[My Leap Year is a 12-month life project (begun 11/01/07) at the end of which I intend to be writing full-time. 365 small steps = 1 giant leap.]

Well, it was a little over a week ago, but NYCC was fun. Friend Mark Sable’s own con report has put my lack of posting to shame with its thoroughness. It might have been my favorite con I’ve attended to date. The combination of all the publishers, almost none of the Hollywood, the still-manageable size, catching up with old friends, meeting new friends, planting seeds, perhaps seeing a few seeds sprout and being back in NY for a little while was a good one.

Conventions are a lot of walking. I always know this in my head, but my body seems to forget the actuality of it until I’m there. I’ve decided that this summer at SDCC I’m going to do a pedometer experiment. I’m going to wear a pedometer the entire weekend and see just how much walking I do. From stepping off the train and walking to the hotel to getting back on the train again. I think the numbers will be surprising.

But like I said, a good convention. After a bit of a lull, I’m starting to feel like this whole Leap Year project is truly going to pay off.

Oh yes, and I’m now on Twitter.
