Great lineup! I’m very excited.
woo-hoo (and hee-haw, cowgirls)!
Again, thanks for creating this awesome event.
Sounds awesome. I’m planning to catch whatever chats I can. Thanks for doing all this.
SO excited to have all these amazing professionals participate! Huge THANKS to them.
I read through the line-up and I kept saying to myself: OH MAN. THIS IS GOING TO BE AWESOME.
Thank you so much for planning this. It really helps since I live in an area where there aren’t as many writing conventions as other areas.
I can’t wait!
This is an amazing line-up. Wow!
What time does this start? Is there an itinerary somewhere? I’ve only found the dates – August 16th – August 18th. Thanks
