My First Writers Conference
I am preparing to head off into the great wide world of conferences tomorrow.
I will be volunteering at the Willamette Writers Conference this weekend, and the volunteer orientation is tomorrow afternoon.
Volunteering is a pretty sweet deal. You receive tremendously discounted registration with breakfast and lunch (with the option of a vegetarian lunch–gotta love the Pacific northwest). I’ll learn a lot about what goes on at a writers conference. In addition, having a job in common with other attendees will give me a conversation piece that should help me get over my fear of talking to people I don’t know.
I will be taking the morning shift all three days, so I’ll be free to attend sessions after lunch each day.
Find out more about the conference here. And, if you’ll be there, too, let me know. Maybe we’ll run into each other!
