It's a complete disaster for me now, though. They use Yahoo Groups, and though I was able to get registered, I have no access to Yahoo where I live, so I missed getting all the emails regarding pitch sessions. I've missed everything. I'm completely unfamiliar with using Groups (I'm a die-hard Googler) so navigating is confusing. And this week, I work late every day and won't be able to get to anyone's house this week to use a computer with Yahoo access. Maybe someone will come up with a user-friendly conference one of these days.<br /><br />I hope you get a lot out of the conference. It seems like such a great opportunity and more accessible than flying somewhere and spending money we likely can't spare for a writer's conference. The only reason it's not working out for me is the US Navy blocks Yahoo access. Yeah, they hate their own sometimes. Don't forget to have fun and not let the nerves get to ya! LOL, they can't feel sweaty palms over your internet connection :)Angela McCallisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10610798614001745001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4513702670120363707.post-89583337829781349862010-10-11T16:38:07.458-04:002010-10-11T16:38:07.458-04:00hi miss sheri! for sure im gonna miss you. i hope ...hi miss sheri! for sure im gonna miss you. i hope you have a real lot of fun and learn lots and meet lots of cool people.<br />...hugs from lennyLenny Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12822588007434789481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4513702670120363707.post-34713262546093151322010-10-11T13:17:36.074-04:002010-10-11T13:17:36.074-04:00Conferences are great - both online and in person....Conferences are great - both online and in person.

And at one of them, we got drink vouchers! It was awesome :) <br /><br />I will be looking forward to hearing what an online conference is like.

The most valuable thing I learned is that all writers are hiking the same trail, but just at different stages of the journey.Darby Karchuthttp://www.darbykarchut.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4513702670120363707.post-64729449443299328352010-10-11T08:26:38.688-04:002010-10-11T08:26:38.688-04:00Oh good for you--it'll be GREAT!Oh good for you--it'll be GREAT!Christina Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01799776834213400246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4513702670120363707.post-49303132767520770422010-10-11T07:25:50.432-04:002010-10-11T07:25:50.432-04:00Have fun at the conference.

It was great to network with other writers. I got to meet Cinda Williams Chima who write The Dragon Heir series and The Demon King series. She gave an awesome talk on plot and is so nice. I also went to one of Darcy Pattison's novel revision workshop.<br /><br />I'd recommend going to some local SCBWI conferences when you can. Often, you can get a face to face critique with an agent or editor that sometimes can be helpful too and you can submit to the editors.<br /><br />Have fun at the conference. Enjoy it, learn, and don't worry about blogging.Natalie Aguirrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03756087804171246660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4513702670120363707.post-29535586426798706312010-10-11T06:14:34.541-04:002010-10-11T06:14:34.541-04:00I'd love to go to one but they're usually ...I'd love to go to one but they're usually a bit beyond what I can currently afford - starving artist an' all that - but it's on my list of things to do!mshatchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06308916014310536449noreply@blogger.com
