RWA 08 Conference

RWA 08 Conference in San Francisco. I’m sorry I’m missing the conference this year, but I’m going to stalk follow along by reading my friends’ blogs and twitter tweets from the conference. I’ll continually update this page with links to blog posts about the RWA conference (hopefully they’ll have lots of pics! )and add in gossip tidbits I learn as the week goes on. I’ll add the new links to the top and let the older links scroll down. Check back often. There’s always something happening at RWA.

I told them it was going to be cold, does no one listen?

goodie room goodness!

Rundown on the hotel, and good comment. RWA needs to negotiate for free internet access at the conference. I know BlogHer did this for their conference.

Michelle Willingham’s blog. She’ll be posting regular updates. Or else. I was supposed to room with her this year. And she can drink this year! Last year she was preggo at the conference (an adorable preggo person, I’ll tell you that.)

Wrong place wrong time. Deb Dixon. Very funny…since it didn’t happen to me!
