Thanks to all of our Skiffy Rommers for their fab posts last week. It was great to have you aboard.
Now, the RWA 29th Annual National Conference in Washington D.C. is just days away—only two, in fact! While we hope that the attendees have wonderful and informative experiences, we’re not about to miss out on all the fun. Parallel Universe will cover RWA from a uniquely SFR perspective, comfortably ensconced on this luxury locomotive as it journeys forward.
Will some lucky aspiring writer gain a coveted manuscript request? Will editors express interest in acquiring more SFR novels? Will President Obama make an appearance to declare science fiction romance the Queen Of All Genres? One never knows!
While we await news and other tidbits from the conference, The Galaxy Express is proud to host a second series of guest posts by science fiction romance authors.
In order of appearance, they are:
July 15:
Katherine Allred
Jess Granger
July 16:
Nathalie Gray
Karin Shah
July 17:
Claire Delacroix
July 18:
Gayle Ann Williams

(On a side note, check out this recent comment by author Sherry Thomas at the Dear Author Rogue Digital Workshop announcement:
I will be there.
Janine, Bettie Sharpe, and I (and maybe Meredith Duran, if she ever gets free time again) have a crazy anthology that I don’t know which trad publisher will touch.
Bettie’s is alternate-universe steampunk, Janine’s is a story-within-a-story fantasy/contemporary erotic romance, Meredith’s, if I remember correctly, might turn out to be a very unusual paranormal, and mine is straight science fiction romance. [all emphasis mine])
‘Nuff said.
Meanwhile, Laurie Green of Spacefreighters’ Lounge (who is attending the conference so please
Joyfully yours,
