When Words Collide - 2011
Had a blast yesterday at the first annual “When Words Collide” writers’ conference here in Calgary. A great bunch of co-presenters, and well attended in general, the two panels I participated in seemed to just fly by. I suspect this will become a major draw for writers (and fans of great writing) from far and wide:
(Hope the link stays live, sometimes Safari forgets how to do that when you copy & paste...)
My two sessions were on writing in general, then pitches and queries. The other members of my panels were from diverse backgrounds, so I think that really gave attendees a wide range of informed opinions, no matter what genre or market they are writing (or hoping to write) for.
I need to sign up for myself next year though - hearing all about the festivities in the hospitality suite made me feel like I really missed out on a major part of the festival :-)
Until next year!!
Chow for now...

From your animated persona when you picked me up from work immediately following the conference, I knew instantly it was a hit! Very cool Mr. That Dan Guy! Very cool!
