Is anyone going to this, or who lives close enough to the convention that I can possibly stay with? I don't smoke? Or drink (very much and only with coworkers) and free books?

The addy is:
600 Commonwealth Place,
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States 15222

And the Convention takes place between April 16-20th. The price is a little high ($465 for the whole convention and all workshops) and then there's the aspiring authors workshop ($125). If I don't get into the Odyssey Writer's Workshop I'm going to go to this I think. Its 5 days long! And Check out the list of authors! (over 200!) Did I mention the Mr. Romance Cover Model reunion? XD (i'm sorry anything with Fabio is going to be hilarious...)

Anyhow...anyone interested?

I'm going to Lori Foster's Readers and Authors Get Together instead. Of course it is only 40 minutes from home...but I am staying at the hotel.

CTGMom and SandDanz are also planning on attending.

::nods:: I wanted to go to that as well, but I think I'm gonna have to say no to it since I can't really afford the airfare nor can I drive that far. Pittsburgh, at least, I know how to get to (and its only about 4 hours away). Boyfriend said he might have a friend I can stay with even. :D

I'm thinking about going to the Lori Foster one too. The PA one is just too expensive for me.

well it is expensive, though it is longer of course, plus I'm interested in the Aspiring Writer's Track...

Sorry I don't live near Pittsburgh, but if you'd like to do a fly-by meetup, let me know. :lol:
