    Fresh Fiction Readers Gathering
    What's the Readers 'n 'ritas Conference?

    You've heard our infamous stories of having so much fun we've been tossed from bars, asked to leave restaurants, closed down tea rooms. Now's your chance to have such a good time -- you'll become part of the legend!

    So what do you get? Well a day of sessions on topics like: Covers Tell the Story, Deals and Steals, So You Want To Be a Reviewer, Books You May Have Missed, Book Club How-tos and Don'ts, plus fun stuff like Do You Miss the Euphemisms? and Care and Handling of a Top Notch Book Collection. Plus lots of time to sit and discuss books with fellow passionate readers.

    And food, did we forget? Lunch and dinner will be with authors up close and personal in an informal way and for longer than a signing. Our author guests include some names you're familiar with -- Sherrilyn Kenyon, Lauren Willig, Dakota Cassidy, Rosemary Clement-Moore, Jodi Thomas, Michele Bardsley, Dianna Love plus names you'll KNOW after the conference including Jaye Wells! And our mistress of talk is the bubbly and fabulous local radio personality AND author Candace Havens!

    Raise your glass (or pitcher) with new friends and passionately discuss books. It may sound contentious but when else will you have the opportunity to sound off on the direction a fave author takes in a series, or find out if that new book is worth the hype, or discover a brand-new-to-you series! It's all part of what we call 'rita therapy.' And the first margarita is included!

    You'll also get to browse, buy and trade at the huge romance book trade. Complete a collection or start a new one! And what gathering is complete without raffle baskets? All the money we raise goes to literacy so you'll be helping others share your passionate obsession with books!

    Plus test your knowledge (and win prizes) by stumping the experts on your knowledge of romance novels, authors and trivia. Where else will you get to show off some of that "useless" information you've learned over the years of reading? It's time for the payoff! And all in good fun!

    And wait, that's not all, you'll also get a swag bag filled with books and other goodies! So don't delay, be part of the legend and join us on October 11th!

    Get your TICKET today!! Tell your friends and join us for a 'rita on Saturday, October 11th!!!

    Don't despair, if you can't come this year, we'll be having another extravaganza in November 2009 -- stay tuned for the info!
