I’ll also cover writing an app and e-books.

Congratulations on all of the great events Dianne! I will be attending BlogHer Food, and hope to catch your talk!
Look forward to meeting you at BlogHer, Alisa! That’s what I loved about the conference last year — connecting with people I only knew online.
Is the Chicago event on the 4th or the 2nd? Above, you say it’s the 4th (Monday), but in the information you linked to, the date is indicated as the 2nd (Saturday). Thank you for any clarification!
I screwed up. It’s on the 4th. Will change it above. Thanks for pointing it out, Beth.
Thanks! Looking forward to seeing you on the 2nd.
Too bad I can’t attend any of these ;-(, just a bit too far away… But congrats on all the action you’re getting from the book, yay!
Thanks Vivian. I’d love to come to Singapore. Have to work on that.
I wish I could! Meanwhile, I’m still waiting for your Paris booksigning event
Enjoy!
Uh, I don’t think that one is on the calendar. Wish it was, though.
Wow Dianne,
You are busy! Sure wish I lived out West so I could take your cookbook writing course…
Any chance you will be at Foodbuzz in November? It’s kind of a longshot but I am thinking about going,
I won’t be because I am not a Foodbuzz publisher and too cheap to pay for the conference. Will have to meet you some other way, Winnie!
