Meeting New Friends

I had a wonderful morning this morning. I got to meet one of my fellow Cerridwen Press authors at a nice little cafe here in my hometown. She was in the area visiting relatives and we grabbed the chance to hook up. It's so much fun to meet with other writers - get their perspective on the business, how they write, what they write, everything.

So we sat and we talked and we ate and talked some more until it was time for her to leave - she was taking her niece to see the Harry Potter movie. But I know I've found a new friend - and the best thing is, we're both going to the New Jersey conference in October so we'll be able to sit and talk and eat and talk some more. :)

Tips and Teasers: You are at a family reunion. Your great-aunt Bertie pulls you aside and whispers in your ear. What she says is so shocking, you can barely handle the news. What did she tell you?

Thought for the day: "How many times you fall is not what matters. What is important is how many times you get back up." – (old expression, anon.)
