I was happy to get a call tonight that The Reluctant Amazon is a paranormal finalist for the First Coast RWA's National Excellence in Romance Fiction Award!! :snoopy:

Being as the Rita calls go out tomorrow--which means I'll be staring at my extraordinarily silent phone and feeling nauseous--this was a nice call to receive!! :tongue

You're all so sweet!! I appreciate the kind messages. :Hug2:


So...was I the only one who noticed that Rita finalists were all big house books?? With the exception of Montlake (which has Amazon behind it), every single book that finaled was from a major house. No small press. No epubs. Nada.

Have to say I was very disappointed. Stands to show the schism between the "old guard" at RWA and the newbies they don't seem to want to include. JMHO... :Shrug:
