~Great writers (the published, the almost published, and the just starting out) who are also great people.

~Old friends.

~New faces. I love it when people come up and introduce themselves.

~Smiles and hugs.

~Learning more about the craft.

~Authors whose eyes light up when they talk about their book/s. Their passion is contagious. I love hearing the stories behind the stories.

~Try to become more adept at matching name tags and faces.

It sounds wonderful. Absolutely. and your blog looks great. I've noticed several authors changing up their blogs. Did you pick up some tips at conference?
Midnight sushi sounds good. Can I come next year? ;)

Thank you for the sweet comment on my blog! It was a big trial and error thing I undertook a couple of weeks ago. I am not so great with html and after losing several things, like my blog/friend list, I'm amazed I came out with anything coherent.

I picked up some great tips at the conference. Hope to post them soon.

Sushi next year? You bet--I'll add you to the list. Looking forward to it!
