Becky,
Will be praying that your mom does fine while you are gone. I know it's easy to feel torn when you need to be two places at once. I hope all goes well at home and that you will be able to enjoy ICRS while you are there. I'm glad you'll be able to check on your nephew while you are gone--will be praying for him, too.
Like you, I'm looking forward to going to ACFW! ICRS will be behind you soon and then you can look forward to September!

I, for one, God willing, plan on attending ACFW every year. It'll be hard to beat 2007 when Susan Downs presented me with a contract, but I'll try.

I'm pretty intimidated by ICRS.

I have adopted as my standard for success for anything I attempt, booksignings, public speaking, conferences....

It's a success if no one was killed.

So I'm really hoping to be able to call ICRS a success.

Hey Becky,

Just think of all that walking as burning calories. :)

I'm sooo looking forward to attending ACFW again. It's such a fun and well-focused conference--and it's only two months away!

Praying for your mom. I'm primary caregiver for my handicapped mom, so I can relate.

Hugs,

Vickie

HI Becky,
I will be praying for your mom. I am sure it is hard to be away when she is facing some health issues and you would rather be in Ohio with her.

I am excited for ACFW, and will look forward to seeing you there! Hope ICRS is tolerable and you find some time for refreshment and enjoy good connections with the Barbour team and other pub industry friends.

Blessings,
Carrie

I look forward to visiting my nephew in a FL hospital, but I'm reluctant to leave my mom at home while she is having some health issues.

Can you get away for some personal time while you'...

Can you get away for some personal time while you're at ICRS? See, if it's in Orlando, you could go visit The Mouse!

Aww, Becky, my heart goes out to you and what you'...

Aww, Becky, my heart goes out to you and what you'll have to endure at ICRS. Just put on a smile, recite the marketing facts everyone wants to hear, then slip away into your daydreams of ACFW just 70 short days from today. ICRS will pass in no time. :)

As managing editor of Barbour's fiction, is it any wonder you prefer folks of your own culture? Can't say that I blame you. And unlike those "annoying" authors at ICRS, you know you'll be welcomed with open arms by your loving authors from Barbour in September.

*hugs* to you.
