Celebrate! Our Word Wenches blog is NINE years old this week!
In blog years, that’s … well, since May 22, 2006, we’ve written nearly 1500 blogs, if you do a little math (and we prefer to do only a little math). Consider us wise and Wenchly after all those years and blogs, and very pleased to still be blogging strong. We’re especially pleased and very grateful that you, our blog readers and friends, have been so loyal and such fun over the years! 
We’re celebrating with virtual cake and candles, balloons and prezzies – in the form of a great giveaway contest that you can all enter (see details below)! We’re also celebrating with a look back at our very first books – the book that started it all for each of us, taking us by different paths to the Land of Word Wenches, where we indulged our mutual love of history and historical fiction—and found that one of the secrets to a long-lived blog is friendship (along with the ability to go with the flow and be real chill about details, and we’re all pretty good at that)!
Here’s a look at the first books we ever wrote – Part One.
Look for Part Two of our Anniversary Celebration on Friday!
Patricia Rice
The book that set me on the path to Wenchland was originally called Love’s First Surrender, published by Kensington in 1984. I had just graduated with an accounting degree, was living in a small town that wasn’t fond of the idea of female accountants, and for the first time since I was fourteen, I wasn’t working or going to school or both. I had time to watch my toddler race around the driveway on his Big Wheel, but I was bored out of my skull. I like working. I couldn’t afford to buy books, so I wrote my own. I wrote several, actually, but Surrender is the one I deliberately tried to write to fit the sexy historical romance market of the time. I’d never had a writing class, didn’t know RWA existed, had no notion of how to get published except from Writer’s Digest. But I figured I had to do something to make money if I couldn’t find a job, so I dedicated toddler nap times to writing a sexy historical in long hand in a Walmart notebook. Once I had a complete draft, I bought a used Underwood typewriter and typed it all up. Those were the days of carbon copies, white-out, and boxing 500 pages to ship via snail mail with SASEs inside. I quickly learned to just send the first fifty pages!
And lo and behold, I got The Call the same week I was hired by two Baptist deacons as an accountant. Sometimes, we get what we wish for—and it only makes life more complicated!
Cara Elliott/Andrea Pickens
My journey to becoming a Wench needed a few fortuitous twists in the road to put me on the right path. While I have always been a voracious reader, I didn’t have a clue that romance novels existed until after I started working in New York City. Yes, I had read Austen . . . but it wasn’t until one afternoon walking along Madison Avenue, when I stumbled upon a street vendor with a small table of used books, including a number of Georgette Heyer paperbacks, that I discovered a whole new world! I still remember the specific title—it was The Toll House—and I decided to plop down my quarter and buy it. It was love at first read, and sent me to the library, where I raced through all of the Grand Dame’s canon. Now hooked on Regency romances, I started to dig around in bookstores for more of the genre—and discovered the Signet Regency line.
Needless to say, I was now in Seventh Heaven. Having loved storytelling ever since I was a child (my mother saved a number of lavishly illustrated cowboy “books” that I wrote when I was five) I suppose it was only natural that I soon got the urge to try my hand at a Regency story. One weekend, I got out my pencil and notebook and started to scribble . . .
The road rose up to greet me with few more lucky turns. An agent who was the friend of a friend agreed to meet with me to hear a pitch on a contemporary thriller idea I had. He listened patiently, making polite noises, and when we rose to shake hands, I don’t know what made me add, “Oh, and I know you won’t be at all interested in this, but I also have a finished Regency romance.” At that, his eyes lit up. He said one of his good friends was the head of the Signet line, and asked if I would send it to him. Three days later he called to tell me he had sold The Defiant Governess . . . and, well, here I am! (What is incredibly fun for me is to see it have new life—having gotten the rights back, I’ve released it as an e-book (written as Andrea Pickens) and the fact that readers still seem to enjoy the story is very heartening.)
Nicola Cornick 
Nicola is away this week, but we know she would want to join the party! So we want to mention that Nicola’s first book was True Colours, published by Mills & Boon in 1998. You can find out more about it on Nicola’s website. When she returns, perhaps she’ll find a moment to tell us more about her first book and her road to Wenches!
Susan King
My first novel was born of my dissertation in medieval art and a pregnancy complication that put me on bedrest for months, bored out of my mind, on hiatus from graduate studies, and reading anything I could get my hands on. A friend brought me an assortment of used paperback historical romances, a genre I hadn’t read before. Among that stack of books was a tattered copy of Woodiwiss’ The Wolf and the Dove. It was medieval, it was lush, romantic, fresh and exciting – and a needed change from hefty history tomes. I began reading widely (and sort of rabidly) along the timeline of historical romance, absorbing everything. I had always loved fiction—and secretly wanted to write stories, but didn’t think it practical (so I was studying, uh, art). The baby showed up, I returned to grad school, more babies showed up, and more bedrest and more reading. By the time I had three cute little guys running around and a dissertation nearly finished, I wanted to give fiction one good try before moving on.
With what little time I had, I flipped my dissertation—medieval England and manuscript illumination and a fascination with Robin Hood tales—tossed it in the story soup and stirred. The result was The Black Thorne’s Rose. Somehow I entered a contest, somehow I won, and met an agent who encouraged me to finish the book. Within a month of submitting the manuscript, I had a two-book contract with Penguin. That first book was uniquely exciting and fun to write, and by following that writing road, I’ve found many friends, including the Wenches. Nine years ago, a few of us thought a blog would be fun – and here we are!

