Sometimes a woman, even a romance writer living in one of the world’s most exciting cities, can get stuck in a bit of a rut. In search of a new adventure, I entered THE ULTIMATE THAILAND EXPLORERS Contest with fellow romance novelist Liz Maverick. Imagine our surprise when what started out as a little promo lark hit pay dirt.
Yes, good people, we’ve made the semi-finals!
To go from finalist to winners, we need your vote, and the other four competing teams in our chosen destination of PATTAYA are some pretty tough competition. Our competitors’ occupations include corporate trainer, physical therapist, architect, wellness manager, advertising exec, and a coupla singers/song writers.

And our main heat is packing a seriously cute baby!
That said, Liz and I are no slackers. We stand proud of our genre and yes, proud of the twenty-four books we’ve collectively written. If we get to go to Thailand, we mean to use the opportunity to put a positive public–dare we say worldwide–spin on romance.
Our video, Liz & Hope, is parked under the PATTAYA section at www.ultimatethailandexplorers.com. The poll closes November 11th. Once you register, you can vote up to every 24 hours–I’m just sayin’.
Help us show not only Thailand but the world that romance writers rock!
I voted for you! Good luck! And I’ll be sure to visit again and cast more votes:)
Thanks so much, Sarah. You’re the best!
We want an update!
Well, Dingo, at latest count, Liz and I had a respectable 700 + votes but our ranking remains fifth–out of five teams. We’re having fun, tho!
