Did you think I’d miss my day again? Well I almost did. I’m sorry I’ve been MIA, in my defense I had ankle surgery. I will notgo into the gory details. But instead tell you what else has occupied my time. I’ve been trying to find agents for our Utah RWAConference. We finally found our 2nd agent. It is so late, I’ll just post the announcement. If you’d like to do a conference but feel overwhelmed with a large one, well this is a great small one. A lot of opportunities also.
