Whew. Just flew back from conference a few hours ago, and boy am I exhausted. Exhilarated, but exhausted. I think it’s safe to say we all had a fantastic time seeing each other and giving our combined workshop. And even better, we got to meet some of the Jaunty posters – like Andrea, Lacey and Crystal! – though I missed Crystal!
I tried to find y’all after the signing, but ended up wandering around the Grandstand Lounge and Garden Level to no avail. I knew I should have grabbed Jenna to reaffirm the location before running out of the signing to hit the loo – the three hours got me! But I’m looking forward to seeing the pictures from the get together.
Here are some pics from this weekend. Can’t wait to see everyone’s!

We missed you, Kim!
Thanks so much for posting the pictures, Anne – great memories of Atlanta. Well, great except for the five d*mn pounds I gained! What was all that talk about the calories you eat at conference not counting?

Great pictures, Anne! I’m slowly getting mine up, too. It was fun seeing everyone, but I’m sorry you missed us Anne! BUMMER! We were sitting in the lounge area on the Garden Level right in front of the elevators.
My fault!!

Great pictures, everyone looks gorgeous.
Anne, I hate that I missed you. I actually missed quite a few authors I was hoping to meet. And you guys were even in alphabetical order!! I don’t think I *do* crowds very well. Next time I’m bringing a check list.

I’m guessing those are Robyn’s toes…
I almost didn’t wear the hat, but my four roomies (yes, there were 5 of us in one room, and we’re still all friends) convinced me to let my inner extrovert out to play for the night. Too bad you can’t see the breeches and bucket-top boots. I’ve gotten as far as uploading my pics to my hard drive, but haven’t put them up on my web site yet.
It was so cool to meet people in person, after conversing with them on the boards!
Anne, thanks so much for posting these images.
