From Publishers Weekly contributing editor and PW Beyond Her Book blogger Barbara Vey:
Dear Friends in Publishing,
 
Over the past 6 1/2 years, I have listened carefully to what you've had 
to say. The one thing I heard over and over again was how romance never 
received any respect.  Many of you were thrilled when I started writing 
my blog because it seemed to make your genre more credible in PW's eyes.
 
Well, I finally have managed to get a PW Romance Webcast off the ground.
  In the past, PW has done every other genre and even webcasts on Faith 
and Yarn that were highly successful. 
 
The time has come for everyone to help support the romance genre.  I 
really need everybody to sign up for the webcast (Sept. 17th Noon EST). 
 Signing up does not obligate you to listen to the webcast.  You can 
either listen live or later on iTunes if you'd like.  It is absolutely 
free and listeners have a chance to win giveaways (because Romance is 
best at that!).
 
As you all know, everything is a numbers game, so we need the numbers. 
Here's the link:  http://bit.ly/13M3XeT
 
Please help me show everyone why romance is number one by registering 
for webcast and feel free to forward this email.  It's kind of like an 
election.  Every single registration counts.
 
Thanks so much for your support over the years and please let me know if you have any questions.
 
Barbara
