Jean,<br />Glad to hear that Alan's workshop gave you some pointers that you'll apply to your manuscripts. Sounds like this was a great event.
Thanks for sharing this, Jean. Particularly liked to hear what you learned in the social media workshop. SO does this mean that I'll see you on FB now? WHen you go there, friend me! And yes, make it about others (which you do so well anyway) and not just yourself. That is key.
Wow! Jean you've provided a highpoint for me. I've just been mentioned in the same post as Alan Gratz! I had a blast at the conference and think Pam Zollman did a GREAT job. Thanks for your kind remarks and for what you do through the conference you direct. Blessings, E
You're right, Linda. It was a day well worth the investment of time and money.<br /><br />Are you coming to the SCBWI-C conference in Sept.?<br /><br />Jean
Yep. I've decided to join FB. Haven't done it yet. But I've scheduled a day this week to join.<br /><br />I finally caved in.<br /><br />Jean
You are so welcomed, Edie.<br /><br />When it comes to social media I hear that you ARE the wo-man!<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Jean
Jean,<br />I don't know if I'm coming to the conference yet. I had a job interview today. This may determine things for me. If I get the job, I'll do my best to attend the conference. Cross fingers.
Jean: I have a FB page. I have had the fleeting thought to start another one just for my writing ministry. But, I have qualms about the time, I spend on there.
I'll be praying about that job! I hope to see you in Sept.<br /><br />Jean
I, too, have concerns about the investment of time, QS. I'll look you up when I get going.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Jean
Jean, so proud of you for taking the Facebook leap!! Edie has a way of talking us into things like that!! Friend me!!<br />Love you!
Thanks, Kristi.<br /><br />We'll see how happy I am about it in about a week. :-)<br /><br />Jean
