So you didn’t make it to Romantic Times 2008?
Feeling bummed about it?
Awwww… don’t feel bad. Here’s a chance to win a bag of goodies I brought home, just for this purpose.
It’s got books in it (sorry, can’t remember which ones…or uh, where the bag is at the moment) it has promo goodies in it. A nice tote.
So not quite being there, but hey, you can get some of the goodies we got.
I’m going to make one condition to the contest-if you did go to RT, don’t enter. This is for those who weren’t able to go, okay? And always…if you’re unfamiliar with my contests, read the disclaimer. Cheaters get thrown out automtically, I do ship outside the country, but it might take a while, and you have to check back to see if you win-otherwise, it’s kind of hard to claim your prize.
Easy enough?
Okay, all you have to do to enter is drop your name into the comments section and tell me where you’d like to see RT at in the future. I’ll draw a winner sometime in the next week and post it here on the blog.
Contest is now over-the winner’s name has been drawn & posted. To eliminate confusion, comments on this post are now closed.

I didn’t go to RT!
I had school and clinicals and juts didn’t have the money to go, which sucked.
But I did read somewhere that next year, they’re having it in Orlando, FL and that’s around two hours away so I’m really hopeful I can go, I can’t wait!!
May 1, 2008 at 1:33 am
Woo, first comment! Hee.
May 1, 2008 at 2:33 am
I didn’t go, which at the time made me pout mightily, but after hearing (okay, reading) some of the stuff going on, I’m thinking I’m too … well, not quite conservative, but I don’t think I could get into the spirit of some of the more outrageous antics.
So I don’t know whether I would want to go to RT or not…
Then again, next year is in Orlando, soooooo very close!
I may show up just to meet a few of you guys

Aztec, some of the parties can get wild. I’m not a party person much myself. Wildness aside, even asthma-inducing hotel aside, I enjoyed myself and I will definitely RT again.
Not sure if I’ll go to Orlando, just because that’s a pretty trip, but I’ll definitely go again when it’s close to me.
May 1, 2008 at 2:48 am
Elaine – and how about Colorado
May 1, 2008 at 2:55 am
Would RT ever come to Asia?
May 1, 2008 at 4:00 am
Hi Shiloh! Pittsburgh is about a 3 hour drive, I had so wanted to go but I’m stuck on this bedrest!! So I missed my first opportunity to go.
I’d love it to come to Niagara Falls, either Buffalo side or Canada (they are right next to each other. I think it would be so beautiful to visit there. It is in April. I hope they do it some time!
May 1, 2008 at 4:34 am
How ’bout Singapore!!!
I’m going next year. Already got enough money for the plane fare, now I just need to sell a kidney to pay for RT!
I love reading about everything you did.
And Aztec, you don’t need to ‘be’ the party. Just find a seat and watch the show!

