This morning I got to speak to five or six hundred awesome
attendees at this year’s San Francisco Writer’s Conference! Needless to say, I’m
pretty pumped and had a great time interacting with everyone while sharing my
story. Helping to draw a crowd, it also probably didn’t hurt that President
Obama was literally across the street at the Fairmont Hotel during my speech.
;)
As a former attendee myself, it was pretty surreal to address
people who were sitting where I had been just two short years ago. On top of
that, some of the other speakers I got to share the stage with were people I
had listened to at previous conferences. Never did I guess I’d get to shake
hands and hang out with such talented writers and members of the publishing
industry.
So where to from here, right? I think I’m just going to enjoy
the feeling today. After all, tomorrow is another day and I’ve got plenty of
edits from my publisher to go through before I get to see my novel on the shelf
at the bookstore. Nonetheless, I definitely think I’m going to remain in a
celebratory mood. J
