She had many interesting things to share. I'd have loved to have seen that panel.<br /><br />I attended my first Bouchercon last month and it was huge, about 1400 people. But I liked that.

David @ MBTB told me if I could only go to one, that I should go to NoirCon because it's smaller and more intimate. So I'm crossing my fingers now in hopes I can pull it off.<br /><br />We had our annual Festival of the Book here last month, and it was kind of a tribute to James Crumley, as heChrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10070278104646895235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6980003591398663936.post-82810356037130119562009-11-16T22:11:30.086-06:002009-11-16T22:11:30.086-06:00Thanks so much, Kristy.

Then it's serving my intended purpose.<br /><br />I do hope you'll try a conference. I'm sure the fantasy genre has a few of their own, and if you don't find anything, try a different genre. The panels are more global than you'd think.Rachel Bradyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10543659454210547858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6980003591398663936.post-211227461463473142009-11-16T19:22:40.609-06:002009-11-16T19:22:40.609-06:00Sounds like you had a great time, maybe someday I&...Sounds like you had a great time, maybe someday I'll get the nerve to go to one.

Those are the primary two reasons I love conferences so much--meeting other writers and readers (many who I know from cyberspace), and recharging my batteries.<br /><br />I hope to meet you at an upcoming conference, too!Alan Orloffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03695574442723430347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6980003591398663936.post-13504239460776792832009-11-16T12:17:18.012-06:002009-11-16T12:17:18.012-06:00I decided not to do Nano because of lack of time, ...I decided not to do Nano because of lack of time, but I'm trying to finish a book I started a while ago, and lacking time...
