AAD 2013 in Savannah, GA. I'll see ya there....



I am still thinking about all the fun I had last month at AADNOLA and now it's time to start thinking about AADSAV.

In case you have not heard yet Authors After Dark (AAD) will be in Savannah Georgia in 2013. If you have not registered yet you still have time. But hurry before it sells out! The party starts on August 15, 2013 and goes on to August 18, 2013.


AADSAV's Master of Ceremonies will be MaryJanice Davidson.

AADNOLA was my first book con and I had a blast (see my recap) and if AADSAV is anything like it you won't want to miss out!


Authors After Dark is great for con virgins since it's smaller than most and you get to spend a lot of quality time with the authors. AAD is truly all about the readers; with only 500 attendees, 100 authors allowed, and NO press.

Here are a list of some of the special events so far:

  • Formal Bookie Awards
  • Vampire Ball
  • BDSM Bingo
  • Steampunk Tea
  • Riverboat Dinner (limited availability) 
  • Rednecks and Romance with Torquere Press
  • Elemental Masque


Authors After Dark Savannah Nights is about $250.00 which covers your meals (tentatively, 3 lunches and 2 dinners) first and foremost.

Authors After Dark Savannah Nights is taking place at the Savannah Marriott Riverfront Hotel. The room rates have been negotiated to a lower rate of $139.00 a night for double occupancy. Please keep in mind that hotel reservations CAN NOT be made over the phone. Personal hotel reservation information will be sent via email once registration is placed for the convention. For more info on the venue check out the AAD Venue PAGE.


If you are like me and never been to Savannah and wonder what's there to do? Check out a few of these sites I've found:
Savannah Tours
Ghost Tours
Savannah Attractions
Savannah Riverboat Cruises

One thing that I learned from attending AADNOLA.... Bring a large suit case or an extra one for all the books and swag. You get tons of free stuff and not to mention all the books you will buy at the signing.

I've been chosen as on of the 15 featured bloggers for AADSAV so starting in October through August you can stop by to check out some of the featured authors (see authors list).

Make sure you follow me by  , Twitter, or Facebook to receive updates on what's going on here at The Book Nympho with author interviews, posts, reviews, and giveaways!


Here is a short list of authors that I have already booked:

    1. I started early contacting authors since some of the NY ones are busy and sometimes takes a while to hear back from them.

      I asked on Twitter yesterday if they will send out an email but I've not heard anything. I'm sure they will since we will need the spotlight graphic to include in our posts.

    1. It's great that I will get to meet some "new" bloggers next year that I didn't get to meet this year.

  5. Still haven't decided if I'm going to AAD or RT, I made reservations for RT, but I need to make plans for the Kiddo.
    I'll be following this closer than last time, I want to know every author that attends, I missed out on a lot, cuz I didn't know a lot of the authors.

    1. Thanks lady. I applied kind of last minute and was surprised I got picked. I thought if I get picked I'll go if not I might go in 2014. So since they picked me I'll be there.
