I had a very good weekend.
My lovely wife wanted to go to Oregon for her birthday. I took off Friday, which was difficult. I had to work extra all week to have the time.
We visited with friends, went to see Wolverine, and had a lot of fun.
There was a Camarilla game in Vancouver, but I really wasn't in the mood for a game. I sat in the corner and chatted with people
I'm sometimes a closed off person. I can feel comfortable discussing the Camarilla because I know it was a common interest and a safe topic. I was chatting with Sam and Sara when Lisa introduced the topic of writing. She is really my best marketing ever. They were both somehow surprised that I was a writer. We talked about writing, roman history, horror theory, game, theory, and all sorts of fun topics.
I think I am going to make more of an effort to be less shy. I thought about it, I think that it has held me back by not going to conventions and making connections.
This year, I made a lot of strides in my technical writing because I was able to sell the work. I think I need to learn to do that with my fiction.
