Sandi Shilhanek | RWA....Thus Far

This is my first time to be "attending" RWA from start to finish. My trip started at the of dawn on Sunday...well ok, 7:00 AMish at a McDonalds very close to my home. There I met Sara, Pat, Gwen, Rosemary Clement-Moore and Daniel, who was just helping us to load and not actually coming on our exciting road trip. Follow me on Twitter

We drove to Georgia where we spent the night. The next day we picked up Faye and
continued into Florida and Disney World. The entire road trip was so exciting
because I've never before been to Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, or yes even
Disney in Florida! Since we stopped in each of these states I can now officially
add them to the places I've visited.

Lovely rooms here at the Boardwalk Resort, lovely, wonderful friends to share a once in a lifetime experience with, and the opportunity to meet so many wonderful authors I can't possibly name them all here. I do have to mention meeting Tara Taylor Quinn, Sharon Sala and of course I had my first face to face with Robyn Carr!

Ok... time to go have more great once in a lifetime experiences. Until Sunday
happy page turning!

Have fun for those of us who can't get anywhere near the RWA conference.

Have a blast. I love going on sidetrips, especially the shopping and eating parts with great company and new vistas.

I've never been to that part of the country, let alone to the RWA. It has to be an experience you'll never forget, and I can't wait to read more about it!! Talking with the Authors always has to be fun, along with seeing Walt Disney World. Have a wonderful time. Wish I cold be there, but you'll have to be our eyes and ears!!

You visited a beautiful part of our country. Then the RWA meeting has to be a blast. I used to attend national conventions of writers (not novelists)and they were more fun than folks can imagine who have never been to one. Tell us more!

I so wish I was in Florida, but I had reservations for Nashville. So I am here following RWA on everyone's blogs. HAVE A GREAT TIME.

Wish I could have been thee too, sounds like a awesome time. Maybe one day. We just made a road trip that way and it was the first time for us as well. We loved Florida, didn't go to Disney World this time. Maybe next time.
Best Wishes.
