I was there, too, Jennifer, and everything you say about the “net” and social importance of events like these is spot on. If someone’s on the fence about going, but is truly committed to a career, conferences are a must. If only to make friends and remind yourself you’re not alone.
This is a fantastic post, wonderful insights on attending writers conferences in general. And regarding ThrillerFest, which is underway right now — hope you are having a great time, and good luck with your panel!

Hi Jason, thanks for saying this. I hope you had a great time at the conference. I came back exhausted but also excited about who I got to meet.
