#CMCon17 | Coastal Magic Convention Invites You to the Beach!

I have an awesome book nerd event to share! ​Today is the opening of the 5th Annual general registration of the Coastal Magic Convention! The convention takes place in Daytona Beach, Florida this upcoming February.

If you live in a place like me, in February you'll probably be buried under 10 feet of snow.  This could be a welcome respite. Not only will you hang out with amazing authors, fabulous featured bloggers, and fellow book nerds - you can take a mini vacation in the middle of the winter. What's not to love about that? 

Speaking of fabulous featured bloggers, I'm happy to announce that I've been selected as one of the featured bloggers for the event! Catch my live author features and hear all about what's in store at the Coastal Magic Convention! The kick off of my Coastal Magic Author Feature series on Book Chat LIVE. will be begin in a few short weeks, so you don't want to miss it.  You'll have the opportunity to submit questions ahead of time, via Twitter and Facebook prior to each author's interview.  You can also ask questions during the live event!

Don't forget, follow all things Coastal Magic all across social media using hashtag #CMCon17!

The Event Details, from the event Director Jennifer Morris

Coastal Magic is, by design, a small event. The registration (which is $90 and covers all our scheduled activities, and your lunch with an author on Saturday) is capped at 250 readers/bloggers. We came *really* close to selling out of registrations last year, so if you know you're going to be coming to hang with us by the beach in February, I suggest getting yourself settled earlier than later! You just need to go to the REGISTRATION page of this site, and after you check out the details, you can click the EventBrite.com button there to buy your full weekend ticket.

I'm doing the hotel reservation process a bit different this year. You'll receive an email containing our group code and reservation page link after you complete your registration. I'm hoping this will slow down the "sellout" problem on our reserve block, as only those who've registered will have access to the room reserve info. You can still see the hotel info and fee details on our HOTEL/TRAVEL page as a reference. And FYI, I'll also list multiple, very nice and reasonably priced hotels within easy walking distance of our Hilton... as I anticipate we'll sell out again this year.

I'm sure there'll be a lot of questions to answer and/or clarifications to make. You can comment on this post, or reach me on our Coastal Magic Convention Authors & Attendees Facebook Group. You can also reach me via the contact form and/or email on the CONTACT page of this site.

I'm excited to get this ball a'rollin -- and I can't wait to see you all next year by the beach!!
