I'll be sure to look for the people who seem to be alone or with only 1 or 2 people. <br /><br />Thanks for having me as your guest. :oKatherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13752337710626176062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2295513765923392477.post-24979280325126702042012-01-11T14:14:15.977-08:002012-01-11T14:14:15.977-08:00Hi Lynne,

I've been checking out some other writing groups in the area the last year or so but you wouldn't believe the reactions I've gotten when I say I write romance, none of them positive.Katherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13752337710626176062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2295513765923392477.post-68040729004211565362012-01-11T14:04:20.738-08:002012-01-11T14:04:20.738-08:00Hey Katherine--thanks so much for sharing your sto...Hey Katherine--thanks so much for sharing your story with us. Each conference you go to gets easier, trust me. I always look for the people who are standing/sitting by themselves. Those are the people I'm most comfortable talking to. But put me with a group, and I clam up.<br /><br />Just know, when you decide to brave Nationals someday, a bunch of us fellow shy/introverted types will be around to hang out with. :)Rebecca J.

It is always great to spend time with other writers - people who understand we're hermits who occasionally are forced out of our caves!Lynne Marshallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17156587180087372120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2295513765923392477.post-73792108932621183102012-01-11T09:46:11.757-08:002012-01-11T09:46:11.757-08:00Hi Alison, It's taking that first step that...Hi Alison, It's taking that first step that's so hard. I haven't been to Nationals yet. The size of it still intimidates me. I guess I need to put that on my "things to achieve as a writer" list. :o)Katherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13752337710626176062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2295513765923392477.post-58072273499027262222012-01-11T09:26:24.213-08:002012-01-11T09:26:24.213-08:00Oh, Katherine, you sound just like me at conferenc...Oh, Katherine, you sound just like me at conferences. However, after three Nationals, I've taught myself to become very bold (for me)! It really is so easy to make new friends if you can force yourself to take the first step.Alison Hendersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12725250883303287946noreply@blogger.com
