Why I'm going to AWP

An editor talked me into it. She said, "The first question to ask yourself isn't, can I survive on 4 hours' sleep, can I afford this, what about my real job, etc. It’s, do I like cocktails?"

I have my warm coat, my comfortable shoes, and a new journal. I have business cards and a pocket full of hard candy. I'm a midlife writer ready for adventure.
