Title: Guess I'm going to Dallas.

DFWcon
 
Agent Jim McCarthy, with Dystel & Goderich, is confirmed for 2011 DFWcon: http://wp.me/pDizV-5d #authors #agents

A lot of other really great agents will be there as well.  Anyone else going to head over?  (Jim McCarthy is Richelle Mead's wonderful agent.)

Awesome! Not going myself, but here's hoping you get a few minutes to chat and pitch!

Fascinating... I may be going.  Won't know for sure until the end of the summer.

I live here, so probably! :P
ETA:
Actually I thought this would be the other DFW Convention. The authors and fans one Steven Brust went to last year.  So probably Not to the writer convention, but probably Yes to the other one when it rolls around again.

Which brings up a related question... though not specifically writing-related, is anyone going to Dragon Con?  Lots of writers and workshops there, though probably not agents.

That's in my neck of the woods. My friend's wife is actually a member of the DFW Writers’ Workshop, the hosting body. She's been trying to get me to go out to one of their meetings. I think I'm going to try and make it to this one.
