What a weekend it has been! Many of the Harlequin Heartwarming authors attended the National RWA Conference in New York City this weekend. It was a blast and no one knows how to party like Harlequin!
Our first event together was a dinner with the editors. There were a lot of us, but we managed to get everyone in one shot!
Friday was our signing day! Tara, Carol, Melinda, Amy, Kate, and Jennifer all signed for Heartwarming. I put Anna's Berkley signing pic in too because isn't she too cute?
Friday night was the best night yet and fun was had by all at the Harlequin Black and White Ball at the Waldorf Astoria's Starlight Room. It was simply amazing! Tempting desserts, gorgeous dresses, cool lit-up book centerpieces, fun-loving editors and authors cutting loose on the dance floor. A fun time was had by all.
I think I can speak for everyone when I say we cannot thank Harlequin and the Heartwarming editors enough for such a wonderful experience!
We'd also like to thank everyone who participated in the Heartwarming RWA promotion. Without further ado, we'll announce the winners of our at-home contest. Drum roll, please ....
