Wednesdays With Joanne - "Let's Give `Em Something to Blog About"

Hi everyone,

As of November 14th, Romance Writers of America has re-sanctioned Five Star as an accepted non-subsidy, non-vanity publisher! For a while we were off the list, and so its nice to be back on. I can't pretend to know the ins and outs or the exact nature of the ongoing debate; I'm just glad we're approved now.

I'm going to enter A...My Name's Amelia in the RITA, RWA's prestigious annual award. It's just fun to be able to enter, which I'd best hurry and do since the deadline is Nov 3oth! Since Amelia has enjoyed several print runs and is soon going into large print, I thought it worthy of entry. Nothing ventured, right? Amelia got 4&1/2 stars from Romantic Times Magazine so I might have a shot. cough cough As I said, I'm just happy to be able to enter.

This also makes my membership in Colorado Romance Writers, one of the local Colorado chapters of RWA, all the more sweet.

Thanks for listening ...

Jo(anne)
