It sounds so nice! What fun to meet up with so many interesting and nice writers in person!

Writers are always good company, aren't they!

Love-hate relationship is right! It was so nice meeting you and the others for dinner, even though it was a bit chaotic :-) Next time, I'll be by myself so shopping, museums, and libraries can actually be on the itinerary!

Yeah, the planning wasn't the best. Well, it would have been if not for that restaurant. I never did make it back there and I am sad. And on the way home I noticed there were a ton of restaurants on 3rd Ave. not far away. argh!

By the way, sorry I misspelled your name. This voice recognition software is giving me more typos with people's names!

No worries! And I'm sorry to hear you didn't get to try that lamb and lemon and oregano pizza...it sounded delicious!

Ooooo! That sounds excellent, though, overall. Maybe just because meeting editors still sounds to me like that trump card of total awesomeness. Also, I say awesome overmuch, too. We can't help being awesome though and needing the word, right? :D

Yes, just having an editor to meet was definitely the crown jewel of the visit. The last time I was in New York I didn't even have an agent and I remember thinking that the next time I came back maybe I would have an agent or an editor to visit. I think some of the best moments are when you reach those specific times you dreamed about in the past.

And you're right. We do need the word awesome a lot because it's just true. =D

I agree - those are the best moments. Here's to many more!

The whole trip sounds wonderful, except for the achy parts, and I'm envious you got to hang out w/ Savi.

:-)

Yeah, wish you could've been there! We talked about how cool it was that we had all made it and out of all the agents she ended up with Laura and you and I with Jenn.

I'm a big fan of the Morgan Library. Next time, I want to be there with you guys!

fabulousfrock August 1 2009, 18:31:58 UTC

I know, I wish I could have visited when you were there. It's hard to plan to meet everyone in one trip but it will happen!
