Lyn: What does being a RITA finalist mean to you?

Tamera: "I'm honored to be a RITA finalist this year for The Inheritance (Thomas Nelson, Women of Faith Fiction), and to be counted among the other writers listed in your post below, Lyn. I've read almost every book in our category and these ladies are exceptionally talented! They push me to try harder and to give my very best, while they also teach me a ton.

Being a finalist in the RITAs is exciting, and the award ceremony at the conference is something special too. Romance Writers of America really goes all out to make the evening a memorable experience. Getting dressed up, sitting with your fellow nominees, cheering each other on, having that girl time with other writers you respect and admire...well, it's a kick, to say the least, and a real blessing. One that, unfortunately (sad face), I won't be able to take part in this year, but I'll be cheering everyone on from Nashville." Tamera Alexander
