I’m home and full of ideas for a few new stories. The conference
had some highs and lows, but overall an excellent conference!
What started off as a low at dinner on Friday night
turned into an amazing high. The guest speaker stated he was a channeler. For me
the speech was a tad sad and depressing. My friends love him, so I felt this is all personal taste. My parents always taught me to be
respectful so I stayed and am I glad I did. After he was done my friends
said let’s go up and talk to him. I didn’t have much I wanted to hear from him,
but a dear friend of mine did. She wanted closer for a very difficult
situation. As I stood in line I told her she may never get closer. I just felt
it was best for her to be prepared that closure isn’t always available. Boy did
Roland Comtois prove me wrong. He gave her so much closer he had me in tears. He
also gave another friend some much needed information.
As for me he told me my dad needed me. I hadn’t spoken to
him in over a month. I called and left him a vm and he called me back
yesterday. Turns out my father had thrown his back out two weeks ago and was
suffering. We spoke last night and I feel much better.
One of the highlights of my Friday night was meeting Julia
Barrett in person. She is beautiful on the inside and out. She’s an amazing
online friend so to see her, talk to her and give her a hug (or five) was
incredible for me. Love ya J!
Another online friend I had the honor of finally meeting in
person was Penny Watson. Folks she’s so funny and gorgeous in her tiara. I
enjoyed her Promo workshop, her tiara and her ability to sell all her Christmas
books at the book signing. (okay, so I was a bit jealous). ;)
That’s it for today. Tomorrow I’ll talk about Saturday and
my agent appointment.
Happy Monday!
Amber....it was so good to finally meet you! Miss Gorgeous! With a Gorgeous Baby! I hope you come again next year when I won't be on the committee and I will have more time to hang out. Best of luck with all your upcoming projects! :^)
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you had a good time. I almost drove up for the book signings on Saturday. I'm glad you reconnected with your father.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a very wonderful, eventful weekend. I love getting together with other authors but I rarely actually get to.
ReplyDeleteHey sweetie - lovely to finally meet you in person. I hope your dad feels better soon. Penny's a hoot, isn't she? We definitely must do this again and I want to hear about your agent appointment!
