I get by with a little help from my friends...
RWA Conference - Dallas, TX

Here I am with dear friends Janice Lynn (who writes medical romance for Harlequin Mills & Boon), and 2X Golden Heart Finalist Anna Sugden (future Harlequin Special Edition author, mark my words!) No, Janice isn't really all that tall - Anna and I are just short. :)

Laughing over the good ole' (as in pre-published contest 'ho) days with RITA winner Caridad Ferrer, who took home the gold for Best Contemporary Single Title with her Latina chick-lit, Adios To My Old Life. When you can't beat 'em, prove 'em wrong! :)

Many of the fabulous women from The Writers Playground (l to r) Dorchester author Cheryl (C.L.) Wilson, Mills & Boon author Janice Lynn, Harlequin Blaze author Tawny Weber, Angi Platt, 2X Golden Heart Finalist Anna Sugden, me, Golden Heart Finalist Lindsay Brookes, Golden Heart Winner Beth Burgoon, Mona Risk.

It's all about the shoes, baby!.

With Golden Heart Winner for Best Long Contemporary Romance, Beth Burgoon. Four days of no sleep didn't keep Beth from enjoying a well-deserved win!

On the stairs with my Playground Pals. The gorgeous blonde in the black dress (dead center of the photo) is Carla Hughes, Golden Heart Winner for Best Inspirational Romance.

Enjoying the award ceremony with my fabulous agent, Christina Hogrebe.

Relaxing between workshops with (l to r) Stacey Kayne (who writes Westerns for Harlequin Mills & Boon), Golden Heart Finalist Anna Sugden, and Avon Historical author Anna Campbell.

Ready for the Avon Family Dinner! (and secretly hoping I don't spill something all over myself)

Chatting with Avon author Jacquie D'Alessandro on the way to the Avon Family Dinner. Seated in front of me are fellow Avon authors Elizabeth Boyle and Anna Campbell. (Wonder what they're talking about?) :)

At the Avon Family Dinner with Julie Ann Long and Kathy Caskie. (You guys are so lucky I didn't spill something on my dress. Julie Ann kept me laughing, and Kathy is so gorgeous I almost asked her to marry me. :)

At the Rotrosen Party with Avon Red author Toni Blake, Harlequin Blaze author Jamie Sobrato, and Harlequin Blaze/Avon Red author Cathy Yardley. We had a great time discussing tangerine popsicles and Toni's dietary requirements (which include large amounts of chocolate, KFC and Coke!) Funny how that works, hm? :) (Toni knows I'm kidding!)
