June Slog

I will be glad to see June end. I've posted infrequently, read blogs less frequently, and have even gone days without checking email. Yes, that's true! And this is even before vacation in a land of limited online access....

This is probably good, of course, as anyone who's attended the SCBWI Summer Conference can tell you that you need weeks of prep time to be able to milk the maximum amount of fun and knowledge out of the four days.

I'd also note, by the way, that my newly minted shortcut turned poor today when an accident caused traffic to back waaaaay up. And where was this traffic before? Hmmm. This does not, of course, doom the shortcut. It merely shows the power of the blogosphere....

See? You blog about a shortcut and suddenly the entire universe knows and then . . . and then . . . you're lookin' for a new route again.

Vicious cycle.

There are no shortcuts in life, Greg. Slow down before you hurt somebody. I don't want you jailed before I get to L.A.

Sheesh.

Lisa -- what's impressive is that I didn't mention anything else about the shortcut (where it was, what it cuts short to) yet STILL it filled up. Remarkable.

And C.W. -- it's easy. Sleep a ton and read everything by everyone who's gonna be there :-) Does sound like a good post topic!
