting to save my pennies(dollars) to hang with all of you fabulous authors! Last time I did, I got kidnapped and held for ransom! LOLOLOL Pictures of my hand were sent to YOU my dear Sabrina…I think Popcorn was involved! hahaha hahaha Love ya!
LOL I remember!!!!
Amazing prizes!! Thank you for the chance!
You know I’d love to come to Nashville. Too bad Lissa doesn’t get vacation. Maybe we could save enough she could take just a couple days off and we could make it for the signing. You know what I like best about the book events. Hanging with my favorite authors and buying books! lol
I love hanging out with you and Lissa too! #TastyKakes
Some fun!! Thanks for the giveaway!!
What “great goodies”!
Hope I win!
Awesome Giveaway!!! I’ve never been to a “con”, but I am a “super fan”, and it would be a dream come true! Nashville is one of my favorite places on the planet!
Awesome giveaway
Thanks for the giveaway!
It is on my bucket list to attend an conference. This would be the next best thing. Thanks.
I haven’t been to a reader event yet – maybe someday!
Would love to win!
Sounds like you & all the other authors had a blast!! What’s not to love about getting together with friends. Enjoy your books & newsletters.
i’ve never been to an event – but I think it would be great fun – also – I would share to more places but I do not know what you are looking for when you ask for the URL’s
Oh, just sharing on facebook and twitter etc!!
Would love winning a book or two from you. I love how you write!
I would love to go to a reader con to meet the authors, but I usually can’t afford to go. I think it would be extraordinarily exciting to meet you. And no, I won’t be going to Nashville con.
Thanks for the chance!
I would love to attend a conference! I was planning on going to this one in San Francisco a couple months ago but I was sorta in the hospital .
NO! I hope you’re OK!
I wish I could but the timing is bad for me.
Amazing!! Wish I could have been there!! Great swag!! Thanks for the chance at a awesome give away!!
would love to attend a rom-con convention someday when I can afford it. Would love to meet authors in person. I love reading their books
I love going to reader conversations! It’s always so fun to meet the people who write the books I read! Plus, I’m always amazed at the cool things they put their logos and book covers on!
I’d love to go to BLC20 and if I’m still in Tennessee or semi close, I’d love to try!
😀
love the genre
Would love to win this! Thanks for the chance!
Great Giveaway! Plan on going to Nashville. I was coming to the book sale in Nola but hubby fell and broke his elbow.

