Party, Party, Party!

April and May have been very busy months with lots of social engagements and busy weekends, which is completely lovely but it then becomes tricky to fit in the writing, or my current stage, editing. 

Last week it was the RNA Summer Party which made me think about my trip down for the party last year. A year ago it was my first RNA event, I knew no-one and had no idea where I was heading (in more ways than one!) This year I was meeting up with friends I have been lucky enough to make as well as a quick trip to Fortnum and Masons (I mean why wouldn't you? It's just a few strides away and the macaroons are divine. I digress.) 

I also met up with a few of my Twitter friends I have made but never actually met and had a chat to some completely brilliant and successful authors including Julie Cohen, Liz Fenwick, Talli Rowland and Trisha Ashley. Last year I was star struck, this year I managed actual conversations with them, there was alcohol involved but I think I was still fairly coherent, well it was passable anyway.

The next event on the RNA calendar is the Conference, this year I know what to expect and I can't wait.
