More Fun Contest NewsThe year I gave myself to enter contests (beyond the Golden Heart) has come to
a close, and I've had some nice news to cap the anniversary: A Most Improper Gentleman has finaled in the Historical
categories of both Heart of the Rockies and the Molly Contest.
In the Molly, Octavia has also
finaled in the Unsinkable Heroine category. I'm sure she's doing fist pumps in whatever alternate universe she inhabits.
You can meet her by following the excerpt link over on the left.

I Found My Agent!!Wonderful news: I now have an agent, the fabulous Susanna Einstein of LJK Literary Management. I met her at the RWA
Nationals Award Ceremony, thanks to my ever-lovely chaptermate Rachael Herron (whose very charming first book, How to Knit a Love Song, debuted with Avon A this past spring). I'm thrilled
to be working with Susanna, and am very excited about taking the next steps toward getting my books out to the world!

Sludge Brain / Good NewsNo, those two things aren't related, except by coincidence.
My brain is fried from processing entries
for the Golden Pen Contest Single Title category, for which I'm coordinator. Ai ai ai--I have a WHOLE new appreciation
for all the volunteer work that goes into Romancelandia's vast webs of mentorship and mutual support. (The Golden
Pen got a record number of entries this year--up 50% over last year.)
It's taken me days to sort out and
copy entries and get them properly assigned to judges, and I've spent the entire afternoon just getting entries attached
to emails for the individual judges. And I'm not done yet.
HOWEVAH....in the middle of all this I learned that
A MOST IMPROPER GENTLEMAN has finaled in Heart of the Rockies. (Woot!) Contest karma, I guess.
Check out the excerpt from GENTLEMAN...the link's over to the left!
