So it's tomorrow and I'm trying to gather my thoughts about what I want from it. I've been to a couple of these and both times I've said next time I'll get more out of it and I'm worried that I won't again so I guess it helps to state what I'm interested in doing. So this is what I'm interested in:
1) Pitching. Not because I need people to say 'that sounds fantastic, let's do it'. But because the more times you tell a story the clearer it becomes to you. And so I'm not going to just pitch Advanced Fun. I'm going to pitch a bunch of projects so that I can hear what people say. And any one pitch doesn't really matter because I'm not looking for people to pick it up. They're all just practice.
2) Be pitched to. I just want to hear as many as possible. Hear how people define their stories. How they make people interested. How they turn them off. I want to always ask people what they're working on and even other projects they know about.
3) Tips and experience of writing as something you do in the evening when you're tired. Those little tips and routines that people like
4) Just to enjoy talking about writing for 3 days and soak it up. The talks are interesting. Enjoying them is a decent thing to do and way to spend your money.
