A Writers Rendezvous

I spent last Thursday, Friday and Saturday at the Idaho Writers Rendezvous. This amazing 3-day conference happens right here in Boise every May, and is open to all writers and aspiring writers.

I felt especially blessed and honored to meet one of my favorite authors, Katherine Neville, and have the opportunity to share lunch with her and get to know this talented person. Katherine is author of The Eight, a novel which is published in over 40 languages and has sold over 10 million copies! I’m getting ready to read The Fire, her sequel to The Eight.

The lineup of speakers and workshops was fantastic, as always, and I feel each year the Rendezvous gets better and better.

I get inspired and motivated by all the speakers and authors, but I also enjoy just connecting with friends that I haven’t seen in a while to discuss our writing projects, challenges and successes.

We topped off the event Saturday night with Basque dancers, a Basque dinner, and handing out awards to the winners of our 2015 writing contests.
