Golden Heart

Bitchpants = Loose

Nicola over at Alpha Heroes has very politely reminded me that it's been a LONG time since I've updated this blog. I know this is no excuse, but... I've been writing. Frantically. For some reason, and likely under the influence of hallucinogens, I entered the 2009 Golden Heart contest. While my Bitchpants are Loose, it's two months before the contest submission deadline and my panties are definitely in a wad.

For those of you who may not know, The Golden Heart is the Romance Writers of America's annual contest for unpublished romance manuscripts. It's kind of a big deal. And why, you ask, did I decide to push my first/only (and not quite finished) manuscript out into the world by entering the biggest friggin' writing contest in Romancelandia? Do not ask me. Like I said, I was under the influence. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

I have to stop tweaking the first two chapters and start writing the dreaded synopsis.
