Thank you so much for putting this all on, Brenda!! And thanks so much to all the mentors, especially my own super amazing mentor Heidi. I didn’t even realize we got gift cards. It seems too much on top of getting my manuscript critiqued and getting in front of so many agents. Anyone that has the guts to put themselves out there is a winner!! I’m full of writerly love tonight… what an awesome community.
