While I was emailing a few people that have ties to the Writers of the Future writing workshop, I realized that it starts today. What a great time that I had when I was there. I can't believe it's been six years already–it's been over seven since I found out I'd placed in Quarter 1 of the 2003 contest year (the anthology came out in August of the next year). It was a week filled with great instruction, wonderful company, a lot of charged, optimistic conversation, and an unforgettable ceremony at the end of the week. Those kids have no idea what's lying in store for them.
Good luck to them all…
