About every conference I attend—or even any occasion in which three or more writers happen to be talking—someone brings up the question, “Has the Internet changed writing for better of for worse?” I’m happy to say that there’s no longer any argument about whether or not the Internet has had any effect. The question remains how positive or negative.
I’m going to come down on the side of positive and here’s my defense: Acute mental self preservation.

Once again, I attended panels at Balticon and as always, I had a fantastic time. This year was a bit different for me, since my husband ended up in Florida for the weekend and I had my sister-in-law looking after my daughter. I was able to hang out and do all sorts of things I hadn’t been able to do in previous years, including get to talk to people and SHOP! Yes, I actually got to browse through the vendors tables this year! I approve of the new set-up for those as well.

February 21, 2009 held the 12th annual Bay to Ocean Writers’ Conference, put on by the Eastern Shore Writers’ Association. Having now gone, it’s easy to see why it’s sold out three years in a row. A more friendly and comfortable atmosphere you couldn’t hope to find anywhere. The food was light and delicious, the classrooms and auditorium had great acoustics and the technological infrastructure to make speaking there a fantastic experience.
