I've attended a few of them, and they were small but great fun, and very important to Canadian mystery authors. The Canadian mystery scene (and the scene in general) needs these kinds of events for so many reasons...and it's a real shame that we've lost one, even if it's just for one year.<BR/><BR/>Ah well...time to focus on LCC in a few weeks. I look forward to seeing you there, and finally getting my hands on a copy of your book. ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18499463.post-1168750082276675072007-01-13T23:48:00.000-05:002007-01-13T23:48:00.000-05:00I know Angie.

I'm definitely in the limited resource faction, so shelling out cash for hotel reservations, travel expenses AND convention fees is no small matter. That totally sucks.angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01751466673491487048noreply@blogger.com
