Getting to know Izzy Archer (FREE Book!)

Good things come to those who wait? I’ve been writing for years—familiar story—without thinking about a next step! They say, write what you want to read. I write stories about love, lust, romance, relationships, and am now just realizing, hey, someone else might enjoy these suckers. Being a fan of Delilah’s racy romances, I’m over-joyed for Izzy’s debut in the Cowboys Behaving Badly Anthology. I hope you love Deacon in “Something to Talk About” as much as I do, and…

Getting to know Sukie Chapin (Contest)

UPDATE: The winner is…Alison Rush! *~*~* Hey all you cool cats and kittens, let’s talk about that time I accidentally kind of wrote Tiger King before Tiger King was a thing. Nope, you’re not hallucinating, and you definitely read that right. Years ago, after too many margaritas and on a little bit of a dare, Sanctuary was born. It went something like this: Friend: Ha! Wouldn’t it be wild to write about crazy cat ladies? Me: Hell yeah it would!…

Getting to know Kelly Violet (Contest)

UPDATE: The winner is…Colleen C! *~*~* Hiya, folks. I’m Kelly Violet, one of the authors in the Cowboys: A Boys Behaving Badly Anthology. It’s been a wild but fun ride for me as an author. At a young age, I fell in love with all things romance and that especially included the written word. From then on, I knew I wanted to write amazing romances filled with realistic characters and started filling my days with books and the brooding heroes we…

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. It’s different on stage for me… While I have been trained as a “triple threat,” meaning that I can sing, dance, and act, I really enjoy the…

Getting to Know Natasha Moore (Contest)

UPDATE: The winner is…Colleen C! *~*~* I’m Natasha Moore, and I’m happy to tell you all a little about myself. I’ve been a bookaholic since the moment I first learned to read, and in grade school, I was writing fanfic before it was even a thing. Life often got in the way of my getting published (this was waaaay before Amazon and indie publishing) but finally, in 2006, I signed my first contract, and I’ve been writing ever since. (Wow,…

Getting to Know Megan Ryder (Contest)

I’ve always loved books and telling stories. One of my earliest memories is my mom reading Charlotte’s Web to me before getting up in the morning, something we would do every day. I graduated quickly to other books including Anne of Green Gables and more, spending almost every day after school at the library while my mom worked. There was never enough romances in those books so I always rewrote the endings with more HEAs (happily-ever-afters), then I found the…

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…
