For the Sake of Clarity

The below post is making fun of my recurring situation of being the "weird lady with goofy ideas regarding the interwebs and self-publishing" at these types of conferences.

While she might be annoying, it's important to once in a while invite your Jell-O obsessed aunt to dinner and endure her pointing out how you're doing everything wrong. Yes, the whole time you're counting the minutes until you can stick her back on a bus for home. But your other choice is going to hell for being neglectful to the old crone, cause no matter what, she's still family.

I am always grateful when these conferences invite me to participate even though they don't really like my Jell-O salad and secretly wish I'd be civilized and instead bake some God damn chocolate chip cookies.

I'm not in any way dissing the conference or anyone involved. I would not participate or promote anything I thought was a waste of time or not valuable. Just because I disagree with someone, driving them into a pooh-flinging rage, does not mean I'm dissing them. I merely disagree. When I'm referred to as the No Tell Ho-tail -- now that's a diss! But nobody has ever called me that. I just made it up to get attention. I'm trying to get your attention. Do I have your attention?

Good, register for the conference.
