RWA

They believe in me!!!

We interrupt our regularly scheduled blog bash for an important announcement and a rousing SQUEEEEEEEEE!!!

Several of our authors made the list of this year's finalists for the 2008 RITA Awards®. The 2008 RITA honors romance fiction published in 2007, and over 1,000 novels and novellas were judged in 12 categories. Winners of the awards will be announced August 2nd at the RITA and Golden Heart Awards Ceremony to be held at RWA's Annual Conference in San Francisco, California.

Just wanted to post the following from the RWA® for general interest:

The 2008 NOLA Written in the Stars conference in Shreveport, LA was a blast! I got home yesterday evening, and I am happy to say I took a TON of pictures, including those of the editors and agents that attended. I have a few pictures up on my blogspot blog: http://corazane.blogspot.com for anyone interested in taking a peek.

I'm tweaking the first few chapters of my wip in preparation of the Written in the Stars conference in Shreveport this coming Friday and Saturday. I have everything I need, and it's all ready to go: everything from clothes to appointments to the hotel room.

Can I admit I'm a bit nervous about going?  Is there such a thing as pre-conference jitters?
