RT Convention

As count down for the release of Say You'll Be Mine officially started for me this month with the the reciept of my cover image, I've been busy with the usual - getting bookmarks printed, planning workshops, preparing for contests, and establishing a Facebook page for the book itself, which I've officially launched - yay! You should be able to "Like" by searching for the title. Otherwise, here is the link.

A couple of weeks

ago, I attended the RT Convention at the Bonaventure Hotel in Los Angeles, and it was so much fun. I met so many wonderful readers - maybe some of you!

Hatchett Book Group had an amazing banner outside of Club RT with the title of books that will be released soon. I was excited to see Say You'll Be Mine there!! Since I could't take the banner (though I wanted to) I took a picture.

The setting for Say You'll Be Mine is in the wine country of Temecula Valley in California and the wine capital of Argentina, Mendoza. So, starting this month, I'll be featuring various wineries in Southern California that you may be interested in visiting. And there will be a fun contest connected with the winery series. Check back on Wednesday, May 4th for more details.

Hugs,

Julia
