KC here I am

[ellen_datlow]

Got in just in time yesterday to make the opening ceremonies and then attended the artist author reception. Nice to see old friends and meet new ones. Then on to the lobby to check email --everyone had trouble getting online with the Hyatt wireless but I was able to get on through linksys another connection, which I'm on now. The Hyatt wireless worked at first and now is not again.

Robin Bailey showed me hot to embed my photos--I've been doing it in whatever the default posting mode is and could never do it other than by using a url. Well, it turns that what I needed to do was change over to rtf and voila--it works. I thought it was because of my basic account that I couldn't do it.

Dinner at Arthur Bryant's tonight with a bunch of folk. And then some partying back at the hotel.

Are you at the Hyatt near Crown Centre?

Have some bbq for me!

Yup. That's it --very large and a little difficult to find one's way around but nice. And I'm on the 40th floor--got a great view.

Will do!

Did we ever have some BBQ!

Lovely to see you, as always, Ellen. Hope you had a great time in KC.

Yup. I'll share dry St Louis ribs with you again any time :-).
Just getting ready to crash. Had a fine time. Hope to see you again soon.

Glad to hear you're enjoying the con!

Yes, it was terrific to see you, Ellen. I hope you and Parris won a fortune at the casinos today.

I lost about $30 and she won $115--on penny slots!
Great seeing you!
