Comments on: Mega-glad to be here http://chrisbarton.info/blog/2009/02/mega-glad-to-be-here.html I'm having the time of my life writing for children and teenagers, from goofy picture books to painstakingly researched nonfiction. Here, you can read more about me, my books, and my in-person visits with young readers.

I started blog dedicated to mega regions and specifically to Texas. Interestingly, Southwest Airlines got its start serving the "Golden Triangle." The apocryphal story is that the two co-founders sketched out a triangle connecting Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin and San Anton on the back of napkin before starting their airline. Cheers!

I have felt so incredibly blessed to live here and be part of our awesome Austin writing community. I've just learned that I am (sob) moving away in a few months, to Dallas/Fort Worth, so I'm glad it was listed as part of that Texas Triangle! I'll also be angling to get Austin authors to come visit there. ;-) You are sure right about Austin.
