Oh, I love this! I'm so glad you were able to attend the meeting and would love to hear more about it!

I always feel like the person that should be in the kitchen washing dishes or something at writers' events. I know, it is silly, but I know there are so much smarter people than me in the room! But I keep hoping that if I sit next to them, it will rub off.

Right! I listened to your talk at the CLP writers conference recently and enjoyed it thoroughly.🤗

Oh Emily! I smiled and smiled as I read this! And I thought how much alike we are. I think you are suffering from “imposter syndrome!”

How fun it was to pretend together to be writers for a weekend 😅

Ha! Back in my earlier days I attended a couple or a few or maybe even just one—I don't honestly even remember—writers conferences… I get most all of what you wrote here. 🤭 Very fun read.

What a delightful and relatable read!

I’ve always felt that should I manage to make it to a writers conference someday I would likely be led away in handcuffs the minute those intellectual police discovered my true identity. 😆

This is so terribly relatable. And I'm SO glad you got to go to the conference. And I'm with Nola's first sentences. 💗

Sorry to be one of the people texting you on your important weekend. Can't wait to catch up with you.

My goodness, your messages were not a bother at all. None of them were. They just amused me and made me realize which world I really belong to.

You are one of my most admired writer friends. So there.

I positively loved this! It was so relatable and funny and inspiring. Let's work on getting smart together. (Although, i already think you are.)
