Like many writers, I love living in my cave, ninety percent of the time, hanging out with the characters I create but the other ten percent, I love getting out and hanging with fellow writers and readers. These are some of the places I’m going to be in the upcoming months—if you’re going to be at any of them, search me out, please. We’ll have a drink. We’ll hang. We’ll compare Cute Shoes.

The Florida Romance Writers Fun in the Sun Conference, Miami, Florida
So I like to plan ahead. Way ahead. But this is a no-brainer. My former hometown. Miami. In February. The heat’s minimal. The bugs are minimal. All good things. And it’s a great conference and one of my chapters. Definitely a no-brainer.
