The best thing about attending the conference was getting the chance to meet fellow Minxes. There were three of us in Penrith this year: Lorraine, Sally and I. This was the first time I'd met Sally, which made the occasion extra special. It really is odd meeting someone you know so well online in person for the first time. You know so much about them... yet they're still strangers. Luckily, by the end of the conference, we were definitely no longer strangers!

The workshops were interesting, the food rather good, and the weather dry. All three of us Minxes got to have our fan girl moments with favourite Harlequin author India Grey, but really every author present was just fabulous.

Huge thanks to the conference organisers, Jan Jones and Roger Sanderson for a lovely, smooth, educational and entertaining weekend.

Great to meet you in person finally too, Romy! I especially like that third picture, which was me warning Denise Deegan not to give me 'rabbit ears' in the photo - so features the back of my head instead!
Sally! I had no idea you were a Minx of Romance when we were tickling each other with feathers and saying 'yes!' in as many ways as possible. Er...that sounds wrong doesn't it! Blame Liz Bailey! ;)
Lovely pics! Dead jealous I didn't go now, maybe next time!
Seems like it was wonderful, you guys!!
Jealous Sri...
Fab pictures romy, lovely to meet the minxes!
Hi Cally! *waves* that was the funnest workshop wasn't it? And sniffing nappies, but we won't go there!
Romy, it was wonderful to meet you all after hanging out here at the blog, and an especially big treat as you'd travelled such a long way to be there. I'm still coveting your beautiful velvet coat... (though have a feeling it wouldn't look half as elegant on me.)
Hi Sally - I lovethat picture too. I had two more serious posed ones, but I thought this one was much more fun!
Hi Cally - sounds like I missed some fun there!
Thanks, India. I'm blushing!
