Seriously, if I'm gonna attend a professional conference, I don't want sessions on personal improvement (persuasiveness, time management, justifying conference attendance). I don't even want to know how to justify MYSELF to others in my company. I want professional sessions. It's why I like WritersUA so much. Very clearly, it's targeted to that which I do, daily. Plus, I like the locations! <BIG grin> ...sue BTW, welcome Elizabeth!!!
