This time next week, I’ll be
on my way to Anaheim , California
Ever wonder why published
authors go to writing conferences?
Here’s my list of reasons:
1.
Attend workshops
given by leading professionals in the publishing industry.
2.
Hear bestselling
authors discuss their work and the techniques they use in their writing.
3.
Meet with Love
Inspired editors and learn their vision for the upcoming year.
4.
Connect with my
agent and work on career planning.
5.
Participate in
the “Readers for Life” charity book signing that raises thousands of dollars to
aid literacy. (If you’re there, be sure to say hello. I’ll be at Table 407.)
6.
Brainstorm with
the Craftie Ladies of Romance about how to grow our blog.
7.
Reconnect with
writing friends I haven’t seen since the last conference.
8.
Offer
encouragement to those just starting on their journey to publication.
Hope to see you at the
conference.
Safe travel,
Debby Giusti
Check out my Seekerville blog
tomorrow. I’ll talk about Writing Conferences Across America.
Watch for THE
COLONEL’S DAUGHTER, the third book in my Military Investigations series, in
bookstores this August.
THE COLONEL’S DAUGHTER
By Debby Giusti
UNDER SIEGE
A ruthless killer is targeting the families of
soldiers in a U.S. Army
colonel’s brigade. Special agent Jamison Steele, of
the Criminal
Investigation Division, vows to stop him—because this
time,
Jamison’s heart is involved. The colonel’s daughter,
the woman who loved and left Jamison without a word, came face-to-face with the
murderer. Protecting Michele Logan means constant surveillance. And solving the
mystery of the serial killer’s motive requires asking Michele the questions she
least wants to answer. Questions that may lead them both into a deadly trap.

Debby!!! I'll see you there!!!! Just last week I decided to go.
ReplyDeleteYay, Camy! That's such great news! I'll look forward to seeing you.
ReplyDeleteHugs!
I'm so bummed that I won't be there! I'll be here in Georgia feeling sorry for myself. :)
ReplyDeleteY'all have a great time!
I won't be there either. But maybe next year, but probably not. I am becoming a northwoods hermit!
ReplyDeleteHave fun Camy and Debby!
Missy and Lyn, wish you would both be there.
ReplyDeleteSeems many folks are opting out this year. Probably the travel distance for east coasters. Plus, RWA was in Disney World two years ago so the Disney draw isn't as strong.
It won't be the same without you!!!
Have a great time in CA!
ReplyDeleteSounds like so much fun. wish we had signings here!
ReplyDeletebut I am looking forward to God willing meeting some authors next May.
Sorry we had storms in the area last night and I couldn't get back online.
ReplyDeleteRachel!!! So good to see you here. Looking forward to another great ACFW and your beautiful, spirit-filled music!
Ausjenny, hoping we can connect during your visit to the USA!!! Fingers crossed.
How are you feeling?
