I'm still locked down trying to finish my revisions for The Hunter, so I haven't had time to upload photos from the 2005 Romantic Times Convention yet. Lots of great pictures of authors and yes, male models ;-).
I was one of the judges and had a lot of fun picking out the winners of each phase.The best part of RT for me is meeting the readers and booksellers. They took the time to attend the conference and the booksigning and I love to listen to their comments about my stories. It's also an opportunity for me to thank the people who've bought my books and share my world with me.And of course, let's not forget the parties ;-).
I'm still recovering from all the balls and games, LOL*. Some people recharge their batteries by exercising. I do that by being with good friends and having fun.
RT05 Roaring 20s party
Believe me, the roofer girl in me doesn't get to dress up often!
Also, meeting with fellow authors in a relaxed atmosphere, I was able to brainstorm some great story ideas. In the works--a Kill Bill Vol. One kind of kick-ass heroine collaboration with another author. I'm really excited about this project and have already been given the green light to get a proposal ready. Of course, this is just a seedling--lots and lots of work ahead and nothing signed yet. But excitement is good for the writing soul!
Lastly, I've something to celebrate tonight. My publicist has sent me a small quote from RT that will be part of the review for The Hunter next month. Can I toot my horn a little bit, please?
“Few authors can hit the ground running and immediately prove they are genre forces to be reckoned with; Gennita Low is one of those special few. Her hard edged, gritty and romantic thrillers are genuine thrill rides!”- Jill M. Smith, Romantic Times BOOKclub

Hoooyah! It feels so good when someone gets "it." Now I've to go back to revisions and packing for the next convention. Oh, didn't I tell you? I'm going out of state for some great workshops and a meeting with a cool SEAL dude. And oh, the guy you see in the pic above promised me a cooked duck since Christmas. An appetizer, he promised. How can an uber-roofer refuse that?
