Okay… I need to get a move on on some of this stuff, obviously. Why is it so frickin expensive to fly to Georgia, I ask you!

Very interesting convo in the comments trail of the last post. I love the idea of PANRebels… but really, who has time? The blog thing is good for conversation, it’s true, but it’s not like a list. In a blog, there is always someone who owns the conversation, because they own the blog. And alas, Julie, I can write as fast as I want, but SSG2 still won’t be out until July ’07.
By the way, rachel, they won’t let you go PRO. A friend of mine who tried to join after she sold her book but before she got her contract was told she wasn’t eligible. And finally, Heather, they *do* have PRO Mentors. Jenny Crusie is one and um… well, I think that’s it. I think it’s a very very special and specific privilege they provide for… well, after that I start getting confused about the politics. Maybe for past national PRO Liaisons? I dunno. Allison Brennan suggested I join PASIC, but I’m against the idea of joining yet ANOTHER chapter just so I can talk to published folk. I’m already a member of four: WRW, MRW, TARA, and CLW.

Ah well, who needs active lists at this point in my career? I have an awesome stable of writer friends to turn to whenever I need advice. So it’s not me. It’s the principle of the thing. There are others who don’t have a very supportive local chapter full of pubbed authors, who don’t have the whole Otto Roundtable, who don’t have my awesomely supportive agent. PAN should be revitalized on THEIR account.
