Did you miss me over the weekend? Probably not, unless I work with you (I missed part of Thursday and Friday) or you’re one of my pets. 🙂
I was in OKC at Oklahoma Writers Federation Inc’s annual conference. And I have to tell you, I had a ball!
This was the best conference ever!
Why? Well, to start with, the keynote speaker was Eloisa James.
Professor McGonagall aka Eloisa James
She spoke about writing and success and just how to do it. I wish someone had recorded everything she had to say, because it was good!
This is The Wild Rose Press publisher and my first editor, Rhonda Penders. We celebrated her birthday at the Buzz Session Friday night after the costume contest (I didn’t enter) and Famous Authors’ Dinner.
She’s wearing the book cover necklace I made for her. 🙂
Standing in the door is Rhonda’s husband checking out the session/bd party. Nice guy!
Another buzz session pic.
They showed a slide of all the attendees’ books published in 2013, whether purchased by a publisher or self-pubbed. I loved seeing my name up there! 🙂
Smart Women Crew with Gloria Teague from The Ford.
Marion, Linda, Gloria, Rhenna, Kathlyn and T. D. Hart.
TD Hart took 1st Place in two categories!
First Place Winner, Rhenna Morgan!
And they gave me 1st Place in Romance. (Is that cool or what?)
And they gave me a $50 check! Believe it or not! 🙂