Hi Shi,
I have never gotten to go to RT…it always seems to be too far away. I would love to go…everyone seems to have a ton of fun and I can only imagine how excited I would be to actually get to meet some of my favorite authors.
I would love to see it somewhere closer to the west coast. Denver would be great as that is only four hours away from me or even some place like Las Vegas…that way I could actually make it happen as my husband’s folks live there. I will keep hoping.
Thanks for having such a great contest.
May 1, 2008 at 5:16 am
Hi Shiloh, I was hoping to try and drive to Pittsburgh this year, but it wasn’t in the cards this year. Maybe next year in Fla.
May 1, 2008 at 6:08 am
I didn’t get to go either and considering I don’t have a car or money for a plane ticket and hotel. It’s never going to happen for me living in washington state.
May 1, 2008 at 6:32 am
I’m sure RT has been in NY in the past, but I would like for it come back to my city.
May 1, 2008 at 8:23 am
I haven’t been to RT, but I would love to one day. I know it was here last year in Houston, but I was too busy at the time to go.
May 1, 2008 at 9:48 am
I’m going to try to get to next years in FL and make it a family trip and only go to a few events, but we’ll see. I think it would be nice to have it here in Indiana. I know Ft Wayne, where I’m at, is growing by leaps and bounds. We have a really nice center where the events could take place with hotels in walking distance. Kentucky or Tennessee would be good places as well.
May 1, 2008 at 12:37 pm
I’m waiting for the time RT comes to either Chicago ot DC.
May 1, 2008 at 12:57 pm
It would be great if RT was held in Minneapolis. Okay, great for me, but given our weather, maybe not so great for anyone else.
Gotta love it, we’re supposed to get snow tomorrow!
May 1, 2008 at 12:57 pm
Well, I would love to have gone ( big Steeler’s fan here!) just to see the city!
But hey- I live 1 hour from Orlando, so next year I should at least be able to make the signings or something!
May 1, 2008 at 2:45 pm
I have never been to RT. I would love for it to be in Tennessee or Kentucky one year.
May 1, 2008 at 2:48 pm
I’ve never went to RT but I wish they would have it further west than Houston or St. Louis.
May 1, 2008 at 3:02 pm
Azteclady, you should show up at the next one to meet ME, *grins*
May 1, 2008 at 3:19 pm
I’d want it somewhere warm. I think Hawaii would work for me. I’d soooo be there. LOL
May 1, 2008 at 4:54 pm
RT in The Bahamas? *naive hopeful grin* Ah well, one can dream. Dropping my name into the hat.
May 1, 2008 at 7:00 pm
Since I am a California gal, I would pick San Francisco.
May 1, 2008 at 9:12 pm
I would love to see it in the southwest part of the country or even Washington – I know completely different parts of the country but if it was Washington I know I could get my guy to take me
May 1, 2008 at 11:54 pm
Hi Shi! Never been to RT and even though it won’t be that far from me next year, about 6 hours, the kids are still in school and it’s too hard to leave town.
I’ve heard some horror stories about the hotel this year – sorry about your sickness.
May 2, 2008 at 1:54 am
Nashville would be fanastic or barring that Atlanta.
May 2, 2008 at 2:14 am
hawaii , vegas, fuji island. sounds like fun shioh
May 2, 2008 at 2:29 am
I don’t know if RT has ever been to Portland, Oregon – but that would get my vote!!
I would go – if it were close enough – when published I would probably go no matter what.
Goodies rock!
May 2, 2008 at 4:23 am
If only RT would be some where in Ohio/West Virginia area. The hubs will not let me travel “too far” out of state to attend one of these cons.
May 2, 2008 at 4:55 am
I agree with it being in either Ohio/Michigan then it would be closer for me to be able to attend!
May 2, 2008 at 11:53 am
I haven’t been to RT. It will never be where I live (NE Arkansas), but it may come closer (some of the neighoring states).
May 2, 2008 at 7:00 pm
West Coast, please! And maybe it’d be easier to get away for this once my kids are slightly older? (Don’t burst my bubble, those of you with slightly older kids!
) Thanks for the contest, Shi!

I went to the booksigning in St. Louis, but I’d like to be able to attend the whole week at least once.

May 3, 2008 at 3:29 am
Oops–sorry for the duplicate post–not sure what happened there
May 3, 2008 at 4:23 am
I would LOVE for RT to come to western Canada. I can’t see that happening though. The NW US would be nice though
Seattle?
May 6, 2008 at 3:59 am
Oh my goodness I heard so many RT stories and was so jealous! I was stuck in classes and work, and work and work. [Yes, 3 jobs at the time.] Now, I’m in finals
. One just went badly today, and I have another in 12 hours. Ack.
[or more just like 20 hr days of not sleeping.]
An RT goodie bag sounds fabulous – thanks for doing this, Shiloh! And for posting the reminder – I haven’t been able to check blogs b/c of 18 hr days of studying
May 6, 2008 at 8:39 am
I would love for RT to come to the South Carolina/Georgia area.
May 6, 2008 at 1:46 pm
I would like to see RT to come to MI area.

I would like to see RT in the Intermountain area. Come to Denver or Salt Lake City. Or it would totally be cool to see RT hit some smaller cities, Boise and Portland are both fun cities.
May 12, 2008 at 6:43 pm
I’ve never been to RT, it’s always to far away.
