But yes, it's so fun when you tell people you're an author and they suddenly start treating you like a celeb. Too cool! :) Second, LOL. I know the author in the pic you chose. Her name's Virginia Nelson, and she's a USAT bestselling author who writes contemporary romance for Entangled. She's also in my MFA program.
