Meet your favorite Christian authors, learn to write...

Wow, I can hardly wait for the American Christian Fiction Writers Conference in Dallas, Texas, my birthday weekend September 21-24.

What a birthday present, seeing once again all these fun and talented people,

...Brandilyn Collins, Randy Ingermanson, Terry Burns,

Bummed. I can't go this year! I'll have a top ten list of things to do while everyone else is at the AFCW Conference.

Too bad. Well, you'll hear all about it when we get back. You can even buy the CDs if you like, or MP3.

I thought I was the only one getting left behind! We need to start a thread on the forum for those of us who will be at home that weekend!

Great pictures Margo! Funny, you think you know exactly what someone looks like from their blog picture, then in another picture they'll look totally different. When you get back from the conference you'll have to post tons of pics:)

I was just reading a prophecy site. You had me worried there for a minute, Georgian! LOL

This will be my first ACFW conference. Heck, this will be my first writer's conference period. Scared to death. I'm just hoping I won't slip on the banana peel that is left by the sophomores to torture the rookies or pee myself or something else rotten.
