User group meeting

The Twin Cities Drupal April meetup is this Wednesday, April 24th from 7-9PM at Intermedia Arts. With more snow on the way, sunny July seems impossibly far away. But it's not too early to be thinking about DrupalCamp Twin Cities. The camp website will be launched soon and with it session submissions will be opened. Our mission this year is to encourage a wide variety of sessions from an even wider variety of presenters. This means you! For this first 30 minutes or so of this month's meetup, veteran camp and DrupalCon presenter Joe Shindelar will be sharing some myth and anxiety-busting info about presenting. Join us for Joe's tips and inspiration.

And that's not all -- after Joe we'll be opening the meeting for our new frighteningly popular regular feature: lightning talks. This month, there'll be a twist. You'll have to join us to find out what that's all about. Just show up with a burning question, a problem you've solved (or needs solving), a site or module you love (or hate), an issue you'd like to hear others weigh in on -- whatever. We'll give you a brief platform to share and receive feedback. The more sharing, the more learning and inspiration.

Oh, and don't forget there will be pizza. Bring a beverage to share and the socialization will be that much better.

Megathanks again to Joe (eojthebrave) for a great presentation on, well, presentations! We had a lively discussion and I'm guessing many are inspired to put together sessions for the upcoming camp (and/or upcoming meetups).

I noticed that Joe tweeted a link to his slidedeck for last night's talk, so I'm taking the liberty to posting that link here for anyone who may be interested -- https://speakerdeck.com/eojthebrave/thoughts-about-presenting.

Thanks to everyone for a great meetup. See you next month after DrupalCon Portland.
