Surely your relatives can point you toward a baguette. Can’t wait to see what this Nutella is that everyone talks about.

Chat up your book now, Terri. Finish it by the end of September and pitch it in October.

Santa
Who really should be following her own advice.

BTW, I’m packed. Just have to throw in jewelry and the Nutella. Don’t ask.

Does anyone know where you can get a nice French baguette in SF?

Terri, you are so in trouble. J Perry is HYPED up…

Is it just me? Or did any one else hear the Jaw’s theme song when J Perry said “And Julie, if ever–whenever, Mrs.–you ARE going to eventually room with me … and love it.”

Gillian - we’ll miss you!

J - I am NOT pitching an unfinished book. Next year, maybe even in October, but not this year.

Kelly - Bless your heart! First you say my pic is pretty (over on blogger) and then you like my one liner. You’re too good to me!

Terri: ‘An emotional joyride in which fate throws two damaged people into each others’ paths and together they learn that letting go is ultimately a matter of holding on.’

That makes perfect sense to me! And it totally whets my appetite for more. Great job!

Yes, in answer to Terrio’s question. I DO want to read your novel … even if I am stuffed in your suitcase.

Now that you’ve got your “elevator pitch,” write the sit-down pitch, because I’m hauling you to my appointment and you are pitching in place of a no-show.

And Julie, if ever–whenever, Mrs.–you ARE going to eventually room with me … and love it.

Steph - since I’m getting NO work done, I’ve been working on a one sentence answer to that question. What do you think?

An emotional joyride in which fate throws two damaged people into each others’ paths and together they learn that letting go is ultimately a matter of holding on.

Does that make sense to anyone and would it make you want to know more?

I’m way too distracted. This was supposed to be a super productive day and all I can think about is SF. Gah! Terri, let’s trade awkward “what’s your book about?” stories at the end of the conference! I still have NO CLUE. We’ll probably get to the lunch with all the authors on Saturday and I’ll sit there and stutter out a response. GAH!

Haleigh - are we supposed to be concentrating at work?! If so, I’m in big trouble…

Irish - Thanks so much. I’ll have tons of pictures, never fear. I might even have to buy another memory stick just in case. LOL!
