After all, no one exists in our imagination but us and a few thousand clamoring characters. Yet we also say that no one succeeds in this business alone. Each of us tend to have support networks, and just as in life, the smaller the support network, the more stressful the journey can be.<\/p>\n<p>I am a relatively new writer. I have no writer\u2019s group or critique partner. I have no RWA chapter near. I\u2019ve found an online forum I like, and it has given me many opportunities for workshops and information gathering.<\/p>\n<p>But every year, I go to at least one writer\u2019s or reader\u2019s conference. And what going to <strong>RWA Nationals<\/strong> in NYC meant for me this year was sanity. It means people who understand the frustration that boils in your skin when life keeps you from writing for weeks at a time. It means women who want to talk about characters as if they\u2019re free-formed entities who made choices on their own (sometimes they do). It means fellow dreamers to swoon with over our favorite books.<\/p>\n<p>Going to a conference means you are face to face with people who are passionate about books. And they are the people who make this journey worth it. Others might say that a true writer <em>must<\/em> write. That if there were no readers, we\u2019d still get satisfaction from \u201cThe End\u201d and we\u2019d still be writers. But <em>authors<\/em> are people who want to connect, and that means revising, editing, cover stress, and a host of other not-so-fun aspects to the industry end of this activity.<\/p>\n<p>If you do all that and can never connect, it begins to feel more than a little lonely. Social media (like Beverley\u2019s blog) helps. Conferences help. Reviews are great (usually). But the best, <em>the very best thing ever<\/em>, is when a reader bothers to contact me directly in a private email. The relationships I\u2019ve built with some of my readers strengthens me as much as it honors me.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/beverleykendall.com\/contest.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-6882\" title=\"ipad2_logo\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theseasonforromance.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/ipad2_logo.jpg?resize=100%2C130\" alt=\"\" width=\"100\" height=\"130\" \/><\/a>I\u2019m here to tell you, conferences are great. If you\u2019ve never spent a day meeting other people who want to discuss heroines\u2019 best lines or heroes\u2019 most wonderful rescues, I recommend it. <strong>Also, if you\u2019d like to leave a comment about why, why\u00a0 not, or how you contact your favorite authors, you\u2019ll be in the pool to win an ebook (pdf) of your choice from my offerings. Winner will be chosen tomorrow!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Comment and also enter to win an entry for the Grand Prize Drawing for an iPad 2!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>But really, what I\u2019d like to share most is that the time a reader takes to contact an author, however you do it, and say \u201cI liked your book\u201d is magical. It\u2019s amazing. It\u2019s humbling. It\u2019s what makes our world go round, and what makes us bother to submit another manuscript after a round of tough revisions. Please don\u2019t think authors are untouchable, unapproachable, or you\u2019d be \u201cbothering\u201d us. Also, don\u2019t think we\u2019re invisible when you leave your witty detailed critique on Goodreads. Here\u2019s a theme song to get you in the mood! <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=8gEAQQCFlNM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=8gEAQQCFlNM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>So this is my goal after RWA: go to my recent additions to my keeper shelf, and email them. Also, plan the next conference I attend. Tables of free books, late night discussions at the bar, dressing to the nines for people who care to notice your cute shoes, and awesome Romance Trading Cards\u2026 I can\u2019t wait until next time.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mimawithin.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6899\" title=\"trilogy_mima\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theseasonforromance.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/trilogy_mima.jpg?resize=600%2C300\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Mima lives in the Finger Lakes of New York and is spending the summer rearranging her cottage garden and writing on her porch.
