BBC, RNA Conference and packing

July 9, 2009

BBC Staffordshire have done a piece about Decent Exposure and 12 Men of Christmas on their site. 🙂

The awesome new RNA Blog will be posting updates, news and Tweets from the Romantic Novelists Association Conference.

Penrith won’t know what’s hit it! I keep picturing scenes line those from Withnail & I,

“We want the finest wines available to humanity and we want them now!”

Now, I must do some packing…

UPDATE: Very sorry – I have given the wrong impression with my hastily scrwaled post – I’m not going to penrith – sadly, as I’m dying to meet up with everyone – but I’m going to Canada to visit the set of 12 Men. 🙂

   I’m supposed to be speaking between 2 and 3 on Saturday. I’ve currently written 1,700 words of the necessary 8,000 needed to fill 40 minutes (if I speak v-e-r-y—s-l-o-w-l-y …). You might like to bring a good book with you, or your knitting, or something …

   I hope you have great fun at the conference. I’ll be picturing you all, chatting, reading, maybe a little civilised drinking! I’ll be checking for updates so I don’t feel like I’m missing out!

   I am so sorry to miss you all – things have been REELY weird this year – and they still are. The film has been the mkost unexpected light among the gloom – and what a light so I’m going to wring every last drop of enjoyment out of it.

   Moira – we will meet very soon. Hope to come up to Lakes in october for a week.

   Nell – August cakes and coffee. Oh yes.

   To everyone posting and visiting and following the journey. Forgive me for the indulgence. This is the most exciting thing, career wise, ever to happen to me!

   Lori and Debs: I will post pics if I can. I do wish they’d announce ‘Will’ – probably will happen while I;m away. i ams just waiting to see if, when a romance writer comes face to face with her hero, she goes into some kind of anti-matter vaporisation alternate reality and is never heard of again…
