Important Kidlit Conference reminders
With the conference only (yikes!) three and a half weeks away, we have some deadlines looming.
First, if you haven’t already reserved your hotel room, the absolute drop-dead deadline is September 19 if you want any hope of getting the special rate. Be sure to tell them you’re with the Kidlit Conference.
Second, thanks to Herb, our resident graphic artist, we now have two t-shirt designs to choose from (here and here)! (And thank you, Maureen, for the suggestion about “I read whatever the bloggers tell me to read” for shirt #2–love it.) We also have a fancy commemorative coffee mug. If you want a shirt in time to wear for the conference, better get hoppin’.

i just ordered my very cool golf shirt cuz i want to be stylin’ at the conference. thanks herb. love the logo.
Omigod! There are like sixty people signed up for this thing! (And I totally bet we can peer pressure Patrick the Space Lord into it.)
Robin, I don’t know if I’ve said it lately, but I’m in awe of what you’ve done in putting this out there and making it happen. Un-freakin’-believable.
I’ll be there Friday evening through Sunday evening and ready to rock n’ roll, you know, kidslit-wise.
mr–start the rumble–”patrick, patrick, space lord, space lord…” until he bends to our will!
Annette, I ordered my shirt and mug today, too! Somehow doing that makes the conference seem real.
Mother Reader, thank you so much. I’m really looking forward to having everybody in the same room instead of at all of our computers all over the country. What a blast!
Good luck to you and anyone trying to persuade the Space Lord. He claims he’s “too busy” with work. I say no one is too busy to come spend one weekend on a play date with the rest of us, but if a man’s gotta work . . .
Did someone find a peer of mine to pressure me?
I’m bummed. I can’t come to the conference. My in-laws have planned their semi-annual party for that weekend…and since hubs and I missed the Spring shindig, I can’t miss this one.
Someone have a drink for me!
My belief in the Space Lord is shaken. I thought the Space Lord was omnipresent. Oh well another delusion not to worry about, reduce the meds.
Herb, I want you to consider that you are taking the word of Robin – who makes things up for a living.
It is possible that I am attending the conference right now and that I find the 58 women and 4 men absolutely delightful and they have made it on to my list of people not to obliterate in the event of an apocalypse.
I’m just saying that it is possible…
Here’s the thing about Chicago. It’s windy and very challenging to maintain perfect hair.
Oh peerless one there no challenge too great for the Space Lord. Show us your greatness.
Beth! Dude! Who are the in-laws compared to us?
I understand. But you owe us all an appearance at the next one, deal?