Congratulations. 🙂 Other great blogs have come and gone, but this one just keeps on going (and gets better!).
Count me in as someone who wasn’t exactly aware of romance novels (beyond the derogatory ‘Mills and Boon – ugh!’ comments, which still make me furious). It took me a few years after graduating with a literature degree to discover that I didn’t just have to love the romance aspect of a general fiction book, and that there were whole books about just that!
Ugh, maths. I was in the advanced maths class at high school, and one day realised I hated it, and sort of… gave up… As long as I can do basic addition and subtraction, my life is just fine.

Holy Bookbinder, Ladies!

So, I want to wish you a happy 9th birthday as well as thank you for providing me with wonderful reading, both in the blog and in your books.

Thrilled to be a part of your blog. Have enjoyed reading the Word Wenches for years. I probably have 90% of all of your books in paperback. Adding to my Kindle as you make them available. Thanks.

I too wasn’t all that aware of romances – though I can admit that I was a bit judgy despite not knowing that much. But several years ago I wanted to expand my reading, went to the bookstore and bought what must have been about 10 romances. Some of those were written by Wenches and I’ve been hooked on romances ever since.
So, happy anniversary to you all!

Dear Wenches: Over all these many years, you’ve made me laugh, educated me, and entertained me. I have enjoyed this journey every step of the way. Onward Ho to many more years ahead. My only request? Don’t stop blogging or writing, please. My one wish? Hope I get to meet all of you at least once at one of the RWA confs.

Wish I had more hours in a day to spend with my favorite books and authors. Seems as I age my hours get shorter and shorter. I have enjoyed this blog for years. I will also always miss Edith Layton, one of my very favorite wenches, but I am able to reread the wonderful words of each of her. I was happy that you continued the blog as the goddess blog ended and I was a fan of it also. Keep up the good work here, it gives us a place to find information of current work easily and quickly.

I love historical romance, especially those from the Regency era and I’ve been reading them since sometime during the ’80’s. I was introduced to Regency stories by Barbara Cartland then soon found Mary Jo Putney and Mary Balogh. I remember going straight to the romance section in the library and searching the shelves for their books. I then learned to look on the spine for the Signet and Zebra symbols so I would have an easier time of finding enjoyable books. I’ve been a fan of most of the word wenches for many years and would love to win one or more of the books. Regency romance is still my number one pick.

I too say Happy Anniversary and happy writing for many, many more years to come. Books and blog entries which make me think and do research.
As a long time reader of romances it is truly fascinating to find out more about the times, events, locations featured in books and the writerly process.
My TBR pile keeps growing, faster than I can read. Maybe I should just devote an entire month to reading 2 to 3 books a day while restraining myself from acquiring any more. HA! Who can resist a Wenchly recommendation. Grin.
I too say Happy Anniversary and happy writing for many, many more years to come. Books and blog entries which make me think and do research.

