While no one who knows me would call me shy, I'm a true introvert who finds socializing exhausting (ditto for travel). It's good to hear the pay off is worth it!

I don't do well in crowds,either, but as I go to more cons the percentage of people I know grows and I get better.I'm glad you're gettng out there and especially glad you went to San Antonio so I could meet you in person. I'm sure you'll be a wonderful at RT. As Cassandra said...most of us are like that. You're in good company. :)Kate Richardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11266895320753860578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3986523092898008409.post-69507589350920961882013-04-22T18:58:20.930-07:002013-04-22T18:58:20.930-07:00You know you can always call me.

Feel free to glom on at any time.<br /><br />Most writers are introverts. As you said, there's a reason we sit behind computers and tell stories.Cassandra Carrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11261191490396335404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3986523092898008409.post-69380368459063539152013-04-22T18:21:47.990-07:002013-04-22T18:21:47.990-07:00Actually, I'm shy....I confess it I'm shy....Actually, I'm shy....I confess it I'm shy..<br /><br />I'll stop singing now.<br /><br />Can't you guess neath this confident air is a mask that I wear cause I'm shy.<br /><br />I had to finish it. Now I'll stop singing. But it seemed pertinent. <br /><br />Oddly I'm very shy with people I don't know, or very outgoing. Never now which me will show up. I would be shy at a convention unless someone gets me drunk, then I'll be silly as can be and will probably sing.<br /><br />A lot.<br />Liza O'Connorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11206604386433215482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3986523092898008409.post-14349551893066771622013-04-22T18:20:53.820-07:002013-04-22T18:20:53.820-07:00PS: At NJ RWA, I left what turned out to be a grea...PS: At NJ RWA, I left what turned out to be a great party (or so I was told) to go back to the room and watch the Yanks get slaughtered in a play-off game.

I always feel like I'm latching on to people. I seem like I'm outgoing usually. But it's a cover up. I'm totally not.Taryn Kincaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11130206764352777367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3986523092898008409.post-9819814867355936052013-04-22T18:18:39.751-07:002013-04-22T18:18:39.751-07:00I can totally relate.
