The 2010 Literacy Signing…Music Video

Last night I wandered the 2010 Literacy Signing making a music video. With Ke$ha. Not actually with me but playing on endless loop in my head. It is only fair I share the ear worm with you, right?

Thank you to all the authors who let me film them (I’m sorry I could not use all my footage, as some of it was really wonky when I imported it) and who wrote all the lovely books I buy by the truckload every year. And congrats to everyone for raising over $62,000.00 in one night to fight illiteracy. That RULES.

(My apologies for the not-perfect editing. Lip-synching is HARD.)

    Sarah, I love, love, love you. If I ever win the lottery I’ll see you at RWA one day and we can lipsync all around the signings and in the bar with Jeanieine Frost (I know I spelt that wrong but she has too many vowels to get right) and Meg Cabot and HelenKay Dimon and all those other authors who I would desperately love to meet and tell them how much their writing is my drug.

    You made me like this song! Love the video! Encore, encore!

  5. LOVE!  What a fantastic event.  And wow, great editing!  I don’t even want to think about how many cuts you had to make.  I just want to watch it.  I felt like I was really there for 3 mins 20 sec.

    word27. Yes. WORD, 27 times.

    I am SO UPSET! I’m not sure why but I did not realize that the conference was in Orlando. I only live two hours away in Jacksonvile.. 🙁

    That was awesome!  It looks like everyone was having a fun time too!

    Even though we were there & failed to make it into the video it was fantastic… but nothing compares with being there!

    We will definitely do it again… and again… and… well, you get the idea.

  22. Kambria says:

    I loved it!  That was definitely a cool video.  I would have loved to have been there!
