Background
Information
My profession is one of my absolute favorite things about my life, because it’s like belonging to an exclusive club: The Pedantically Insane Club for the Compulsively Verbose, if you will. This club’s membership stretches back to the dawn of time and includes such pillars of the community as Charlie Dickens, Willy Shakespeare, Dorothy Parker, Hunter S. Thompson, and Virginia Wolfe.
By pillars of the community, of course what I really mean is brilliant lunatics who made it socially acceptable to be an eccentric misanthrope with permanently ink-stained fingers, a complete lack of tact, and a dodgy sense of fashion.
I consider myself a romance writer, but my pieces tend to be very different from each other. “My Apple Tree” is very dark at times, but it is more of a traditional romance, whereas The Truth Seekers is an historical romance and The Irrepressibles is a paranormal mystery with romantic and comedic elements. No matter what, my books do focus on relationships between people, and romance is a large part of that.
