Thanks Butterfly, also mentioned here: http://www.writersnews.co.uk/writers_talkback/comments.php?DiscussionID=174852&page=1#Item_1

I met you at the last conference!

I have a three minute pitch with Scott Pack but I have decided to use the time to interview him for my blog. Someone else did that the other year and it sounded fun.

Butterfly

Hi Kateyanne, I'm fine, but as always I go off and write and forget to keep in touch, a failing I fear, not the writing the forgetting.

Lou thanks for putting the other link on here. I think people will get a lot from the conference and as you know the pitching sessions go quickly. Good luck with your meeting with Scott Pack.

there are still places for this conference, so if you're looking for the perfect Christmas Present for a writer friend of yours, why not think of buying a ticket for them.
It is a brilliant day conference and for only £55 for the day, food, networking, seminars and workshops. There is something for everyone. Take a look and see what you think.

Whoo, Butterfly, I would really have to love someone to spend £55 on their gift!!!!!
But even if I did, there's no one I know anywhere near that area.

Butterfly

It was just a thought. We've got people coming from all over the country. It really is a great conference, well worth the trip.
Maybe next year we'll see you Dorothyd?

shouldn't think so ... leaving the island is SO expensive before I begin to travel anywhere! I only leave the island for promotional trips, I don't even go to see family.
