I should have called this blog ‘Name dropping’ because I will be doing a lot of it. But it’s hard not to when I spent the whole RWA conference going ‘OMG thats so and so’ and running around getting books signed by these authors. Lets start at the beginning. We flew over to the Gold Coast with my family for a few fun filled days before the conference.

I’ve been wanting to read and review a book for Australian Women Writers challenge for a while now, but everything I’ve read has been in my own genre or not relevant.

I loved Jo. Such a strong woman,
