Pre-conference #RWA10
Now I am officially on vacation instead of working. I mean, the weekend was the weekend, so not officially vacation.
The more I look at RWA Nationals, the less prepared I am for it. At some level, I suspect I will be the odd man out – or at least, just the odd man.
Before the conference, or now looking at the schedule, maybe even at the conference, I need to finish the first draft of my novel. We’re only talking about 5k-10k max. Right now I am procrastinating. I am good at that. It’s not that I don’t want to finish, because I really do, but I just haven’t switched into vacation mode, or as I prefer to think of it, full-time writer mode.
I’m not really sure what to expect from this conference. I don’t really have any specific plans other than going and hoping my chapter mates let me tag along when something fun is going down. I mean, I don’t have any official editor/agent appointments. I have previously seen most, if not all, of the workshops that I am truly interested in. I’m not going for the pool. I have a very nice pool. If you figure out why I am there, let me know.
I would feel much better if I had finished my draft last week. I think I am going to go start a load of laundry and write for an hour or two. Maybe that will take my mind off the conference for a bit.
