The LDS Storymakers Writers Conference is always a huge highlight of my year. I frequently serve on some sort of committee (and was the co-chair with Annette Lyon a few years ago), teach workshops, host agents/editors, run pitch sessions, etc. This year I served as the Whitney President, and at the last minute I was asked to host Harlequin editor Victoria Curran, which I was so happy to accept....

Overall entertaining. Sometimes the humor felt too forced, and I was wondering what is the point of this book, but I kept reading because I loved the characters. Great ending.

Heather It was my first time at WIFYR. A looong conference! Thanks Christy.


Christy Congratulations on your Best in State Award. That's great!! It was nice to see you in Kristyn's class today. You are a busy lady. You seem to get around everywhere. Thanks again for your help at LDS Storymakers. Christy Monson


Heather Since I live in Utah, my library carries most of them. I put in "purchase requests" a lot. I also trade with friends. I'll buy if it's a favorite author. I've done interlibrary loan as well (it's $2.00). I've also bought used copies at www.half.com

Jenny Heather,
How can you afford so many LDS books - or where do you get them? Living in California, I would love to read more of the LDS genre, but can't find them (is there any online Library)? I basically stick to the local library for my books (and books on tape). I just sign up for the books I would like, and sooner or later the library calls with the book available.


Heather That's pretty cool :)


Candace Salima Hi Heather,

Here's our comparison:

You and Heather have 23 books (or 10.04% of your library and 45.10% of their library) in common. Your tastes for those 23 ratings are 82% similar.

Wahoo!

Candace
