Some of you have seen the news elsewhere, but it did seem there should be an official announcement. How To Bake A Perfect Life won the RITA from Romance Writers of America last week, a third win in its category.
That means, my friends, that I was inducted into the Romance Writers Hall of Fame. It was one great night, let me tell you. Christopher Robin was there, and my best writing buddy Christie Ridgway, and my long-time editor Shauna Summers, who happens to be a great friend now, too. We share a love of food and books and music, and dinners with her are always the highlight of my conference.
And this was the highlight of this conference.

Many congratulations on both Rita and Hall of Fame, Barbara. It was a truly wonderful book and you are an inspirational writer. Glad you were there and had such a wonderful time.
A great big congratulations to you! As one who cannot write beyond “It was a dark and stormy night…” I am muy impressed!
Congrats on the RITA and on the Hall of Fame. How to Bake a Perfect Life was absolutely beautiful. I loved that book!
YAY! Congratulations!!
Congratulations — you definitely deserve it!
What an amazing night that must have been. Certainly well deserved!
Congratulations, Barbara! Especially on the Hall of Fame! Your books are certainly worthy of the RITAS.
KUDOS!!!!
