My Best Friend's Wedding

My best friend got married tonight. She and her man have been together for more than two decades, but it took this long to tie the knot!

She looked beautiful, in a pale silver strapless wedding dress - bridesmaids wore black and white. My dress was so nice, it's the first one of these that I will definitely use again.

But it was such a joy to dance at her wedding (although my feet were killing me).

I've been the friend of the mother of the bride for the most recent weddings I've gone to, so it was so nice to be the best friend of the bride.

And how's this for romantic?

I'm leaving in a few hours for my first Romance Writers of America conference.

Twenty years as an agent, and I've never been to one before.

But I'm selling so much erotica and romantic erotica, that this is the place to be this year.

Don't you just love weddings? I do. And to see longtime lovers finally get married is the most romantic of all.

I'll be interested to hear how things go at RWA. My experiences w/ the org have not been positive. Both the national org and my local chapter are very hostile to erotica and erotica writers. RWA as an org is actually quite conservative. There was even a movement among the leadership a couple years back to prohibit authors of gay-oriented romance books from membership.
