Writing is a journey, one I truly love and enjoy, but it can sometimes feel rather lonely. Hour after hour, alone, at the computer, pouring your heart and soul into each word. But I’ve learned I’m not alone, in fact, I’ve been blessed to be in contact with some amazing people, both writers and non-writers.
I want to share a bit of that with you. Each week I’ll be spotlighting someone I’ve come in contact with during my journey. Thanks for stepping along side of me—all of you—during this exciting time!

I met Heather at a writer’s conference a couple of years ago. It was a small conference so we got to know the people attending pretty well. Heather and I really hit it off.
She’s such a fun, encouraging and energetic person. Not to mention a great writer. We spent quite a few hours on that last day of the conference hanging out in a coffeeshop writing.
The conference was great, yes, but I think meeting Heather was a major part of the reason why I enjoyed the conference so much.
Go check out her website and be sure to find her on Goodreads, too, because her book is up for Amazing Book Covers of 2012! And it IS amazing!
I’m so glad I met you, Heather. I know we’ll stay in touch for years to come!
And remember…”Did you hear that?”
So awesome!
Small conferences are the best to meet and make new writer friends.
Love this feature as you know! Another wonderful friend for you.
You know so many interesting people. In awe. Hi, Heather.
Making friends at conferences is one of the best parts of writing. You never know who you’ll end up clicking with!
I love meeting writers at conferences. Halflings sounds like a great read. 🙂
Oh Lynn, I just saw this and almost cried! I feel the same way about you and know we were meant to meet at that conference! You rock! And yes, I DID hear that!
Great to make writing friends and hang out writing!
