Nobody died and nothing burned down - unless you count my Internet connection a casualty. I’m working on it though, and hope to be online again, infecting your brains with yet more great ideas, soon enough =)

Unexpected Issues

In short, there’s not enough hours in a day for a conference! I’ll upload and edit the videos as soon as humanly possible, but it’s gonna take a bit. For now, just follow on Twitter.

Also just noticed that Liz Strauss has named me an SOB! Yeah, I need to pay better attention to that stuff… Thank you!

Almost There!

Catching the plane to Minneapolis in just a few more hours. Be sure you don’t miss out on all the great videos already on the conference playlist - there are 6 there so far (including a Diner Pajama Party!), with more coming every single day.

Check, Check, and Check

Walking out the door in T minus 3 hours for the bus to Atlanta, Georgia so I can catch a plane on Friday to Minneapolis, Minnesotta. Keep an eye on the conference video playlist for updates! =D

Coming Up:

  • Finally meeting in person long-time buddy Sam… and the room mates I’ve heard so much about over the years
  • Taking a commercial plane for the first time in my life that I can remember (the last time I was 4)
  • Going to Minneapolis for the first time (and this is also the first time I’ll remember being that far away from the east coast)
  • Meeting my fellow Hawaiian hotel roomie and bud for the conference Annie - she’s quite a character!
  • And then, liveblogging the conference =D

Wish me luck!

Humpday Quotables, 5/14

The role of a writer is not to say what we all can say,
but what we are unable to say
.”
Anais Nin

Substitute ‘damn’ every time you’re inclined to write ‘very;’
your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be

Humpday Quotables, 5/7

Writers, like teeth,
are divided into incisors and grinders.
