Getting to Know January George (Contest)

UPDATE: The winner is…ButtonsMom2003! *~*~* In one of my favorite video’s from when I was a kid, I was about five or six and I’m calmly sitting on the floor in a velvet dress, wearing one silver lame elbow-length glove and some very poorly applied burgundy lipstick, telling a very detailed story about an old lady, a chicken, and a fox. My three-year-old brother appears behind me and attempts to saw my head off with a piece of toy train…

Getting to Know Reina Torres (Contest)

UPDATE: The winner is…Mary McCoy! *~*~* If you ever meet me in person, know that if/when I get started talking, it’s difficult for me to stop. Not because I’m normally gregarious or outgoing, but the opposite. I’m also someone who likes to connect with others but knows that I’m pretty inept about it.

Getting to know Jamie K. Schmidt (FREE Book)

Even though I had been writing steadily throughout my life, my writing career didn’t kick in until I was in my forties. I started writing Star Trek fan fiction when I was a teenager.  I loved the adventure and the personalities. My goal was to be a published author someday. In college, I became involved with role-playing games and my fiction veered towards Shadowrun, Cyberpunk, and Dungeons and Dragons.  But I had grown up reading Harlequin romances and my dream…

Ava Cuvay: That’s My Theory

Ava Cuvay: That’s My Theory

Why do we read Romance? I’m currently writing, Tin Toy, the second book in the Silver Cyborg Series, about a cybernetic librarian who looks like a pin-up model, kisses like an angel, and fights like a trained assassin. I thought it would be fun to make her a huge fan of Romance, and associate common Romance tropes with various situations she’s in. Like May-December romances, secret baby, and bad boy billionaire, just to name a few. And, as is common…

Michal Scott: “Put It in a Book” from STRANDED (Contest)

Michal Scott: “Put It in a Book” from STRANDED (Contest)

UPDATE: The winner is Fedora! *~*~* My writing journey resembles a spiral that took me from writing for newspapers through seminary and ministry to writing romance in retirement. I have a journalism background and worked as a stringer for awhile. Writing fiction during that time had always been a way to make the world come round right after a day of covering stories when everything in the world was all wrong. When I became involved in the church, writing remained…
