2008 RT Convention

Well, I survived the 2008 RT (Romantic Times) Convention. I had a blast! I met wonderful authors and readers, as well as publishers, book sellers and reviewers...and made some new friends. It was great hanging out with Melissa Mayhue and Rena Marks.... and my roomates Ericka, Debbie, and Lea. We had quite a few laughs, especially when Lea mistook Barry Eisler for one of the Cover Models. (Maybe you should look into that, Barry.) Also I won a wonderful pearl and cameo necklace. Okay...it wasn't my ticket that won. Everyone at my table got tired of waiting for the drawing and gave me all the tickets and left. I stuck it out and one of them hit! Now I need somewhere really fantastic to wear the necklace. I absolutely was inspired to write...but when I got home, I got sick and am still fighting it off. I guess you can't go into a small enclosed space with hundreds of people and not come into contact with some kind of cold germ. Lucky me! But I'm feeling better and hope to be writing soon. LIKE TONIGHT!!!! :) As I said...I had a blast at RT. It was fun to dress up as a dark fairy, a vampire, and a hollywood starlet. And I garnered enough free books to last me until the next RT. Here's crossing my fingers I can go again.
