It went well and those of us who volunteered are happy (and ignoring our sore feet and backs).<BR/><BR/>In addition to seeing great authors, it's also cool to see people from out of town who only come in for the Festival - kind of like a reunion!<BR/><BR/>xo<BR/>Kathy SweeneyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33226151.post-81945351103805263862008-04-28T20:00:00.000-04:002008-04-28T20:00:00.000-04:00It is a good thing I can't go.

I'll have friends there, though. Will someone who's going please tell Diana Killian and Sara Rosett hi for me? And I'll see if I can fit it in next year, when I've actually got a book out. <BR/><BR/>Also, my mentor, the marvelous Hank Phillippi Ryan, won the Agatha this weekend for best first novel, so run out and buy Prime Time, y'all! <BR/><BR/>(Yes, the letters are more than usually squiggly today.

Same for agents.<BR/><BR/>I hope all y'all have a great time.Wilfred Bereswillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03019217952304685255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33226151.post-59663347152187353692008-04-28T07:52:00.000-04:002008-04-28T07:52:00.000-04:00Yeah, Annette, missing CPA is rough.

I'm going to get to the Festival early, as soon as the doors open, and try to be out of there before six, so I can get to class only a little late.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33226151.post-67554806265428851102008-04-28T07:10:00.000-04:002008-04-28T07:10:00.000-04:00Nice post, Gina.

The issue of the letters is one of the major complaints on the blogger message boards.

They aren't squiggly, they're just all mushed together so you can't tell what they are. <BR/><BR/>Gina, I'll see you at the Festival. It's the only event worth playing hooky from Citizens' Police Academy for. I have space in my trunk for books and a wad of cash to spend, so look out, here I come.<BR/><BR/>(Up to attempt number FOUR with the squiggly letters...)Annettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02755947919433555176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33226151.post-85666294804911598342008-04-28T04:50:00.000-04:002008-04-28T04:50:00.000-04:00Thanks for the reminder, Gina!I'm afraid I'm going...Thanks for the reminder, Gina!<BR/><BR/>I'm afraid I'm going to continue my annual ritual of missing the festival. Each year, I plan to attend. Each year, I miss it for one reason or another.<BR/><BR/>Maybe next year?<BR/><BR/>P.S. Is it my imagination, or are the squiggly letters getting harder?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
