I’m famous?
Okay, not really famous … but my name is listed in the latest issue of RWA’s Romance Writers Report.
That’s right. I got the issue that lists all the Golden Heart® and Rita® finalists.
There I am, right at the top of the Contemporary Series list. (Note to self: Continue entering MSs with titles at the beginning of the alphabet.)
Seriously, it’s a thrill to see my name printed alongside of all the other finalists’. Even though, as a reporter, I see my byline in print often (no longer every day, because I do more page design than writing), it’s different when my name is attached to my fiction. Don’t ask me why — I just know it is.
The countdown is on: In less than 20 days, I’ll be on a plane on my way to NYC. I can’t wait to get there and meet everyone! Win or lose, we’re all going to have a great time in the Big Apple.

I seem to recall the finalists pictures appearing in previous years, but maybe I’m misremembering. Anyway, I haven’t gotten my copy yet, and with Canada Post on strike, I wonder if I will get to see my name in print before I leave for Nationals. OMG it’s coming. Can’t wait (partly because it’s also my vacation from the day job).

That is so exciting! I completely understand why it means more with your fiction. I feel the same way.
Congratulations!
