Oregon Christian Writers Conference

In two more days I will attend my first writers conference! Gathering up my courage and absorbing the wisdom of others, I have begun to take the next "baby step" on my road to... Where is it I am going? - a proofreader? Oh, yeah... I get lost so easily. My Lord calls me His sheep. He knows me very well. I trip along through the grass, munching and chasing; then something catches my eye. I look down at my feet and see that they are off the path! Oh, no! How did that happen? I am a sheep. "Baaa!" I expect I will be dramatically overwhelmed by teachers, authors, publishing staff, displays, choices, and speakers at the conference. At times I will be like a kid in a candy store, and other times I'll be . . . (lost!) Will I be the only proofreader there? Will I be the only one who doesn't talk fast? Will I appear as close to clueless as I feel? "Baaa!" I'm so glad that God loves sheep! --note of explanation: this post displays fragmented thoughts be
