GenreCon was good. This writers confrence had lots this year, but not as many attendees as pervious ones. The Picture is the featured Authors. From Left to Right- Janna MacGregor, Cathy Maxwell, Shawntelle Madison, - Sierra Simone. The panel told us their writing process, their favorite authors and the very first book they read in the romance genre. The best part...they shared personal stories about spouses and how in everyday life they were put into situations never imagined. Will not spill the beans here, but fun was had.

With Brigerton Sieries on NetFlix-being all the rage since lockdown- A special perk was the Interview with Julia Quinn. She was delightful. So down to earth and very entertaining. Julia worked with Shonda Rhimes, creator of GreysAtatomy, Scandal, How to get away with Murder, etc on the latest book Queen Charlotte, my all time favorite in the Bridgerton series.   

At The confrence we learned about distancing words, putting more emotion into our writing and structuring of beats in a novel. If you follow me on facebook you may have seen the picture I colored with KAthy Maxwell at the opening gathering.  That's how the week in August 2024 went.
