Karen here: I'm out of the country this week (more on that to come in a future post), so I invited the lovely and talented Regina Jennings to fill in for me today. Regina and I roomed together this summer at the RT Reader Convention in Dallas, and we had a blast. She even got me to do a little two-steppin' at one of the western romance sessions.

This conference is where I met my editors, my … [Read more...]

Or at least I have so far. This is my first week in the new job. I've been busy with training and learning new systems and have been on the phone with the Help Desk about 47 times to get all my technology working … [Read more...]
