But, what does one do when one can't attend these connecting conferences? I just can't make any, being bedridden!! But, my stories are still worth having someone read or even listen to, at least maybe a page or two. <br />Hoo-ray for conferences, they're great for "walking" writers, but us stay-at-homes need a venue to promote our goods too!! Hope the writing world works on that one. Oh, by the way, did I mention I write children stories, YA-Fiction, and a couple of general life-teaching types from memories of "MY" Father!parkermartihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05809933745152391822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17040756.post-39255631507541932602011-07-10T14:42:18.460-04:002011-07-10T14:42:18.460-04:00I'm a veteran nose bleeder, so I feel your pai...I'm a veteran nose bleeder, so I feel your pain.

I always carried my husband's music CDs with me too whenever I flew in case I sat next to some big rockstar (who got stuck in coach!) who wanted to record one of his songs and let us retire.
