And more on the Rally...
The rally consists of four sessions with a half hour break between the first and second and third and fourth, and an hour and a half between the second and third. Each session offers four different subjects and with no repeats it can be very hard to choose.

The second session that I chose was Nuts-n-Bolts. It was presented by Steven Harper Piziks. He does a lot of sci-fi original writing and his latest project is a Star-Trek book. He had a lot of pertinent, usable information on how to format submissions and query letters.
