In case you didn’t know, RWA stands for Romance Writers of America.
I’m a member and right now (July 19, 2018), we’re halfway through our annual
conference. This year it’s being held in Denver, Colorado. Talk about a tremendous
number of folks gathered with the same goal in mind!
Nearly two thousand women
and a few men are here to find out how (or to share how) to make a writer’s HEA (happy
ever after) story become a hit with readers, whether through fine-tuning the
craft of writing or exploring the best ways to promote the works.
One of the nice things about this group is that there isn’t a
lot of ego-fueled competition. Even at the Golden Hearts Award ceremony today,
the women (all were women this year) were saying how they felt like sisters and
honored to be nominated. It sure looked like they were truth-telling, too.
What’s your favorite flavor of romance? Are you into
romantic suspense, sweet and/or sassy, how about a little rom com (romantic
comedy)? Would you like to know what it feels like to fall in love with a prince or
duke, either now or in the past? How about lovin’ on a vampire or a werewolf in
a paranormal adventure?
They may all be considered ‘romance,’ but there are so many
sub-categories, there’s never a reason to be bored. Loads of diversity here!
My author friends and I have put together a huge variety of box sets
for you to enjoy, all available for only 99 cents each or free to read if you
have a Kindle Unlimited account. (Search my name or some of the other authors to find more of these sets)

finally gave in and admitted that I am a romance writer — and proud of it.
