Literary Escapism has the awesome opportunity of being one of the featured bloggers for the Coastal Magic Convention in Daytona Beach, Florida (February 2016). With this distinction, one of our responsibilities is to help showcase the various featured authors that will be appearing at the conventions as well as the convention itself.
I don’t know about you guys, but putting together an endless run of interviews can get dull after awhile. Especially when I’m not the only one doing convention spotlights. I wanted to do something a little different…and I do love mini fiction (case in point – Black Friday and School’s In)…so I started scheming.
I had this idea and I talked with quite of few of the authors who will be attending #CMCon16, and they were on board!
Over the last couple months, and over the next couple as well, LE will be showcasing the #CMCon16 featured authors with a new exclusive mini-fiction series titled At the Beach, which features the #CMCon16 authors as they take their characters to the beach for some fun in the sun. Whether it’s a fun relaxing trip, the start to some new adventure, or whatever, we’ve seen some pretty fun trips to the beach and I have a feeling there is more fun in the sun to come.
If you missed any of the trips to the #CMCon16 beach, here’s your chance to revisit them. Check out all these fabulous stories:
