A few weeks back, several of us got on the topic of a writer's image and how it might differ from our personal image, particularly if we write under a pseudonym. This turned into a conversation on separating the personal from the penname, professionalism and creativity, developing the writer persona, and inevitably, clothing! M&M will be the first time Heather McGovern and Elizabeth Michaels mix and mingle with those in the biz outside of our local RWA chapter. It's important to us to make a professional, fun, and lasting impression. Both of us know our writer image and how it relates to what we write, thus we went shopping with that in mind. We had a blast! It's still us, but we get to let the creative side loose. We get to be a little more eccentric than the usual mom, banker, dinner maker attire. We get to wear killer heels and bling!!!
So, while we're at M&M, we plan to post about all that happens AND post a picture journal of our outfits with a blurb about what went on that day. Some say it's shallow to enjoy clothes so much, I say it's fashion!

Count me in! =D
Oh there will be pictures! ...and I'm sure some blog-worthy stories to tell! I love that picture at the bottom of the post, Heather. I like to think that's us on our way to Moonlight and Magnolias! (If only my legs were that long.) ;)
We're going to have TOO much fun! I thought the same thing about E.Michaels and McGovgov in that image!(If only my waist was that tiny)
