Hello?

Gosh, I feel like the only one on the planet who isn’t at RWA in NY.

Okay, that’s a slight over-exaggeration.  But still.

Twitter’s a bit more quiet than normal. The writing loop emails are fewer and farther between.

I’ve gone to national writing conferences before, and they’re a blast. I’m totally sad I didn’t get to go, but next year! Can’t wait. It’s closer to my neck of the woods so I’m super excited.

What I get most out of conferences are the connections with other writers. Face to face, anyway. I have a lot of contacts online, and that’s freaking awesome, but to put a face and a smile to the web identity (and not just a profile pic) it’s WAY fun!

And, it reminds me that I’m not alone in this. Other people are going through or have gone through what I might be experiencing.

That’s priceless.

So, to all who are in NY, I hope you are having a blast. And I hope you post tons of pictures and descriptions of your experience!!
