As promised, here’s a consolation prize for all of us who couldn’t make it to the Romantic Times Magazine Convention in Dallas. It’s going on right now and although I’m enjoying everyone’s pictures on social media, I’m also very jealous that I’m not enjoying all the fun stuff. If you too couldn’t make it to the convention, head on over to my Facebook page for a chance to win the amazing prize package in this picture.

I had a great time with the Florida Romance Writers, even if the trip started a little tense because my suitcase didn’t make it until right before the cruise ship was about to leave. It was hard to return to the Pacific Northwest winter after some glorious days in the sun of the Caribbean. How how we writers suffer. 🙂 When I got back, revision comments from my editor were waiting in my inbox. So, it will be a while before I can give you more details about the conference. Until then, I leave you with my Rub-a-Dub Viking Ducks who …

My conference schedule for 2015 is almost full already! As much as I love hiding out in my office with only my characters and story plot for company, I also need to get with my peeps a few times a year for conferences and other literary events.

This year was my third time to attend the Romance Writers of America National Conference. I knew there’d be great workshops, fun times at the special interest chapters’ evening parties, interesting conversations in the bar, and amazing moments of meeting favorite big-name authors.

April is my favorite time of year in Spokane. Not just because spring arrives, but because it’s time for Get Lit! During this amazing literary festival, authors and readers worship the written word. The festival began in 1998 as one full day of readings and was sponsored by Eastern Washington University. Now, more than ten thousand people come to the yearly event to enjoy a week of poetry, fiction, and non-fiction literary events. I’ve been a festival volunteer every year, since I moved to Spokane. This year, I’m moderating a panel featuring three amazing authors: Rebecca Zanetti, Danica Winters, and …
