NOTE TO READERS: I’m now going to be blogging on Tuesdays at Lady Smut.
Breathless note! Things have been super busy—but very exciting. I spent an exceptionally gorgeous day last Saturday teaching a writing workshop up in Louden County, and this week —
Alexa Day and I are at #Fred Fest this weekend, Saturday Sept. 23rd. I’ll be the one with 100 lavender votive candles to give away. Perfect for your local coven meeting.
(The lovely Elizabeth SaFleur gave them to me.)
I mean, really, it’s going to be an EXTRAVAGANZA! Lots ‘o romance writers and our very own 3 tents, Q1 – Q3 will have historical romances (by Sue London), BDSM romances, Y.A., Urban Fantasy, and Fantasy Romance. And that’s just us – Washington Romance Writers & Virginia Romance Writers will be there as well.
Now, what am I going to wear?
The time to register for Hearts to You – aka the Washington Romance Writers luncheon for readers and bloggers — is upon us. Kiersten Hallie Krum will be there with an awesome Lady Smut basket to give away. Alexa Day, who last year got to sit all lunch long with Sarah Wendell from Smart Bitches Trashy Books (ooh, I was so envious) will be back again this year. Elizabeth SaFleur enchanted readers last year at her table with some excellent girl talk about sex and BDSM will also be kickin’ around in her elegant high heels.
Me? I’m not a squeal-y type of person, but this event gets my voice pretty high pitched. It’s just mega-fun. I’m not sure why. Is it all the give away baskets, the excellent location, the chance to take home a ton of free books? Maybe. Ultimately, I put it down to the rockin’ energy of the WRW tribe. They just make me want to stand up and testify to the power of romance.
So register at the WRW blog. It’s pretty inexpensive. I love it. We love it. You’ll love it too! Come meet us in person, chat romance, enjoy the day. (There’s even a rumor that some folks are going out for drinks afterwards.)
Okay — I’m off running around again. See you next week.
