RWA Nationals is over already! I'll attempt to post a more thoughtful recap later, but for now I'll just give you the raw numbers:
- number of workshops attended: 11
- pages of notes taken: 16
- pages of notes taken that are actually legible: 2 1/2
- number of decadent desserts eaten in 4 days: 6
- number of pounds gained: you're crazy if you think I'm getting on a scale right now
- final blister count from cute new shoes: 1
- number of times I teared up during GH/Rita acceptance speeches: 4
- distance between me and Nora Roberts at the Awards Ceremony: 20 feet
- number of books I managed to cram into my already full suitcase: 13 (including one hardback)
- number of Big Bang episodes watched at the airport and on the plane: 7
I loved spending time with my writer friends. Here are my two fabulous CPs (and me) before the Awards Ceremony.
