ACFW Dallas 2012

I went to Dallas, Texas in Sept and although I didn't see much of the city itself, I really enjoyed my trip to the American Christian Fiction Writers annual conference. I'm posting a day-by-day diary of my trip over on my writing blog and so far, have posted these days: - Going to Dallas : Travelling from Regina to Dallas and my first impressions - ACFW Dallas Wed : Meeting author friends and venturing away from the hotel The following photos are different from the ones over on my Woven Under Western Skies writing blog , but if you want to see pics of the conference itself and my author friends, you should check it out.

Railway Meals at the Inkwell

It's history day at the Inkwell and I'm blogging about dining cars and meals on the old Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) back in 1888.
