I hope to see you there! And no, I won’t be at BEA. I have must-attend work meetings. Maybe next year!


If all goes as planned I will be there for the earlier parts of the day, so glad I will catch your panel; what a line up!
Carol, wonderful! I think it was the SLJ Day of Dialog 2 years ago when we met “in person” for the first time.
Have a great time! i wish I could come.
