last days for your chance to win





Hello all,

We are getting close to the final days to send in your "reason why I should win Acheron signed" answers. Please note that it does NOT have to be a long essay style answer. Just an answer.LOL


I'm posting pics from the Signing in DC on the 18th of August. It was great fun. I enjoyed meeting with other fans and getting to see Sherri again. (see pics above?).
hugs to all,
WendyK

Blog guest: Angela and her talk with Karen Rose

Today we have a blog Guest, fellow TRRC reviewer Angela. Below is her comments from her recent excitement. Please join me in welcoming Angela and for more information please check out our website at www.theromancereadersconnection.com


I was so excited to get a chance to speak with Karen Rose, who is one of my all-time favorite authors. I will admit it: my heart was pounding with excitement while I waited for everyone else to join in on the conference call, and I was feeling a lot of excitement and a lot of nerves. Karen Rose was so warm and personable. As silly as this sounds, I kind of idolize my favorite authors the way some people idolize movie stars, and there's always a risk that an idol won't be as wonderful as you imagine--but Ms. Rose was awesome. Talking to her was like talking to a long-time friend. She was open, friendly, and forthright; she made lots of jokes. Another fun part of phone conference was talking to other readers; the conversation was stimulating and the ladies asked a lot of smart questions. What a fast half hour it was! I would absolutely love the opportunity to chat with Karen Rose or another author sometime!

A list of current or upcoming releases?

Would you all like a post about the next month's releases? One post for Romance, one for Christian Fiction, one for mystery? Or do you get the information in other places and have no desire for it to be here?

What would you all most like to read about in a blog?

Book clubs?

Do any of you belong to book clubs? Not online ones mind you but local ones? What do you generally do at them? I will be attending my first in person local book club on Friday. I'm excited and nervous. I'm hoping it lasts and goes well, but nervous at the same time. I think I do better online often than in person. I get nervous sharing my thoughts sometimes. Plus I have issues with my teeth, I'll admit I need dental work done and I've put it off. So it adds to my issues. But still I want a chance to meet in person with others who love reading romance. I'll just have to see how things go.

So do you belong to a book club? Preferr the ones online?

Any hints or thoughts you could pass on to me?

hugs,
WendyK
