Seriously.
I came back earlier this week from my favorite place ever. I'm not talking about Akron/Canton, OH, which is lovely in and of itself. No, I'm talking about the convention that's held there every year. Ellora's Cave Publishing's Annual RomantiCon took place this past weekend at the McKinley Grand Hotel in Canton, and all I can do is shout out a big HELL and YES.
You guys have heard me talk about this convention before, but honestly, I can't begin to tell you how much I love going to it. And my love of all things RomantiCon is not based on the fact there's hot as hell Cavemen walking around... Well, okay, it's not
solely based on that ;). It's based on the fact that the best people on earth attend this convention -- lovers of erotic romance.
I've made some lifelong friends at this convention, which just celebrated its fifth year. I could go on and on with a list of names, but I don't want to leave anyone out accidentally. Those of you whom I love, you guys know it -- simply because I told you often enough over the weekend.
So, with that being said, let's get to the fun part, the part y'all really want to see and read about: the pictures! Here we go!
