I was a first-time attender at the 2008 ACFW conference in September.  What a wonderful experience!  The workshops were great, but I tell you connecting with other writers was the highlight for me. 

The awards banquet was a thrill!  I got to meet some terrific writers....and hopefully made some new friends.  Here are a few of the mug shots.  I was shameless! 

 

 

#1~ Tamera Alexander was gracious and kind as I twisted her arm to pose with me. Her workshop was terrific.

 

 

 

#2~   Feature Speaker Angela Hunt was inspirational.

 

 

 

 

 

 

#3~ Here I am with my dear friend, Phyllis Nichols.  We met last year at Mt. Hermon and have become soul mates.  Look for her first book, 'Carolina's Song' in the future.  It's a lovely, lovely story.

 

 

 

#4~ Does standing in the middle of writers Rene Gutteridge and Reb Raney make me a groupie? These ladies rock!

#6~ Here I am with the lovely Patti Lacy.  Patti's book, 'An Irishwoman's Tale" has just hit the stores.  It is a must read!  Thank you, Patti, for all your encouragement!
