The Romance Community

Jump to Comments

How important is the Romance Community to you?  To me, it’s very important.  I’ve found many new friends via blogs or eharlequin.  I’ve found writing buddies and reading pals.  People who are very much like me.  I’m part of Tales because of the community.  If I hadn’t found this, where would I be in my own writing career?

In all actuality, I haven’t been a part of the community for all that long.  I don’t even really remember when it all started.  But, I do remember how it started.  I came across the wonderful site eharlequin.  What’s so funny is that I’m not really a big fan of harlequin books.  I’d been googling writing communities and that site was one of the first I came across.  I signed up & started flitting around the little communities there until I found 20-Something Writer’s.  I thought “Oh, kindred spirits!”  This was about 3 1/2 years ago.

From eharlequin I got into the blogging community.  I started my own blog and began searching for likeminded people.  Found some wonderful authors that I NEVER would have found before the blogs.  I was able to bare my soul to the world and made some wonderful friends because of it.

A group of fellow readers and I are doing a fun project listing our top heroes of all time.  In-fighting, trading, bragging…it’s all in good fun.  And to top it all off, I think I’ve found a brainstorming buddy!  How cool is that?

So, in the end, this blog is more a thank you than anything.  It’s allowing me to say how much I appreciate this wonderful community I’ve found myself a part of & how I don’t think I’d be who I am today without it.
