The Romaniacs Have Arrived. 17.02.12
Wow! What a week.
On Monday, eight RNA NWS friends and I launched our new blog, The Romaniacs and were received with warmth, support and interest beyond our expectations.
On reflection, we know precisely how supportive the members of the RNA, including the New Writers, are and should not have been surprised, but it was just us, after all.
Thank you for such a fantastic reception.
The idea of forming a collective of New Writers began at the Festival of Romance, in October last year. Not all nine of us were there, but the set was complete at the RNA Christmas Party.
Fate had thrown us together.
I won’t go into the details of how we all met, suffice it to say, five of us stayed at the same hotel for the Christmas Party and it was a hoot.
Cynical as I am, I would not have believed such strong bonds could be formed so instantly, but it has happened. We have faith and trust in one another. We ask each other’s opinions about our writing and we expect honest replies, otherwise, what’s the point? Between the nine of us, we have a large pool of knowledge and experience/s, which we are happy to share.
And I have to tell you that when I am with these ladies, or Facebooking or Tweeting with them, I laugh like a drain. It’s not an attractive image, I know.
We are kindred spirits who share a love of books and writing.
