All righty then...
We're going to Denver for the Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers' Conference! 'We' because hrothgar1 fabulously offered to come along for hand-holding/butt-kicking and general expediting purposes. Bought the plane ticket and hotel res (could have saved money seeking crash space or a cheaper hotel, but this will simplify the logistics, give M somewhere to hang out and me somewhere to retreat to). Will sign up for the conference as soon as possible. Hope my boss agrees to give me the 2 days off!! I emailed her, but she's out of town, so I haven't heard back yet.
I've never been to Colorado (not that I'm going to see much of it). Hope the mile-high elevation doesn't cause us too much trouble.
Thank you to everyone for your encouragement so far. Your unanimous and vocal recommendation command to go is a huge part of what tipped this from hypothetical to happening. Having your web of readily accessible support via LJ is a powerful aid that I didn't have the other two times I went through this process.
The conference is Sept. 12-14. Expect a lot of venting/ whining/ rambling/ jittering/ analysis etc. as I get psyched up for this.
