Here we are on the beach in Santa Cruz, CA. The sunglass-clad cuties with me are Lori Sinclair, Dee Aspin and Joanne Kraft.
Praying on the beach was a great start to a full day. Our first official conference activity was lunch, which was fabulous. The food at Mount Hermon is always good. I'm glad we do a lot of hilly walking here to offset the calories.
Later I connected with several friends—real and virtual. It is fun to meet Facebook and Twitter friends in person.
It's always fun to meet the authors of really great books and there are quite a few of them here. The book-signing party will be a blast.
I met an agent today and will be pitching my devotional book to her tomorrow afternoon. (That's a cue for my prayer warrior friends to pray! Thanks.)
Thankfully, I am not the nervous wreck I have been at past writer's conferences. The editors and agents are just not as frightening as they have been in the past. Or maybe I'm growing thicker skin.
It's getting late and we have to get up at the crack of dawn again tomorrow, so I'm off to bed. More tomorrow.
Gratefully,
Beth
