One of the best parts about LauraPalooza was the emphasis on writing. As in words, beautiful words and the people who create them. Two such writers, both of whom have Laura-related books coming out in the next few months, attended and have written wonderful posts about being among the Laurarati (a term I’m co-opting from one of the writers for her replacement of “bonnet head” — you’ll see in the link below).
Wendy McClure, author of the upcoming The Wilder Life and frequent guest poster on Beyond Little House, posted about the conference on her own blog. Erin Blakemore, whose The Heroine’s Bookshelf (pre-ordering available!) will be out this October, wrote a guest post, Five Things I Learned at LauraPalooza over at Book Club Girl.
I agree. I like Laurarati a lot better than bonnet head. I’ll have to order both books.
