Trying to decide GRL next year or not By S.C. Wynne
Hello all!
I see all these posts about GRL 2018 and I want to go next year, but a part of me doesn't. It's a weird thing. I have the desire to go, but I think that's because the idea of things seems so much more amazing that the reality sometimes. Reality is usually a let down. Yes, I sound like one of my characters. lol
However, there are a lot of people I'd love to actually meet in person; readers, authors, bloggers. I know there would be wonderful times, but also awkward moments because... people.
I'm sure the costume party would be fun. Will the Cocky Boys be there next year? Dare I hope, yes? lol I'd love a photo with Carter Dane and plenty of other sexy Cocky Boys. Or some of my favorite narrators. They seem to be a bigger draw these days. I'd love to meet Kale Williams. His voice is fantastic.
Mostly, I think I'd adore just hanging out with other authors and readers in the bar area. I mean, do you really ever know anyone until they have two margaritas or a beer minimum in them? lol I don't think so. Until someone is buzzed, they're probably trying really hard to be something they're not. I could be wrong. Maybe that's only me? lol
It's quite a commitment to go to a conference. Some authors are so good about going to all of them. Then there's swag, shipping books and committing to panels or readings. It's like you have to be a grown up or something. Why would that be necessary? :P
The good part is, there's time to decide. I'm very glad about this. Will I make the right choice? Who knows. Possibly? What even is the right choice? lol Sometimes the mystery of an author is better than the reality.
