As Chair of the events at AMOA, I don’t get to see any of the rest of the Festival. That’s okay. We have fun, host the best writers, artists and photographers and have the best volunteers.
It sounds like a great festival! Have fun...

Fun for those in the area!
ReplyDeleteSorry, I'm in Atlanta right now, and that's as far west as I'm going for a while...
Hey Diane, we're just a hop, skip and plane ride from Atlanta.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a wonderful festival, Helen. Wish I were there (for more reasons than one). We're socked in with fog here on the mountain top at 38 degrees. :)
ReplyDelete38 degrees? Jean, around here that's a winter day - and we don't get many of them, even in winter!
ReplyDeleteHello!
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to stop in and check out your blog. I'm also participating in NaBloWriMo 2009, and I thought it would be a great thing to visit everyone else that was brave enough to sign up.
By the way, I love that we're both Helens :)
The Festival sounds fabulous, and I hope you have tons of fun!
Hello Helen - you don't see many Helens anymore. It's an "old" name. Maybe it'll make a comeback.
ReplyDeleteI've been trying to visit 5 NaBloWriMo blogs each day. Thank you for stopping by. Come back again.
It certainly sounds like fun!
