RWA National Conference!

As you read this I'm probably on a plane about 30000ft above the earth making my way across the Pacific Ocean and the International Dateline.

Why?

It's conference season!!!

And I'm attending the Romance Writers of America® national conference in Atlanta, Georgia.

Thankfully, I'm travelling with a friend, Christine Taylor (one of the 2013 RWA Golden Heart® finalists in the Romantic Suspense section) so it should make the time spent travelling go faster...maybe.

We'll no doubt chat up a storm for some of the 28 hours it takes to get there. We'll certainly be psyching ourselves up for the amazing experience I know RWA is going to be.

This is Chris's first time to RWA, and with all the fun surrounding her with being a GH finalist,  I know she's going to have a ball!

Some of my much anticipated events attending RWA will be:
  • meeting my agent & editor face-to-face for the first time
  • meeting & talking to readers at the Literacy Autographing & Berkley Book-Signing
  • catching up with friends I made when I first came over in 2010 (when I won a Golden Heart® for VENGEANCE BORN)
  • attending the GDRWA® Book Sellers Best awards night (where VENGEANCE BORN is a finalist in the Paranorma/Time Travel/Futuristic & Best First Book sections)
  • attending Margie Lawson's workshop (I had such an a-ha moment when she visited RWAustralia® & RWNew Zealand® a few years ago)
  • sitting beside Chris at the RWA® Awards dinner and cheering her on
Are you going to RWA? If so, then I'll see you there!

There's no doubt I'll come back exhausted...but it will be so worth it!
