And I was surprised that she was 13-- not only was it a good pitch, but she had so much poise. I totally would have guessed at least 15, probs more like 16. And also, come on down! This is the non-apocalypse time of year. ;)<br /><br />@Karen: Do it! Book festivals rock! I imagine she will rewrite, because she got such a good reception at the event.Suhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11862479925124552922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8552468.post-10438519866657363902011-10-23T17:23:04.747-04:002011-10-23T17:23:04.747-04:00The destruction of a WiP is every writer's wor...The destruction of a WiP is every writer's worst nightmare. I hope that girl rewrites!<br /><br />I've never been to a book festival, but there's one at USC every year and I always say I'm going to go. I think 2012 is when I finally need to make it happen.Karen M.

It also sounds like a really good idea for a book. I hope she does rewrite it. Those fires...what a shame.<br /><br />Also, in answer to your questions: yes, no and soooooo much.J E Fritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03372746219262163566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8552468.post-65397046015146527622011-10-23T11:44:03.477-04:002011-10-23T11:44:03.477-04:00I want to come visit you and I'm probably no m...I want to come visit you and I'm probably no more than 25 miles up the road! Have stayed away from the festival only because we are cleaning furiously because my mother-in-law will be here in a few hours. Next year, I guess!Carolyn Evaine Countermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05955241245087668308noreply@blogger.com
