Yesterday evening, I went with my middle child to the compulsory stallholder's meeting in readiness for the WIPCE conference called "Te Ao Pūtahi" Festival.
At the meeting, we were told that with the 3,000+ delegates arriving in the next 2 weeks in readiness for the conference that already it boasts being the largest conference that New Zealand has ever hosted.
In looking at the conference programme, it is jam packed with so many events and offerings to attend. I've already decided on some of the events that I'll be attending but I'm also attending to our stall of selling books and answering any questions that readers have.
We're starting to consider what we'll be packing in for our stall and the different products that we'll be offering as well as checking out what other stalls are offering too.
This is getting really exciting as it's the first international conference type setting that I'll be selling my books at and I'm very grateful to the conference organisers for accepting our application to be present at this auspicious occasion.
I'm also grateful that I have my family there with me as it's a family business. In fact, on the last day of the conference where I'll be presenting, the next day we fly out to Fiji for a bit of R&R after a crazy year and especially with my birthday on the horizon...
