In two short weeks I'll be heading to the 2011 AWP Conference in Washington, D.C. I'm super excited. Three full days of books and reading and writing! Oh, and authors! (Carrie Jones, anyone?)
I'm a bit overwhelmed, having never previously attended a book/writing conference. There's so much I want to see and do! No idea how I'm going to find the time to fit it all in, while still remembering to eat and sleep.
Anyone else heading to the AWP Conference? And anyone that's been to a similar type of conference - how was your experience with it? Any advice/tips?
Thanks for stopping by my blog and commenting!
ReplyDeleteI am going to be at the AWP conference for the first time as well. I can only go for Friday afternoon and Saturday. I live a far drive away. Looking forward to what I CAN squeeze in there though. And bookfair? *swoons*
I am so jealous! The next book conference here in the Philippines is still in September, I think. You are so lucky!

I'm insanely jealous, Alissa! I wish I could go...work is insane, and I have all this planning to do for my trip to Africa, so it's not possible.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a blast though! :)
Like all the girls here, I'm jealous. Very, very extremely jealous. I believe I shall expect pictures and a minute by minute account of your experience. I don't even know if we have book fairs in Vancouver. Something to ponder over. Have a lot of fun!
