I was in the Continuous Conversation at the same time the major stars were speaking next door (Sara Paretsky, Sue Grafton, Michael Connelly). Why everyone went to that and didn't come to the Conversation - I dunno. Thanks to the handful of folks who were there! :-)

Addendum - the conference was intrinsically boring - I didn't mean to imply it was because of my husband! He and I went to Bouchercon last year in Baltimore, and we had a good time.

Seems like a lot of people got sick this weekend - I did too, but I wasn't at Bouchercon, just a Unitarian Universalist conference in Rochester, NY (big bore - I went with my husband.)<br />
<br />
Looking forward to the <a href="http://www.ppwebcon.com" target="_blank">Poisoned Pen WebCon</a> this Saturday, October 24th. Still time to register, and it's only $25. And if I'm feeling crappy, I can just sit at my computer in my nightgown. In fact, that's what I'm going to do anyway, unless I get Skype…

I'm almost afraid to say anything , lest I expose myself and spoil the effusive praise being heaped upon me.<br />

I commented on Jon's other thread, so this will be short. The Continuous Conversation with Jon, JT Ellison, and James Patrick Hunt was very nice, as the three of them got along well and the conversation was unforced. It was great to meet Jon; sorry we didn't hook up later.<br />

Jack, I'm sorry you're laid up. You might be happy to know your panel left your seat vacant in their version of the Missing Man formation. The moderator mentioned you were unable to attend for medical reasons, and that all the other panelists would now have to talk 25% more. Thanks for the text message.<br />

Thanks, IJ. I hope to run into you some day, as well. Jeez, Jack – feel better soon!tag:crimespace.ning.com,2009-10-19:537324:Comment:2169012009-10-19T15:41:24.055ZTom Barclayhttp://crimespace.ning.com/profile/MacCZpilot

I looked for Dana in the hotel bar at some length Saturday night--parked myself on a stool for a couple of hours, but didn't see him. No doubt he was out carousing. He did stop by the continuous conversation thing while I was there, so at least I got to meet him--great guy, funny and very smart.

I spent the whole freaking weekend in bed -- lost my airfare, the hotel room, my registration fee, and the good wishes of the volunteer staff which I failed to join as promised. Geez, what a bust. Currently on day five of Amoxocillin "with a boost," whatever that is. I had a panel, too.<br />
<br />
When is my luck going to turn?
