Successful Willamette Writers conference

I had a great time at the Willamette Writers Conference. Did you know Willamette Writers is the largest writers’ organization in Oregon and one of the largest in the United States? Founded in Portland in 1965, it has grown to over 1,800 members with branches in Southern Oregon, Mid-Valley, Salem and the Oregon Coast. Great place to network with other writers. Best session I attended was "Power Networking" presented by Julie Fast. It is great to know in-person networking lives on and is the best way to make connections. I pitched Dubious Grief: a memoir to Sage Publications - Krista Lyons asked for my book proposal. Yeah! Now I'm revising the proposal and will send it off in a week or so.
