I'm thrilled to have finalled, but also extremely nervous about the awards night -- I get goosebumps just thinking about it. <br /><br />I hope to see your name on the finalists' list next year.

One of the nice things about nights like the Awards Dinner is meeting new people - and as soon as we started talking about favourite authors, I knew I'd found a new friend. :)Rachel Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08200504088343160284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-22448328943807830292011-05-14T20:26:53.514+10:002011-05-14T20:26:53.514+10:00You're not coming, Tracie? :pout: Conferences ...You're not coming, Tracie? :pout: Conferences just keep getting better, what with fabulous author days and evenings where readers can meet writers and get autographed copies.

Do you know where it's being held next year? <br />I think a Romance Readers Award is a fab idea!

I have also been to The Aust Romance Reader Awards nights for the past 3 years and they are a blast as well.<br />I am not sure what I would like to win an award for perhaps a good romance reader LOL<br /><br />Best of luck and huge congrats to Michelle, Natalie and Emily for this years awards<br />Have Fun<br />HelenHelenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03984438742736003285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-67006526143359574502011-05-14T13:43:37.683+10:002011-05-14T13:43:37.683+10:00It was, indeed, a weird Bloggers Day!

I saw a comment from Helen on the original, but it didn't come back when the post did. Strange.<br /><br />But onto more important topics. YAYAY for Nat, Michelle & Emily!! <br /><br />I've read Emily's The Unmasking of A Lady - fabulous, *fabulous*! The heroine is a thief in Regency London but also part of the ton and the hero is trying to unmask the thief, not realizing she's been under his nose the whole time. It was fun and romantic and reading about the slums was a real treat.<br /><br />And I *adored* Michelle's The Cattleman, The Baby and Me. The baby Harry was gorgeous and our hero Liam was trying to do his best by his nephew Harry and by the heroine but it was so hard for him with his history. I'll never forget the heroine dancing around to ABBA. :) The whole book was beautiful!<br /><br />And the best news? I haven't read Natalie's Hot Boss, Boardroom Secrets, which means I have a treat waiting in store! Love, love to find new great books and this one will be great!<br /><br />Thanks for highlighting our R*BY finaling cats, Robbie!Rachel Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08200504088343160284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-46646048671544345492011-05-13T05:15:35.701+10:002011-05-13T05:15:35.701+10:00Whoo Hoo congrats Ladies I am soo excited for you ...Whoo Hoo congrats Ladies I am soo excited for you all and have my fingers crossed for you all.<br />And yes I was at the R*by Awards dinner last year lucky me and had a blast I have also attended the last 3 ARRA romance readers awards dinners and truly I have loved every minute of being there.<br />If I could win an award not sure what I would choose but I would thank my family and friends <br /><br />Have Fun<br />HelenHelenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03984438742736003285noreply@blogger.com
