OMFG!!!! – This Just In

Sep 29, 2008 23 Comments by

Remember that awesome twice-mentioned writer’s conference that I was barely able to attend because of the IVF egg retrieval that happened smack dab in the middle of the weekend?

Well, I just want to say that not only was the Los Angeles Southern California Writer’s Conference MORE than kind about re-scheduling all of my agent and editor appointments, but also I just found out that they gave me an award for Outstanding Fiction for my novel,  A Molly Ringwald Ending.

So, that’s a nice ego boost when I most needed it, and somewhat embarassingly, made me cry at work — though I suspect that has more to do with all the hormones I’m on than anything else. I’m still a cynical writer, so please don’t go around telling people I’ve gone soft.

Anyway, see the full list here. And find out more about the conference here.

Thanks, SCWC!

    In all fairness, Em, I didn’t steal your brother’s name. I stole YOUR last name and forgot that your brother’s first name was the same as my hero’s. Just saying…
