I'm attending a writers' conference in about three and a half weeks. It is the first writers' conference I've attended since 1991! Mainly this has been because of a lack of money, time, or both.
So in any case, I went online and looked at writers' conference etiquette, and a lot of sites tell me I should bring business cards, which I think is a fabulous idea. But what the heck do I put on it?? It's not like I'm an official business. I don't have a title. I only have a few publishing credits as well, and they are nonfiction (not fiction like I someday hope), and they are already linked on my website.
So, what, I just put my name, phone number, website??? ....that seems, well, that seems the epitome of hubris.
