Romance Writers of America

RWA is Romance Writers of America. It is the national association for published and aspiring romance writers. Its a site for people who write romance and want to meet or join clubs with others that are writing or trying to write books about romance or with romance in them.

I joined becuase I wanted to learn more about romance and get input from others. Luckily, I have meet other romance writer in the area. But, there is not a chapter here in International Fall or close so that I may go and meet others. Maybe other romance writers will see this and want to start one here which would be nice.

The only thing I don't like about RWA is that they don't encourage people who write to published by someone that you  pay for their books like I did. I don't see the problem. If you want to get published, why should it matter how you get published as long as you get published. Maybe they aren't as good, but I like the published I picked. I don't have to spend years getting published and have the freedom to do what i want. I have all the rights to my book and free to market or write another book. But, I still like getting the monthy magazine. It is always filled with great stories and advice. My membership will be up in July so I have to hurry up and pay. It really is a good magazine..I would recommend it to anyone who is staring or have been writing to check out thier website. You can locate it at Google or Yahoo! Under Romance Writers Of America..

I would love to hear from other writers who are published by a regular or have been published by an sanity or vanity published and tell me what you like or didn't like about them.

I just got my monthy RWR magazine and I read they are having their yearly conference in California. I would love to go, but I can't afford it and am afraid of flying. I would love to hear from other writers or people who have attend or going to attend this year...it sounds like alot of fun. Maybe next year...

I am getting closer to become a published romance writer..should be out by the late January..my book is called A Pirate's Romance..I think it is a good book, but I it's not polished. It has to be perfect...I hope to become a bestseller even make it into a movie..starring Stone Cold Steve Austin if he would do it..he would be the hero or the villian which he would be prefer..yes, I am a fan, but also think he is a good actor seeing him in The Longest Yard and The Condemmed..
