GSHW meetings
Last September, I joined the Garden State Horror Writers, a multi-genre writing group. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
temporus had been encouraging me to go to the meetings for ages, and I finally made it to one where Ellen Datlow was talking about the current state of horror. I haven't made it to a meeting since.
Best of intentions. I was planning to go this Saturday -- Dina Leacock is talking about short story writing. Terrific!
Except I forgot my mother-in-law is visiting the state this weekend, and Saturday's the best day for us to drive over to Valley Forge to see her. I *could* go to the meeting myself and let the rest of the family go, but my husband's car really needs to go into the shop, so mine's needed for the drive.
All right, then. Next month for sure. John Joseph Adams -- how could I miss the chance to meet the man who has rejected so many of my stories so quickly? (One rejected in 7-1/2 hours this week!)
However, there's a bit of a scheduling conflict: Boskone runs February 12-14 this year. Yes, I already paid my registration fee.
Here's hoping March works out. . . .

You know you might want to see if you can carpool with one of the other members. I think Brian, the past GSHW president, lives over in your neck of the woods.

Hope to see you at the meeting in March :)
