I’ll be there and would love to meet up with Written Roadies who attend, so shoot me an email at writtenroadkel@gmail.com if you plan on going. (I knew there was a reason I moved back to NYC 🙂
Thanks for this post. I just finished reading Conundrum – loved every bit of it and will now read her others.
Hope to get tickets and to see you and fabulous New York! Whoa!
Jan Morris is the greatest travel writer ever! Her books about Venice and Hong Kong are the definitive captured essence of both those places. I’ll definitely be there with bells on.
I’m a New Yorker who works on Wall Street, so I’ll be picking up my ticket on the way home from work today.
Thanks for the heads up.
