Oh my. What a soulful summary of an event so darned hard to explain. Thank you, Ty. You will be deeply missed.

I'm sorry you won't be there, and I will miss having the chance to meet you. Besides talking about word nerd-ness, we could have had a fascinating conversation about shoes! Enjoy your event with your people!

I’m so sorry you won’t be there,

Ty. I was hoping to meet you. I am enjoying getting to know you as I read your work on Substack. Of course, everlasting love” must take precedence! Here’s to next year.

You nailed it, Ty. And this is why I'm boarding Delta on Sunday morning. The experience nourishes the soul. I re-arrange my life to get to Iowa for Okoboij.
