Fun Workshop!

I got back Sunday afternoon from a fun weekend in Couer d'Alene at a writers' workshop hosted by Idaho Writers' League. Had a lot of fun with my car-and-room-mates, Viv and Bonn, listening to Randy Ingermanson instruct on various writing and web-building skills, and just hanging out.

Here's Randy with *The Canadian Contingent*



We also had individual critiques on five pages (which we'd sent in ahead of time). I've found a few good ideas to tweak up the opening scene of Quest to Be Queen, thanks to the discussion with Randy.



Good times. Now I have a few days to re-group before heading out to Victoria.

Well, if *he's* given you advice on the first five pages, that means I can skip those in my crit, right?

Glad you had a great time!

LOL, nice try Erin. NO. I need your great wisdom, too, because he hasn't read the rest of the book and you will have. Right? ;;)
