Damn you, now I DO want to be there. Hmph. My kids start school that week, a traditionally broke time for me. I'll have to see if it can be managed. That schedule is excellent.

I don't even write that kind of stuff and I wanna be there!

Check with Alleycat, too. If memory serves, he was looking to go last year....

This would be sweet! I wish I could go but I'm busy that weekend! But I've bookmarked the site so I can plan on next year. Thanks Perks! Hope you have fun.

I wish I could, girl! Think of the terror the two of us-- uh-- think of the fun we'd have!

Sorry, Perks, I didn't know you had posted this until today. A couple of weeks ago I'm posted a similar thread in the Announcements forum.

I went last year, and am going to try to go this year.

Michael Connelly was the Guest of Honor last year.

Have you been to Nashville before?

Perks said:

Nope. Is it cool? Will you show me the town?

The event itself is held in the Cool Springs area, which is between the towns of Brentwood and Franklin. Franklin is a charming, small southern town. Brentwood is a very upscale area (several stars live there, including Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman).

Nearby is shopping, several good restaurants, churches the size of some states, a classic downtown in Franklin, golf courses, and some very large houses.

I wanna go, but I --wait maybe I could write crime, yes, this might be good--where you coming from Perks?
