I was so excited to see 6 comments. <br /><br />Becke, you are the best and thanks again for the part you played in making this a successful trip.<br /><br />Jenn, didn't get to see you much, but it was nice seeing a familiar, friendly face just about everywhere I turned.<br /><br />Tonya, Mary and Keri - so glad to see you're planning for Nashville. I made some comment to my husband about next year and he said, "Oh, so this is going to be an annual event?" Well, yeah! Well, at least for Nashville with it being so close. <br /><br />Rosie, I know a certain waiter in DC who will never be the same with just the two of us, I can't imagine what Nashville will be like after the bunch of us have come and gone.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10251531547727119406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7912436910530331572.post-84761753780345565092009-07-22T18:18:00.071-04:002009-07-22T18:18:00.071-04:00Tina-LOL!

I'm working on a song expecially for you and will sing it to you the next time I see you, girlfriend! <br /><br />Seriously, you captured the RWA national conference experience perfectly and I couldn't have said it better. Meeting so many generous people was a great experience and no, I mustn't forget it.<br /> <br />The agent in the bar/lounge experience happened because of a published author's desire to give us the opportunity to pitch. She, Monica Burns, told me later, it makes her happy to help out. Well, I'm happy she did and would love to pay it forward!<br /><br />I can hardly wait for Nashville next year because we're going to have more of our OVRWA members joining us and the only thing that comes to mind...Nashville will never be the same!Gabriella Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13600431808748763821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7912436910530331572.post-92022790034873209372009-07-22T10:48:52.823-04:002009-07-22T10:48:52.823-04:00TEE-na!

Now I'm stewing with jealousy yet again.<br /><br />It's okay--I'm already saving my pennies for Nashville, just like Mary is. I'll see you there (and, of course, at OVRWA meetings).<br /><br />Gonna link my blog at http://thekeristevens.blogspot.com to yours now--welcome to the blogosphere.Keri Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13958093932654844690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7912436910530331572.post-85329694439190953412009-07-22T09:58:40.615-04:002009-07-22T09:58:40.615-04:00Hey Tina-- love the look of your blog.
Thanks fo...Hey Tina-- love the look of your blog. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing your experience at RWA. I got goose bumbs when you talked about paying it forward. I want to hear all the stories, but I know it isn't the same as actually being in the moment. Don't forget anything--I want details.<br /><br />I'm already planning for Nashville.

The cost is the same, I couldn't do both. <br />At this point in my writing career, I feel the writing conference will help me hone my craft and allow me to get to RWA as a signing author!!

I haven't quite recovered from my lack of sleep yet, but it was certainly a memorable week. Just meeting so many of my favorite authors was a dream come true, and it was so much fun to have friends like you and Rosie to share it with!Becke Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05347467350985614111noreply@blogger.com