I think I’ve been here since the beginning! 2006 was just about when I was getting my writing self together (ha!), and I was anxious to see what “real” writers had to say. You all have never disappointed. I get the posts in my e-mail and always feel a little smarter. Many congratulations, and happy writing years ahead for each of you!

As a scientist my brain activity was dominated by the left hemisphere. Then one day I stumbled across some work by William Morris in a second hand book shop. It had been misplaced in the science section and as an admirer of Morris’s stained glass and his work in the pre-Raphaelite movement, I thought it might have something to do with this.
I started browsing ‘The Well at the World’s End’ and rapidly became engrossed in the romantic fantasy which greatly stimulated my right brain. I later went on to read most of Morris’s fiction and then started looking for modern ‘romantic’ authors.
A long and enthralling search, shortened by many recommendations from Janga in particular, eventually led to the wenches where I admired Mary Jo Putney’s novels among others. I now find that a little romantic fiction from almost any genre provides the perfect counter balance to my scientific studies, and may well be instrumental in keeping me sane. LOL
Great work Wenches!
*grabs a flagon of champagne from passing tray*
Here’s drinking to more great novels from the Wench Masters …. er or should that be Mistresses!

Here’s to (AT LEAST!!) another nine years, Wench Geniuses. I’m fairly new to this blog, but so amazed and glad that I did find you. Congratulations.
Having read a slew of Gothic Romances (really cheap…babysitting money, you know…it was the 60’s) when I was in junior high school, I eventually reached a point I’d exhausted the desire to read any more. Then I ( I thought) grew up, discovered ‘LiITERATURE’ and disdained my earlier obsession with those kind of books, and decided I only had time for serious books. Attempted an English Major at Univ., but continued to read anything BUT ‘those bodice rippers’ that showed up on the stands.
HOWEVER…..Something happened to me about 8 years ago. A major motor vehicle accident. I came home from the rehab hospital with nothing to do but go to physical therapy and learning to do the basics again. My Hero hubby, knowing my love of Jane Austen started buying me Austen biography and related history books, an annotated P&P. Eventually, in a long boring round about way….I discovered Regency Romance. And I haven’t looked back. Somehow, I can no longer tolerate the ‘serious literature’ genre I had made a steady depressing diet of for the last 30+ years.
In no way do I mean to say that any of the authors from the Wenches I’ve read so far and come to love, do not write incredibly intelligent books. I’m really embarrassed to admit what I used to think about these books. i am in awe of the research, the history, the serious issues addressed, the deep ideas I’ve read of in some of your works. And the romance, oh my goodness. I just finished Mary Jo’s ‘The Rake.’ I don’t get to do this too often, but I related the entire story to my husband on a drive to visit our son. You know, captive audience. He noticed some similarities to another book I’d related to him (and forced him to read,) Georgette Heyer’s ‘Fredrica.’ Oh how I love Mary Jo’s book.
Please keep up the wonderful work you are all doing, LOVE this amazing blog. Bless you all.

Congratulations, and Happy 9th to you all! I have to be honest, but I haven’t read any books yet, but I want to for sure. Life has been passing me by and I have been going through a lot of depression and all, so i think I need a lift and reading will surely get me through “the slump of depression”. Hey, maybe I will use that title for one of my future books on depression. Haha Well, I just wanted to fess up and explain things. “Honesty is the best policy” you know. 😀
BTW, do any of you famous authors know anyone that writes about de-cluttering? I have two authors I have had on my buddy list for a long time now. Sandra Felton and Marsha Sims. We chat now and then on private message. I need all the people I can get to help me de-clutter. LOL “Clutter” is one main part of my “depression slump”. “Procrastination” is another one of my faults. Oh well, I just thought I would ask. I need someone to contact ME as often as they can, because i am almost 60 and I do tend to forget at times. “Time management” is another fault of mine. Oh GEEZ, I best stop typing, before you know ALL my faults. Haha Heck, I could write a book/books on them. Maybe I should think of doing that. LOL Well, you will all know that if I am not READING, I might just be writing. Haha Ta Ta and toodles everyone! 🙂

I wish I had found this blog sooner. I’m not much of a blog reader, I don’t seem to ever find the time to follow one, but this one is crazy interesting.
Historical romance is my most favorite genre, so thank you for this blog and for the wonderful books you all write.