Thank you for the chance to win.
I’d love to attend a reader conference. I have attended some author appearances and autograph sessions and have listened to authors speak at science fiction/fantasy conventions. I’d love to attend BLC20 in Nashville!
😀
Your so amazing in sharing. Your always having five aways. And what woman doesn’t want a tiara?
😀
I went to Atlanta’s KissCon and met some great authors. I hope to attend the BookloversCon in Nashville.
It’s gonna be a blast!
I love the swag!
I have never attended but I would LOVE to.
So love New Orleans. Wish I could have been there. Thanks so much for the chance!
Thanks for the chance. Loved meeting you at BLC19!!!
<3 Me too, Sue!!! I'm so glad you came!
I hope it is open internationally!
YES!
From New Orleans. Love me some Beignet’s. The swag looks good too.
I’d love to win a book. I love the sofa.
I’ve never been to an event.
Oh, I know you’d like it!
Wow, what cool swag 🙂 I went to RT up until it’s last year, Family medical emergency has kept me from ANY Cons since then. I LOVE meeting all my favorite writers & the parties ROCK. I don’t know when I’ll be going back to the cons, but thanks for the chance to win 8D
Thanks for the chance to win. There are alot of great authors out there.
Only been able to attend one reader event, and I won tickets to two others, including RARE Berlin, and one in New York, but I couldn’t go due to illness. I was so disappointed. But I loved the one in Vancouver I did make. I love meeting and chatting with authors.
Looks like you had a good time and came out with lots of goodies !
Thanks for thinking of the readers
Looks like you got a ton of Swag! Thanks for giving us the opportunity to win it
I’m so happy that you had a great time! I have not been to an event yet but, I wanted to go to New Orleans. My husband is battling stage 4 cancer so we budget carefully, I will go to one though! His wish is to make sure I go… I always put my family first and he wants me to come first. I love him! ❤️❤️❤️
Hugs and prayers, Jennifer!
Looks like a great prize package. Thank you for having this giveaway
Wonderful chance I so would love to be able to go to one of these conventions. To be able to meet authors and be able to get autograph books and swag would be so great. Thanks for the chance
I have never been to one but I think it would be wonderful to meet authors who I love reading their books
I went to Avon KissCon in Atlanta. I would love to go to another event.
Awesome giveaway! Thanks for the chance!
I do like to meet authors at such events. I will not be going to Nashville but if someevent is closer to home I try to attend.
I have not attended a reader conference. It sounds like lots of fun!
sounds fun, never been
I enjoy the gatherings very much. I’ve attended the last 3 RWA-NYC get togethers until this year. The author day is on the Sabbath so I’m unable to attend. It’s been a lot of fun getting together with authors I know and distribute bookmarks and cover cards for.
I would love to go to an Authors event someday!!
Maybe in Nashville I live just an hour away from there.
That is some awesome swag you got!! Thank you for the chance to win it!!
I live in Kansas and don’t get to travel much. Just to Kansas City Missouri to children’s Mercy every 3 months for my sons kidney checkup. He had his transplant 6 years ago and is doing great. I have always wanted to attend an event like this. Maybe someday I will get the chance to.
Prayers for your son, Melissa!!
I haven’t been to a author/reader’s conference. I have severe social anxieties so this would be very hard on me. Unfortunately my anxieties seem to be getting worse instead of better as I age 🙁
I can relate. Hugs, June!
I’ve never been to a con, but would sure love to go one day! It would be awesome to do it in New Orleans! All that amazing food!! Books and food! Who needs more?
Wish I could have been there. I would love to win especially that umbrella
Amazing giveaway! So generous! Thanks for the chance 🙂
Thanks for the chance!
Would love to win
I don’t attend the conventions as much as I would love to meet my favorite authors and some new ones as well. Unfortunately I have serious problems with crowds that prevents me. Swag, books and author updates are as close as I can come right now.
Won’t be at the party but enjoy. Anywhere book lovers gather has to be a good place.
I’ve never been to one but I would love to go with my book loving daughters sometime. Looks like a fun time & great swag!
Looks like a great time was had there! Thanks for thinking of all of us with the great Swag and giving it away!!
Thanks for the chance!
I love the swag giveaway! Wish I was going to Nashville for the book signing but I am going to the Vegas one in October instead.
Love all the swag
Would love to go to a conference some day
Thank you! Thank you for the opportunity to wind Swag! It looks fabulous.
Would love to win!
I have never had the opportunity to attend but I would love to go just once Thank you for the chance!
Love meeting Authors and book friends at Book Cons !! Would love to go to next years, but it all depends on my health and whether my Doctors will sign off on my traveling or not. Let me know if this shows as a duplicate comment please Sabrina .
PS. I’d love to see you in person !!
I have attended only one reader con. A very small event in Ypsilanti, Michigan. By ‘very small’ I mean there were only about eight authors present. I follow four of them which is why I even decided to go. I had a blast. Because of the size I was not overwhelmed by crowds or noise. Issues that generally keep me from the bigger events – like this one. Then there is the travel and hotel and food . . . Expenses that just do not fit an already stretched budget. Ypsilanti was only a day trip, so doable. Although I did stretch the budget frightfully because of . . . You know. BOOKS! Tennessee might be doable but . . . See crowd and noise issue above.
But I do love these contests. I have the opportunity to get great swag and stuff without the noise or crowds. Win/win for me. Thank you. aka Becky Parsons
<3 Pansy!
Love the purple parasol. Great choice!!
Not able to attend a reader.con but can just imagine the fun. Thanks for such a neat contest
Sabrina,

Keep writing and giving us many hours of fun
Will love to Meet Authors of my Favorite BOOKS in person

My BFF and I would gladly share! Thank you for the opportunity to win!

Thanks for the chance!
I have never been to a conference, but meeting authors sounds wonderful! Thank you for the chance to win all the lovely SWAG.
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!
I’ve never been to one. There are never any near where I live.
I love the smaller events that are geared towards Historical Romance; however, I always love meeting the authors! Will not be at BLCNashville since I have already committed to Romancing Williamsburg the same weekend.
I’d love to go to Book Lovers Con someday. Thanks for such a wonderful giveaway!
would love to win
I’m going to try to make it to Nashville. *fingers crossed* Thanks for the chance to win some swag!
I have loved Sabrina’s books forever! Now to have a chance to win this, amazing!
It would be so cool to go to BLC, I hope they come to SoCal sometime.
Good luck everyone!
How fun, and what a wonderful giveaway!! I would love to win!! Thank you for the opportunity. I have never been to a writer’s con before, but it sounds like something I would love to attend. Maybe someday!
“Are you coming to BLC20 in Nashville?” Alas, I will have to miss it!
I’m not sure yet!!!
I’d love to win looks like a fun prize
I wish I could attend but I’m not sure my anxiety would allow it.
<3 I totally relate! But it is a blast!!
I love author/reader conventions. Haven’t been to one in a long time tho.
Thanks! I’ve not attended any due to working. But Tiaras always remind me of a good friend (and dad) who was wearing his daughter’s at her request while hosting an party at his home. Darn it, it was long before cell phones had cameras…
<3
One of these days I will make it 🙂
Thank you for the chance.
I love attending author events, but they are usually so far away. Going there costs to much. I wish I could go all ovet the world.
Me too Irma!!!
I won’t make it to Nashville but hopefully will cross paths with you again in the future. 🙂
I hope so Shel!
Thanks for everything!
I have never been to an author signing yet, sadly. But I hope soon I’ll be able to attend one. There’s so many authors I want to meet. Thank you for the chance!
i have never been yet since i have young kids which makes traveling hard but some day i hope to attend one.
So who won all the cool swag?? Thanks for the contest Sabrina 🙂
Thanks for asking Mina! It was Kimberly, from NV! I post all my winners here: http://sabrinayork.com/current-giveaways/
