Yea I just booked my flight! I hope to register in a few days. Need to get a few more financial ducks in a row first and do our taxes!

I'm looking at coming, but is there transportation from/to airports or is that arranged by us?

Members make their own arrangements. There is a thread where people interested in sharing rides are finding each other.... But I'm on my phone and incompetent....

Just registered and made travel arrangements. Will be driving with a kindred spirit from here (Chattanooga) and will overnight with a good friend in Monroe, LA. This is really working out better than I thought it would! Alright, I admit it, I knew I could not miss this one.

Jeannette! You have a good friend in Monroe?! We live in West Monroe. :-D Three of us from this region are driving together to the conference. :
I am just too curious now about who your friend is because it is likely I know him/her. I am sending you a PM now.

I know I read somewhere that some AA authors might be selling their books. Would we need cash on hand for this or would personal checks be okay? Anyone know? I assume cash would be best.
Thanks.

I would love to know what will be for sale at the conference too. Especially any language learning materials. Is there a list of what people will be selling there?

Reply from the Advisory:
AO is not officially selling books, although individual authors will have their books available. The checks would need to be made to each of them, and if they did accept checks, you would need to write a check to each individual separately.
