I also had the pleasure of meeting her friend, Katelyn Pfeiffer, who I suspect I’ve seen before, possibly at the 2024 Novel Marketing Conference.

It was amazing how many Novel Marketing/Author Social connections I met there! Being avid fans of Sci-Fi and Fantasy also, my husband made sure to purchase copies of their books to add to our TBR piles. You can learn more about Claudia and her books here.

Of course, my Viking sword, Sáreldr, was the hit piece of the table. A great conversation starter, for sure, and only one of two swords present at the entire event. Yes, several asked if it was for sale. No, I didn’t let them buy it. It’s my precious!

The event took place in the grand ballroom of the Denny Sanford Convention Center in Sioux Falls, SD. The pictures above don’t really capture the entire scope of the place. Still, you can see it was pretty big. While I missed out on most of Friday’s events this time, I look forward to returning in the future and attending both days. It’s a two day event with the first day consisting of classes and author panels, along with an evening meet and greet. The last day is devoted entirely to the book event.

I highly recommend it for readers and authors alike!
