Behold!
My dorky glory shall descend upon the Backspace Conference in July despite the raising of both voices and pitchforks! Okay, okay, so nobody's raised any pitchforks...nor voices...not even one measley little torch...not yet. But one can always hope.
Regardless, I just sent in my registration fees. No backing out now. New York City, here I come! I'm completely geeked about this trip and I'm hoping to squeeze as much book-related fun out of it as I can. (With getting to meet all those wonderful people, hobnob with pros, see my agent and my crit partner in person...I'm likely to explode with happiness)
Today is a busy day for me, filled with paying bills, buying food, and chop-chop-chopping some of my hair off at the local butcher academy. Er...I mean..."salon". (The last time I let anyone else do my hair, they gave me bangs...BANGS! Can you imagine? Framing my adorable cherub face--no lack of self-esteem here--and making me look like Jabba the Hut...with bangs. It was awful.) Hopefully later I'll be jumping back into Wonderland. But for now, Dillon's on hold until I get all this other crap out of the way.
Now, why are you reading my blog? Shouldn't you be registering?

How about raising a flaming harbour-light drink up for you in a toast? Would that count as a "measley little torch"?
Congrats on making it official. I'm looking forward to meeting all the other backspacers, and hobnobing with the agents and editors, and of course the backspace celebs.
First thing I'm going to do there is give you a big hug and then buy you a drink at the bar... well, maybe the drink will have to wait for a bit. But you get the idea.
Yeah, we should probably wait for the mixer to drink. ;) But hugging! Oh heck yeah! I'm all about the love, Ewoh. :)
We're going to have the best time ever! Everyone should be so lucky.
Congrats... don't forget to meet up with ewoh nairb... he's a good egg, if a bit soft-boiled... I think you'd look adorable in BANGS... ;)
WOOT! We are gonna have a FABULOUS time in NYC!!!!!!
Adrift, hold your tongue. ;) I look AWFUL in bangs. But, if I do say so, I look damn adorable in my new haircut, which I think I'll keep for the conference. And WHY AREN'T YOU GOING??? *kish*
WOOT! Jackie! We're going to have an absolute BLAST!!! OMG, we so have to go shopping while I'm there...
