Here we go…


Me and Jax Cassidy. She is a little ball of fire.


Me and RG Alexander. We’re in love. That’s why she’s groping me.


Kristen Painter. She’s lovely isn’t she?


With Jackie Barbosa and Shelli right before the RITA ceremony. I wish I would’ve had more time to talk to Jackie! She’s a sweetie.


A shot of the rowdy crowd I sat next to at the RITA ceremony. Rhonda Stapleton, Gwen Hayes and Kate Pearce. You think Rhonda is a hoot on the Diva forum? Wow, meet her in person. She is in constant movement – and so funny! I had the best time just watching her…

Finally! http://karenwritesromance.com/blog/2008/08/08/rwa-photos-finally/ http://karenwritesromance.com/blog/2008/08/08/rwa-photos-finally/#comments Fri, 08 Aug 2008 16:25:57 +0000 Karen http://karenwritesromance.com/blog/?p=461 I didn’t take very many. What’s wrong with me? Maybe I didn’t worry about it because my almost constant companion and roommate Shelli kept taking photos. If you don’t believe me go visit her blog. She took so many photos it took her one hundred plus hours to upload them all. Seriously. The woman is a camera nut. She almost lost that precious red camera too until some kind soul turned it in at the bar. Thank you kind soul!

Anywho let’s begin.


Ha! I didn’t even take this pic – Shelli did! It’s my first night there and I’m sitting with one of my favorite people, Lillian Feisty. Her tongue is out. How hot is that? You can see my fat gut but I don’t care.


Me, Lori Borrill and Tracy Wolff (oooh she has a pretty new site and it’s fab!). My Sizzling Pens blog buddies. They are so funny and so sarcastic. Love them. Wish I would’ve seen Lori more. Tracy was my date at the Harlequin party. She’s a good dancer.


Me and fellow EC author Amy Ruttan. What a sweetheart.


The lovely Eden Bradley and I at the Romance Divas dinner. That lemon chicken was most excellent, I don’t care what you say about yardbird Loribelle.

Speaking of yardbird here I am with Loribelle Hunt and Crystal Jordan at the dinner. Aren’t we precious?


Me and Anna J. Evans at Friday’s luncheon. Anna is the first person I ever met at RWA (Reno in 05). Though back then we were other people, ahem. I looked up her other persona over a year ago, curious as to what happened to that sweet and pretty girl and lo and behold I found out she was someone I knew through blog land! So crazy.


My bff Kate Pearce and the lovely Kristen Painter. These ladies rock. And we all happen to have names that start with K. Which means we are especially awesome. Now I sound like I’m in high school.

Now check this photo out…


This is me and Shelli and my KID! Yes he was in the bay area with his father and they swung by so I could see him and give him a hug for a quick minute. Isn’t that great?

Okay I have more but I think I’ll share them with you tomorrow. I took more than I thought…
