I forgot to mention in my previous post—about the writers
conference—that Jody Lynn Nye brought in professionals to give us expert
opinion about the real world of writing.
First was Anne Sowards, an editor at Ace Books. I met her
several years ago at a Worldcon. Unfortunately, I don’t have a picture of her,
since it would be outré
to take pictures during the conference.
We also had Lucienne Diver, an agent at the Knight Agency. I
do have a picture of her from a Worldcon in 2011.
We also had S.M. Stirling speak. Because of an alternate
history he’s written, he was quite the expert on Theodore Roosevelt, regaling us
with interesting trivia.
All in all, this was a series of experts who were able to answer
our questions about this most quirky of careers.
