Writers, please note if you are attending this panel, you should chant “Formichelli – Number One!” before and after Linda’s presentation. This will not only boost your productivity, but also will keep you from looking like a static member of the audience.
Daisha, thank you for that valuable tip!
I am planning to attend the my first ASJA conference! There are so many great panels this year, it’ll be tough to choose.
Hey, Susan, whaddaya mean tough? I mean, clearly the panel I’m on will be first choice, no? ;-> I hope you enjoy the conference!
Linda, thanks for letting us know about this conference. I was looking for a replacement conference for the BEA writer’s conference, and this one seems to have a lot of great sessions!
