Exploring Adoption: Laura's International Christian Retail Show Adventures

This week I'll be reporting from the International Christian Retail Show, otherwise known as ICRS, otherwise known as CBA (Christian Booksellers Association). My author friend, Jenn Doucette, and I flew from Seattle to Atlanta yesterday (Friday), where we joined our roommates, Cyndy Salzmann and Dena Dyer, in a tiny room at the Westin Peachtree Hotel.

Today Jenn and I played tourist; we took a tour of CNN headquarters, browsed around the gigantic convention center to get the lay of the land, and then toured the Coke museum. For dinner, we crammed 13 authors into two taxis and dined at Mary Mac's Tearoom, a locally famous Southern home cookin' restaurant. Delicious!

Tomorrow the work begins -- I'll be interviewing three authors for one of my clients and then attending an author dinner with my publishing house.

Here's a slideshow from Day 1 (to view the captions, click the green callout box in the lower left corner of the slideshow. To view full size, click anywhere inside the slideshow):
