I Won! I Won!

 

Last week I left Baby Galen and Ultimate Sportsfan for 36 hours to travel to Los Angeles for the Romantic Times Convention. I hadn’t planned on going. We just moved two weeks ago, and I was frazzled enough without trying to pack and prepare for a business trip.

 

But I had to go. You see, my hero Armand from THE MAKING OF A GENTLEMAN won the Historical K.I.S.S. (Knight in Shining Silver) Hero Award. I rarely win anything, much less an award, so I knew I had to be there to receive this one.

The Making of a Gentleman by Shana Galen

I’m so glad I went. The conference was really fun, L.A. was cold but awesome, and I got to hobnob with fellow Quills Jan Kenny and Kathryn Smith.

Have you ever won anything? Previously, I was pretty proud of the blueberry pie eating contest I won when I was 8.

    Thanks for the congrats everyone! I’m still happily polishing my award. And, Margo, I think I had a harder time being away than anyone else. Life went on without me! (sniff)

    Oh, big congratulations!! I won a couple of art awards when I was very young and my youngest (24) has won quite a few – as a mother I am more thrilled for her lol.

    Congrats! I won a prize for physics in high school (I suspect that the school flipped a coin to see who would get the chemistry prize and who the physics one between me and the valedictorian).
