Waaaaaa

Can I whine a minute? Just a minute, then I'll be done. I hate editing my novel! Just when I think I'm almost done, I find a scene or two I need to add. Or dialog that needs work. Whine finished. Thanks!

Now about conferences. Just returned from one. What's up with people bringing their pets to a conference? I mean I love dogs, I really do. But I would never dream of taking a dog to a conference. It wasn't just at the hotel, but she brought it to the breakout sessions. I have to admit, the dog was very well-behaved. But I don't get it. Did the dog even learn anything? I would have been so worried that Rover would hike his leg or bite someone that I wouldn't have learned a thing.

Ever take your pet to a conference? Ever whined while editing?
