I feel lucky that there is a relatively inexpensive but well done conference just three hours from me. When they did one day conferences I could get up at 4 AM and be home by midnight. It was hard, but totally worth it for me.<br /><br />@Janie, I bet! I love when the interviews and keynote speakers are amazing. Well, that sounds weird because every one I've been to has been amazing. Even when I didn't know anything about that author before the conference.

The interview with her was the highlight of the day.<br /><br />Love,<br />JanieJanie Junebughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10573607241326291404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4393512822627120580.post-48057246645031790392015-10-30T20:58:07.128-05:002015-10-30T20:58:07.128-05:00Very good points.

But then I moved to outer Mongolia (relatively speaking) and unless I wish to fly across a continent, there are very few near me.<br /><br />The answer, of course, is to set up a group that puts on writers' conferences (which, actually, could be fun). But until then I scan calendars, look at chasses, look at my own schedule, and sigh.Diana Wilderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11074083771067857127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4393512822627120580.post-14251933899972558782015-10-30T19:10:14.625-05:002015-10-30T19:10:14.625-05:00I have not been to a writer's conference, nor ...I have not been to a writer's conference, nor have I felt the need to.
