Getting Ready for Milford

[jacey]

This year's Milford is 22nd - 29th September, so I'm off to the wilds of Welsh Wales and leaving BB and the dog to amuse (and feed) themselves.  Fourteen writers kettled up in the middle of nowhere for a week. Looking forward to seeing la_marquise_de_, mevennen, davegullen and teriegarrison amongst others. Intensive critting of submitted works (one or two pieces each), some reading/writing time, some thinking time, a private lake for gazing at or walking to, three square meals a day (and no washing up after) plus cake, good company and sociable evenings.

What's not to like?

I've done all the advance reading and critting that can be done (still waiting for one piece to arrive by email) so my mornings will largely be free for writing or taking the odd trip into Caernarfon.

I have today to get my act together.

So... what have I forgotten?

I have one-half crit left, plus the outstanding one, and then I, too, am done and free. Since we're both transporting a carful of others there and back again, maybe we should plan a morning outing to the craft suppy shop? See you on the morrow!

Have fun!

I will be back some time, but sadly not this year.

Must finish the novel rewrites, and the short story rewrites and the new short stories and the........

Looking forward to seeing you!

Yes, looking forward to seeing you! We've loaded the car, organised staff, cooking dinner and I've read everything except Jim's incoming and it looks as though that's on the way. Awaiting some disaster but failing that, see you tomorrow afternoon.

Have a great time. I wish I could go this year, too.
