My Genesis Thank You!

Last night at the ACFW Conference in St. Louis, I won the Contemporary Romance category of the Genesis Contest. I wasn't able to be there, but I wanted to thank everyone involved - so here is my humble attempt at VBlogging.
I never ever expected to win because I had two extremely talented co-finalists - Jessica and Pepper. Thank you to you both for sharing this night with me.

ETA - I have no idea what those knocking noises are!
Have no idea why that horrid picture shows up 1st either.

    Hey Mary!
    It worked. Thanks for the mention as well. All this crazy technology really made it seem like we were all together in a way.

    I hope this win is a stepping stone to published Author for you. Congratulations again!

    Having you share the fun last night was just perfect. For me the only thing missing was the chance to say thank you. Now I could do it from home - though I was tempted to don some sparkly clothes.

    Hi Katie,
    Thanks for stopping by. Yesterday when I was wracking my brain trying to think of a way to say thanks, I thought of your Vlogs and decided to give it a whirl.
