Golden Apple

Happy Friday! You and me made it another week. Whew. Yeah baby! Don’t be tardy for the party. Ooooo Ooooo. About 6 of you will get that. The rest will think I’m cra-a-zy. Please excuse me. How dreadful. LOL.

Well, I am happy it’s Friday as you can tell. Last night I had a very un-dreadful night slipping out of Freshchester, as my dear friend calls it, and heading down to the city to celebrate some very fine people in the romance writing industry at my local RWA/NYC chapter’s Golden Apple Awards.

The honorees were:

Lifetime Achievement: Kathleen E. Woodiwiss

Go Patt!!

Publisher of the Year:Harlequin

(The Irene Goodman Literary Agency)

Bookseller of the Year: Clove Lake Book Store (Staten Island)

What a wonderful night for an industry that I love. Big congrats to all the honorees!

Best,

Kwana
