Samhain wine extravaganza at RWA Nationals!

It’s all about the party! Samhain Publishing is thrilled to announce our plans to host an informal meet & greet at the RWA National Conference in Washington D.C. Attendees from all walks of the industry are invited to join us to mingle with favorite Samhain authors, chat with our editors, learn more about digital publishing and opportunities at Samhain, or just to drink really great wine. The event will be held Friday, July 17 from 4 to 5:30 p.m. at the conference hotel in Angela James’ suite. To receive the suite location, please enter your info into the widget below and it will be sent to you via text message Wednesday July 15th. Please note this is the same suite the Rogue Digital seminar will be held in so you only need to sign up for alerts on one event. (if you are reading this other than on Angela’s blog and cannot see widget, please visit there to enter your info into widget: http://nicemommy-evileditor.com/blog/?p=2506)

Please help us spread the word and reach out to RWA attendees this year in Washington D.C. See you all there!

    Hi Angie,

    I’m not sure if it takes Canadian numbers. So far I haven’t received a PIN #. Is there another way I can get a notice? Email? Because I’d need it for the Rogue conference as well.

    Thanks, Michelle

    Can I get an email instead of text? Am very interested in meeting everyone. Thank you so much for the opportunity.

    Send an email to imogen@samhainpublishing.com and she’ll send you an email with the information that week.

    The text message thingy doesn’t seem to be working on my phone…I didn’t get a PIN. I tried it for the Rogue seminar as well–no dice! Is it because I have a non-US number? How else can I find out where to be?

  10. Kate Johnson June 30, 2009 at 11:15 am #

    …okay, I took too long to post that and now I see Immi’s address! Will try her, thanks.

  11. katiebabs June 30, 2009 at 11:21 am #

    I will be there! Wine hmm…
    Quick question, how many texts will be sent? Just don’t want to go over my monthly texts.

  12. Angie June 30, 2009 at 11:23 am #

    Katie, only one text. We have a limited # of texts we can send, so it will be just one text with the room details.

  13. Jenna Ives June 30, 2009 at 11:27 am #

    I look forward to meeting my new fellow Samhain authors!

    Thanks,
    Jenna

    Thanks :D

  15. Michelle (MG) Braden June 30, 2009 at 11:32 am #

    Thanks – I’ve emailed Immi. :-)

  16. Thien-Kim June 30, 2009 at 12:27 pm #

    Do I have to register for RWA to attend? I just found out about RWA and I live in the metro area. Sounds like fun!

  17. Angie June 30, 2009 at 12:36 pm #

    Not at all, Thien-Kim, come say hello on Friday! And you’ll want to consider the literacy signing on Wednedsay evening, and the Bosoms and Beer signing (Smart Bitches signing their book) on Thursday evening!

  18. Thien-Kim June 30, 2009 at 12:42 pm #

    Thanks for the quick reply! It sounds like it’ll be a blast! I wish I could attend the conference, but can’t swing registration. Wonder if I have to be a member to be a volunteer helper? (So I can get a sneak peek at the conference)

    I’ll definitely be checking it out!

  19. Cynthia Eden June 30, 2009 at 7:30 pm #

    This sounds like such a fun event! I’ll definitely try to attend!

  20. Arianna Skye June 30, 2009 at 7:52 pm #

    Awesome idea! Count me in! Woot!

  21. Mary July 1, 2009 at 12:10 pm #

    hi,
    i didn’t receive the pin either. I hope I can receive the info by email. thanks

    If you email the address I posted earlier in the comments, my assistant will send it to you when the time comes!

  23. LBea July 2, 2009 at 12:01 pm #

    You have the most wonderful widgets!

    See you at RWA, Angie.

    Count me in, although my wine will have to be in the form of grape juice or water. I’ll be the pregnant one. ;)

    This sounds like such fun! Thanks so much for being the hostess with the mostest, Angie. Looking forward to meeting you.

    I plan to be there, too. I’m looking forward to meeting other Samhellions. :)

About Me


Angela James

There is nothing worse than writing a bio. And writing one for your blog sidebar? Blech. Maybe you landed here via Google, followed me from Twitter (does that make you a stalker?) or maybe we met at a conference or you clicked a link from a comment I made at a blog you visited. Hopefully whatever I said didn't make you so mad you came looking for a picture to throw darts at (yep, that's me up above, in my favorite cowboy hat) but instead drove you to find out more about the amazingly witty and intelligent person behind the amazingly witty and intelligent comment.

However you found me, who you found is Angela James, executive editor of Carina Press, Harlequin's new digital-first press. I'm passionate about digital publishing, my mission is to drag people to the digital dark side, one reader (and author) at a time. I'm also Brianna's mommy. At my blog you'll get an odd mix of personal and professional posts about parenting, publishing, books, cooking, sewing and life in general. Come back often, comment frequently and go green—buy ebooks!

Please note that this is my personal blog and my opinions are neither that of Harlequin, nor representative of their opinions.

Find Me Here

First, I blog once or twice a week at theCarina Press blog, talking about the job, the authors, the books and other things Carina Press. And, of course, you can always find me on Twitter. Or Facebook, if you prefer (mostly the same content, one feeds the other). I also run the Carina Press Twitter and Facebook accounts. Social media, it's where it's at (well, it's where I'm at, anyway).
