Romance Writers of the World Unite
by Susan W on August 7th, 2009, 12:04am
Our UK Editors recently attemded the prestigious Romance Writers of America conference in Washington including our very own Joanne Grant:
All of the UK editors who attended this year’s RWA conference in Washington D.C. are now back in the office, and wow, what a conference!
It is always great for editors to get a chance to meet with authors face-to-face, to chat about work, but also to have some light-hearted banter. And we did just that when Tessa and I met up with the Presents authors for a delicious lunch on the Thursday. We’d chosen a Lebanese restaurant to add a flavour of the exotic East to our gathering, and after a toast to Presents and all of our authors, we tucked into delicious dishes of spiced meat, vine leaves and fragrant rice.
We were joined by (seated from right to left around the table) Kate Hewitt, Lynn Raye Harris, Kate Walker, Sandra Marton, Sharon Kendrick, Jennie Lucas and, flying the flag for Modern Heat, Kimberley Lang. Tessa and I were seated at opposite ends of the table.
We did chat, we did laugh, and I think it fair to say, we all had a wonderful time!
The conference is also a great opportunity to meet with potential new authors, for all of our series, and we were busy spreading the word about our new writing competition. I was heartened to discover on my return, that we have already had some entries and we will be sharing some writing tips soon to help you aspiring authors on your way!
This is my first opportunity to visit this website.

RWA 2011
I'm following a few of the Harlequin authors on twitter and reading their tweets about the upcoming #RWA this year. Romance trading cards seem to be the big thing this year, plus discussion of how high the heels on their footwear should/could be! Here's hoping we get pictures!

There are a lot of great points here, but I'm not sure I agree with real-time search being discarded. I agree that it's not very relevant,but isn't the point of it to show what people are currently saying about a topic.
