The second part of the Reader Roundtables was content. (I really could talk about covers forever but we had to move on). Readers said that they were tired of paranormals and to expand on that, they may not be so much tired of paranormals but rather they want something fresh. One reader commented she wanted(…)

It’s hard to say whether this year’s RomCon reflects what next year’s RomCon will be like because this year was a first. If next year’s RomCon was like this one, I would recommend the conference to readers who want to mingle with a group of A list authors in an informal and fun environment. The(…)

When I first heard about a conference devoted to romance readers, I was really excited. RWA, obviously, is not a reader conference; and RT has grown to be more of an author focused conference. I think that the intentions of RomCon are excellent and that this has the potential to grow to be an awesome(…)

I had written an entire blog post about RT 2010 and lost 10 paragraphs because of the [insert your own profanity] WordPress blogging app on the iPad. I think my tongue is bloody from biting it to prevent the rage from spilling forth. Probably, though, it was for the best. I will now be ultra(…)

Sony funded a sexy red Sony Reader as a door prize. Red Sage Publishing, Quartet Press, Samhain and Smart Bitches LLC all contributed to help fund the room(…)

Thursday the conference meetings will start including our Rogue Digital Conference. RWA coverage will be sporadic, sometimes fast and furious and sometimes slow. We place the(…)

I heard that the segment was brief with Nora Roberts, Sherrilyn Kenyon, and Beverly Jenkins. Sarah was used in a short segment. I am sort of disappointed but I loved the experience. Send to Kindle

I’ve been a crappy blogger. I blame it on the hectic schedule yesterday. I volunteered at both the am and pm sessions of the literacy signing. In the pm, I served as a low tech Vanna White without the sequins as I recorded the winning raffle numbers on a white board. There were thirty eight(…)

Got up early this am for real work stuff and then left to have some breakfast. Saw early birds Alyssa Day and Caridad Ferret who graciously invited me to joins them. We had buffet if you wanted to know. I had fruit and three pieces of bacon. I figure it all balances out. Day and(…)

The bathrooms at the DFW are disgusting. I felt like needed to shower after exiting. And of course my flight is delayed for no apparent reason other than the mechanic ran off with the log book. So I am running an hour late. At least. I wouldn’t really mind but that I am rooming with(…)
