So, there's this spec fic writer I met through the Outer Alliance (who, as it turns out, lived up the road from me but just had to move to Raleigh.) She had a reading at Chapel Hill Comics, and another gal from the OA came up from Charlotte. We chatted some, I thought she was cool, and we're twitter buddies now. She's the gal I'm going to ReaderCon with.
So Jaym wanted to organize an NC writer's meetup, because there are, like, a million of us here, and she made a blog post about it. I left a comment with my preferred day.
Then in my facebook this morning, there's a friend request from the other person who commented. I was like, wait, is that ... holy crap, it is.
A girl I was BFFs with in middle school, who moved away suddenly in 7th or 8th grade, and I heard from once or twice afterward, found me through a comment on a blog post. After 20+ years. Man. The internet, it is mighty.
I'm growing slowly convinced that at some point, all geek(ish) circles overlap. Or writerly.
