I won First Place for Menagerie in Wisconsin!

Two weekends ago I attended the Wisconsin Romance Writers of America's conference in Green Bay.
It was in a word...lovely.
The conference was wonderful and very well planned. The people were amazing, friendly and warm. They made me feel right at home. The hotel was exceptional and nestled in woods off the beaten path.
And best of all...I won first place in the Write Touch Readers Erotica/Romantic Category for my book Menagerie. Woo Hoo!

Check out my award picture HERE.

Would I ever attend this conference again? You bet I would! And not just because I won the contest. I'd recommend it for all the wonderful things it offered. The food was good, the people were awesome and I already can't wait until next year.
I'd like to offer a special thanks to Virginia, Stacey and Donna for making me feel especially welcome.
Wisconsin rocks!

WisRWA...here I come!

Today, I'm leaving for Wisconsin and the WisRWA Write Touch Conference. :)

I'm very excited because I'm not only a contest finalist (for Menagerie in the Erotica category), I get to hang out with writers at a conference.
Writers, in case you didn't know, are very cool! :)

Also, you may not know this about me, but I like cold weather. Call me crazy.
Yes, I know I live in Florida, and it's nice, but after spending ten years in Colorado a while back...I miss the cold weather occasionally.

Here are the specifics for the conference...I can't wait.
