Thank you to everyone for allowing me to use your wonderful work in the anthology. I am so excited for September!

Last year I attended The Muse Online Writers Conference as a participant, this year I’ll be going there as a participant -and- a presenter. That’s right, I’ll be there representing Niteblade and answering any questions people have. I’m also really nervous. Last year I noticed some forums didn’t have anyone posting in them — I don’t want to have one of those forums LOL So if you’re attending the conference (and you really should) pop by the Rhonda Parrish/Niteblade forum and say hi. You don’t want me to be sad and lonely do you?

Also, if you are a writer who has been published by Niteblade, there may be questions there you can answer better than I. Questions like, ‘Is Rhonda really the complete ogre we’ve heard she is?’ and such.

To register for the conference you just go to http://www.themuseonlinewritersconference.com/ and follow the registration link. It will take you to a mailing list. Once you join that Lea will send you all the information you need to pick your workshops and such in September.

I hope to see you there!
