Last week, I had the amazing opportunity of attending this year's World Science Fiction Convention in Spokane, Washington. I guess you could say I once again caught the 'convention' fever. I loved the panels, hosted by experienced writers and the chance to pick their brains on every writing subject under the sun.
If anyone out there is toying with the idea of becoming a professional writer, I highly recommend checking out a local science fiction or fantasy convention. When I first started going to the conventions, I was heavily focused on going to panels and absorbing as much information as possible. Now, things are shifting towards networking and meeting new people. I can't wait until November, when the Oregon Science Fiction Convention kicks into gear. There's a lot going on this fall, stay tuned for more!
