MY HAPPY PLACE

Standard

I’m putting down words at Boyds Mills (formerly Highlights) for my sixth time. I persuaded my critique partner to join me (we talked nonstop for the entire 5-hour ride, possibly giving our spouses a break in the process). In addition to lots of fascinating writers (all genres), a group representing organizations that fight book-banning is meeting here. What amazing people! I was speaking with a woman who successfully lobbied to get Night put back on school library shelves in Texas. The AG though it was pornographic (insert giant scream emoji).
