Debut Author at ThrillerFest
This was my first time attending ThrillerFest, the annual conference of thriller writers held in New York City, created by the International Thriller Writers organization, of which I’m a member. As my book was released in the year leading up to this conference, I was part of the Debut Authors panel, and was given the opportunity to briefly speak about my journey as a writer to the entire conference. It was a magnificent experience. Both being back in New York City, a place I love, after several years away, and meeting so many wonderful, interesting, and welcoming writers. The panel, the parties, the networking, the awards ceremony, it was, to put it simply, a great and valuable time for me. My fellow debut authors are people I hope to be friends with for a long time.
