It was very nice to meet you, even if it was at the bar.
I agree, great event. I'll be back next year.
My god! I'm fat!
Fantastic pictures!!
You're not fat. You were sitting funny. And the light is weird.
You're not fat.
Okay. What's my excuse?
I hate it when you argue! All of you. I'm running away as soon as you go out bowling. This time I mean it!
Libby,
Trust me on this...
You are a hot momma
And Ben? Get off the computer and finish your homework.
For my first LIM conference I must say it is among my best memories of a conference. Getting to meet David Morrell still has my heart racing. The tings he said were sinpiring for me as a publisher and I have been working feverishly since I left the Friday night dinner. I so enjoyed sitting on the panels with Ben and Allison (I am sure I spelled that wrong). But anyway. I am so tickled to have met everyone, and really enjoyed talking to you Jon.
Joe,
Maybe you are just big boned.
