New York Adventures in Travel...by Kristin Wallace
Since this month's theme is "adventures in travel", it seems the perfect time to talk about my trip to New York City in July.
First, I attended the Romance Writers of America (RWA) national conference. I got to spend quality time with my closest writer friends, celebrated my birthday, learned tons of information, and celebrated the best in romance fiction.
Then my parents flew up and

Romance Me
Welcome to my session in this series of Blogversations. I'll post a question and I'd love to see your responses. It's a bit of fun so let's keep the conversation flowing and along the way there'll be prizes!
My question is : Where is the most romantic place you've been, and why was it romantic?
The word 'romantic' conjures up images of sunsets, candles, open fires, champagne, a beautiful

Adventures in Travel #scifi #romance
Hi, I'm Pippa Jay, author of sci-fi and supernatural stories to engage your emotions. By strange coincidence with this month's topic, I'm currently on my travels! I'm spending a week on the Somerset/Dorset border with my family. This is the view from my cottage.
I haven't travelled hugely in my life - there's still lots of places I want to go - but we try to go different places in the UK to

Is time alone romantic???
When you think of a vacation or a treat and romance, I'm sure most people think of time with their romantic partner on... a beach
or enjoying a peaceful walk
or cuddling in front of a fireplace while Mother Nature and Ole Man Winter are doing their thing....
I'm In the need of a vacation…
I’m soooooo in need of a vacation! Sunday my 7 year-old received a head injury. The

International Films to Take You Away
Hi everyone!
I am Young Adult and Middle Grade author Barbara Binns, writer of contemporary and realistic fiction for adolescents and teens. As my tagline says, I write Stories of Real Boys Growing Into Real Men - and the people who love them.
I like to both read and write about characters, situations and places outside the ordinary. That's one reason I am an advocate for diverse books.

Au Revoir

After seven years as a Genre-ista with the second Tuesday of every month slot on the Romancing the Genres blog, this will be my last regular post.
Over those seven years I
shared my journey as I developed the craft of writing romance, ventured into
indie publishing, and learned about marketing.

Adventures? I've had a few!
By: Marcia King- Gamble

To say, I've had a few adventures in travel would be putting it mildly. You can't have been a flight attendant, or worked in the travel industry, without collecting an adventure or two.
None, however, is more memorable than one on my many visits to India. New Delhi, exactly. India appeals to the shopper and foodie in me. Back in the day

The Good and the Bad of a Disastrous Vacation
by Diana McCollum
May of 2018 my husband packed up the utility trailer with equipment for helping his daughter and her family build a house. At least the plan was he would supervise and sleep in the 1993 chevy van that was pulling the trailer. When he was done packing the trailer it was so full he had to use tarps and rope to keep everything contained.
He was so excited!

Adventures in Dutch Harbor/Unalaska, Alaska by Lynn Lovegreen
