Friends

by C. LaRene Hall

This week I have a dear friend from my long ago past staying with me. We graduated from high school together many, many years ago. It’s great fun reminiscing about those years gone by. When I told her I needed to write a blog, and had no idea what to write about, she suggested friends.

Immediately, I agreed. Last month I attended the LDStorymakers Conference, and I have to say although the classes were all great, the best part of it was meeting new people and especially seeing fellow writers from past conferences. Never had I been in a room with so many people with whom I had common interests. That could be because this was the largest conference they have ever held. It didn’t matter who I sat next to, I always had something to talk about because we both had the same passion. We both like to write.

I know that next year as the time approaches for this writing conference I’ll be excited to attend because I know that I’ll get to see all my writing friends again. There’s nothing like a good friend.

You're very fortunate to have that. There aren't conferences near me and the ones in Utah don't run at a time when I can go.
