RWA in HOTlanta!
I think I’m finally rested up from the Romance Writers of America (RWA) Conference in Atlanta, Georgia a week+ ago. It was amazing! There were so many workshops and over 2,000 writers/agents/editors there. It’s a whirlwind of seeing friends I only see in
person at these events, along with the nonstop activities RWA puts together. As always, it’s kind of exhausting but majorly inspiring to be in this enivornment …. and in such an amazing city this year. Atlanta was indeed HOTlanta, but it didn’t damper my activities when I had breaks. I made it to the Georgia Aquarium and that was absolutely breathtaking, including a dolphin show. I recommend EVERYONE go do this! Kids not necessary for this fun!
So now that I’m back home, I’m beginning work on the next book with more ideas than ever. I seem to find at the beginning of the writing process that I have a ton of ideas I have to write down, leave for a few days, then return to with a fresh cup of coffee and fresh eyes. The ideas that don’t make the cut might surface again in a future story. Choosing the direction and starting a new adventure always feels so good. Thanks RWA for putting gas in my tank and pointing me in the right direction (again)!!!
