Writing Life

March 26, 2007

Melissa James (who will become famous as Avery Beck) is a finalist in the short contemporary category for the Golden Heart contest. For all you who are not future romance writers, the Golden Heart is the biggie for unpublished authors, comparable to the Oscars.

She’s worked very hard and is an amazing talent.

The feeling of seeing a friend succeed is wonderful. It’s like when your home team is going to the Superbowl.
