Leaving on a . . . ferry

I'm off to Surrey International Writers Conference tomorrow morning and I am PUMPED! After the success of my stint at the Pacific Northwest Writers Conference in July, I can't wait to dive back in, this time without the buzzing voice in the back of my head that sounds vaguely like a zombie with an English accent:

"Must get agent, must get agent, must get agent. . . "

Phew. Its quite the relief that for the moment the only people I'm trying to impress are the editors . . . . . Oh crap.

Well, so much for that initial theory. Let the games begin either way. I won't be back until Sunday so don't expect much on the blog unless there is a major development. Here's hoping! :)

Sleepless In Seattle

This will be my last post until next week when I get back from the Pacific Northwest Writers Conference in Seattle. I have two appointments, one with an agent (she's not representing my genre but I'm hoping to get some feedback anyway) and one with an acquisitions editor. I'm excited, nervous and hopeful all rolled into one. I don't know if I'll be able to sleep until after those two appointments. . .

So maybe, just maybe, by this time next week, I'll have some really good news for all of you! Fingers crossed and wish me luck, I'm heading off to the big time. ;D
