It's Saturday morning, and I'm back and ready for action! I like going to conferences for two main reasons. First, I can get lots of ideas to use in my work. Second, I get lonely as a freelancer. It's so exciting and inspiring to be around other ink-stained wretches. When I see other people making a good living doing what they love, I know that I can, too.

But the ASJA conference has one serious problem: too many concurrent sessions for any one person to attend. The good thing is that the ASJA sells tapes of the conference presentations to attendees and to those who stayed home. I'll be ordering a few myself, and I'll be reporting on those panels that I do attend today.
