Holy Moses (not religious!)It's one o'clock in the afternoon and I've done nothing but email and fielding calls from relatives. Talk about the unproductive life of Ms. Carys Weldon.
In the best news I've heard all week:
The 2006 "Reveal Your Inner Vixen" Contest Finalists were announced last night. I actually received a phone call from the contest chair!
You can check it out for yourself at: http://www.marylandromancewriters.org/contest.html
But I'll save you the hassle--because this is the first Romance Writers of America contest I've ever entered and I'm totally jazzed at the results:
Congratulations to our finalists!The 2006 "Reveal Your Inner Vixen" Contest showcased the chemistry between the hero and heroine. The entered scene could be a flirtation, a kiss or a fully described love scene, just as long as the judges could feel that tension!
