Off to Los Angeles! Very exciting to go back! I went out in 1992 a week after college graduation. My time living there was nowhere near long enough BUT I look back at it fondly. I am nostalgic for the adventure of living by the seat of the pants- not knowing how to pay the rent or when the next earthquake would toss us out of our discount water bed.
I was the stupidest kid. Way too immature to grasp the enormous opportunities I had right there in front of me. I was shy, lacked some serious confidence in my abilities. I was afraid of my own shadow.
What a difference 16 years makes. GO WEST YOUNG- no- kinda young with some grey hairs..and a 9 yr old..... WOMAN!!!

It was a pleasure getting to meet you today at the SCBWI conference. I have been a HUGE fan of your work for some time and so has my wife. Hope to see you next year if not before.
