Save style for the evening and be nice to your feet!<br /><br />I'm looking forward to saying hello, either at BEA when I'm signing on Wednesday or else at the BBC, where I will be one of the "speed dating" authors during lunch. This should be a great event. Already thinking about which hat to wear...M.L.

I'd also add don't be afraid to talk to those around you. I made a couple of good friends I could meet up with every day to go around the floor with and got to lunch with.
