Since this is my fantasy, and I'm stuck in hot St. Louis,
This mix and mingle is held on a tropical beach side. They're serving virgin daquiries and margaritas (I want you sober for the workshops). So pick up a glass with one of those colorful umbrellas and come do the limbo with me.
How low can you go?
Hey Lashaunda,
I'm in with a virgin strawberry daquery in one hand and my How to Succeed in the Publishing Game book by Vickie Stringer. Let's do it!
I don't know about taking it down low though, LOL.
Hi LaShaunda,
Looking forward to the conference.
Margo
Welcome Shani and Margo.
I hadn't heard about Vickie's book, I'll have to add it to my to read list.

Hi,
Really love the conference and can't wait to participate.
Thank you for doing this and organizing it each year. This conference is a great alternative to RWA because 1. it's online, 2. it's free and 3 has workshops and panels that are relevant and interesting to me as a writer.
And I'll have a virgin frozen mango margarita and a sexy cabana boy toy to serve it to me and fan me while I lounge on the beach.
I got in!!
I add my thanks, Lashaunda, to those who've already done so. This is great idea!
I've got my daiquri in hand, and I'm watching that boy toy who brought it to me walk away. Yum!

Angeleque and Kathy,
Thanks for stopping by. I'm glad the conference is something you want to attend.
My goal is to make it an alternative to the conference you pay for. Sometimes we want to attend confernces but our budgets say no.
Hey I forgot about the cabana boys. Can mine look like Albert Pujoes?
Hi Ladies,
I'm very much looking forward to this conference! Thanks LaShaunda for hosting it and organizing it! This my first online experience, and I know it's going to be grand!
And I'm not much of a drinker, but I'll have a cabana boy fan me please....
I'm looking forward to another conference. I'll be keeping some weird hours but will get back with everyone during the days I'm scheduled. I can't wait to mix and mingle with everyone.
Hi, all. My name is Andrea aka the Paperback Diva. This is my first on-line conference and I'm looking forward to it.

Hello!
Welcome Valerie, Shelia, and Andrea!
I hope the conference is a great experience.
Waving back at you Michelle :)
Hi LaShaunda,
A virgin strawberry daquiri sounds wonderful about now! I'm definitely looking forward to conference which will be my first.
I self-published my first book, "Does God Really Hear Me When I Cry? A Life Transformed" which is due out next month and I'm really excited that I'm finally pursuing my dream.
Hey LaShaunda,
I'm so happy to be able to participate in your conference this year.
As always, you do a great job in organizing the conference. I can't wait.
Take Care.
Hi lhaywood and Sean, thanks for stopping by.

Hey LaShaunda (from across the room over the heads of all the folks in front of me)!
Your online conference was my first introduction to the writing world on the Internet. This is my third SORMAG conference. Thanks so much for hosting such a great opportunity again!

Welcome Marissa and Pat!
Pat I know one of these days these conferences will pay off for us and we'll be the instructors instead of the attendees. :)
Hi Ayn,
You made it through.
This conference is going to be wonderful!
Hi LaShaunda:
Just stopping by to say hello and to make sure that my blogger account that I created a very long time ago was in fact still good. So if you are reading this post, then I am good to go for the online conference . . . .woo-hoo! Thanks for this opportunity and I look forward to the online interaction of everyone!

Thanks for stopping by chiki and Marlive
Hi everyone! I am happy to be able to get to know everyone!
Hi D.L. welcome to the fun.
I love the idea of a free online conference! Both aspects of that work best for me! This is my first; I've self-published some but I'm going through a lot of changes and a lot of revisions. Learning the craft is very important to me too. And I'll take one of those margaritas, please, Pool Person lol!
Montgomery
Schenectady, New York says: Hi LaShaunda,
Well, I made it on here...as computer challenged as I am. Can't wait to participate on the published romance author's panal.
Enjoy your fun in the sun!
I thought I would never get the blogger password thing together, but here I am! I hope I'll be able to participate this weekend. We had lots of thunder and lightening last night and my cable internet is out. They are coming to fix it tomorrow so we'll see.
I'm looking forward to sharing and learning.
Blessings,
Rhonda
I just registered! I'm really looking forward to this. Now I have to go and find myself a nice cocktail and mingle... :-)
Gwyneth
Welcome Montgomery, Roberta, Rhonda and Gwyneth.
The best part about the conference to me is meeting new people.
Regan here with her MaiTai! I have a blogger account so let's see if this works! This is way cool and already I can see how much work you do for this Lashaunda! Thank you.
Hello Everyone,
Just wanted to stop in and mingle a little before I rush out the door. I'm so excited about participating in the meet the erotic authors panel. See you all Sunday!

Hi Regan, Koko, Bonnie
Welcome!
Hello, everyone! What a great group. This is my first SORMAG conference so am looking forward to learning the ropes.
I'm a women's fiction author and have a few books out and working on a few others.
I'll stand over here and when necessary, someone point me in the right direction.
Thanks!
Welcome Vicki,
Just follow the crowd :)
Hi, I'm Debbie the newbie! I have no idea how this is going to work, but I'm really excited about conf!
I can already tell this is going to be fun!
Hi,
If I'd known this was going to be held on a tropical beach I'd have dieted. I'll be wearing a moo-moo : )
Nikki Arana
Hi,
Wanted to drop by and say hello! My second year attending the conference, and i know it will be great, thanks to our wonderful moderator Lashaunda! My name is Diane Dorce', I'm an author/publisher and it's good to be here!
Helloooooooooo from North Dakota!
Looks like I'll be in a distinct minority here - as usual. I think 95% of Christian fiction authors are female. I hope you don't mind me lowering that percentage! Thanks Lashaundra for hosting this!

Hey Everybody,
Evelyn from Austin. Glad to be here.

Kathy from Chicago glad to be here
Hello everybody!
I just felt like Grover from Sesame Street saying that just now, lol! I'm guessing it's pretty obvious I live in a house ruled by toddlers...
(Waving to everyone) After the month I've had, I'm the one who sneaked in some tequila to spike all my drinks! But I'm so glad to be here.
LaShaunda's online conference was the first one I was able to attend after my first daughter was born and I was so grateful for her offering it because there was no way I could afford to attend with a newborn--I didn't have the money or a babysitter. I learned so much then, and all the things I gleaned from that conference have helped me get where I am in my writing career. I'm really excited to be attending another SORMAG Extravaganza. I look forward to talking more with you all.
Just don't tell my husband if I pinch one of those cabana boys!
I'm checking in... This is my second conference here and I know I will enjoy this one as much as I enjoyed the first one. I'm looking forward to it.

St. Louis has been on a hot campaign and I mean its been hot. The one day I need to be on the computer it chose to rain. Since I need the computer for this week. I decided to pack up and get off lol.
I'm looking forward to chatting with everyone.
Check back tonight after eight and you can begin the conference.
Thanks again for attending.
