Onward to Los Angeles!

So I’m sitting in the airport right now, waiting to board my flight to Los Angeles for the Lambda Literary Foundation retreat. This past week I’ve been on vacation in Portland, Oregon. It was an extremely busy trip, and I still didn’t manage to see everyone I hoped to. It also means that I haven’t done as much pre-work as I’d hoped…but hey, there’s still time on the plane, right?

Our pre-work consisted of reading everyone else’s submissions and writing critiques. That’s eleven 40-page submissions and a one page critique for each. We’ll be discussing each person’s work during one-hour sessions, three per day. It’s going to be intense. I’m very impressed by everything I’ve read, and I can’t wait to meet the other Fellows.

Throughout the week I’ll be doing my best to blog about what we do and how it goes. I know I got a lot out of reading the blogs of past Fellows, and hope that whatever I write here will let the next generation of Fellows find out what they’re getting into.

You can also follow our adventures on Twitter using the hashtag #LLFellows2013. Onward to LA!
