The writer's retreat I went to this weekend was fabulous and full of wonderful authors (CL Wilson, Karen Rose, Roxanne St. Claire, Lara Santiago, Kathy Carmichael, Julie Leto, Connie Brockway and Christina Dodd, to name a few.) We had a wonderful time and even got some writing done! Grand Central Publishing editor Amy Pierpont was also in the house and gave some great insight into what editors like and dislike when looking at "cold" pages.
The weekend ended with a casual lunch and I don't want to name too many names, but let's just say that if you ever eat lunch next to Christina Dodd, you may get wet. (Although she was generous enough to give me a bite of her pea salad.) Watching her and Connie Brockway go back and forth was quite a treat. They should have their own show. So long as Connie didn't nap instead. ;o)
TARA is a great chapter. If you ever get the chance to attend their retreat, take it!
