Yes, another Dunes & Dreamer is celebrating a birthday in August. Today, it’s the lovely and talented Maggie Van Well.

Happy Birthday to the Dunes & Dreams RWA President, Gina Ardito! Over the past 18 months, she’s worked tirelessly for the good of our chapter. From behind the scenes hitting the pavement and the online resources to get our name out there – to being the face of the group at library talks, booksignings [...]

She’s our very own Goddess on the Mountain. The one, the only, the gracious, the sassy, the sunny Bertrice Small celebrates her birthday today.

Last week our members were treated to tax presentation that was full of surprises! First, you might think giving a tax specialist the floor at a meeting of romance writers might either be odd or perhaps a little boring – let me assure you, this meeting was anything but. Patrick McDonald of Physical Solutions, Inc. [...]

Her humor, willingness to get involved, and personality make her a special asset to our chapter. Happy birthday, Trisha! May this be [...]
