Yesterday, I checked my phone messages back in Townsville, and discovered the lovely news that Adopted: Outback Baby has been nominated by Romance Writers of America for a RITA in the short contemporary category.
How exciting!!!!!
This is my "grandparent" book -- about Nell and Jacob who were forced to separate and give up their baby, but found themselves coming together years later to care for their little grandson.
After gadding off to San Francisco last year, I'm afraid I won't be going to Washington DC for the awards ceremony, but I'm thrilled that three of my "writing mates" are also nominated.
Jessica Hart, who went to Yosemite with me last year, has a nomination for her 50th book Last Minute Proposal. Lillian Darcy's medical The Children's Doctor and the Single Mum is also up for a gong, as is Anne McAllister's Modern, Antonide's Forbidden Wife.
Yay to all of us!!!!!!!!
