Shmooze-o-rama

Attended a meet-and-greet with some random publicists and PR types last night, courtesy this organization.

Haven't done something like that in a long time, it was reassuring and motivating to talk about the occasional triumphs and frequent woes of freelancing with other writers. Collected a handful of business cards and free booze from several flacks, and one especially weird one followed me around, talking about his Craftmatic bed.

Guess I expected more pushy, cut-throat action from other writers, and less accessibility to the PR/Publicists--seems I have the potential to be wrong, after all.

Here's to professional shmoozing and to certain people geting crackin' on writing!
