I don't think there's anything as magical as reading a
wonderful book. Since I read my very first, I was utterly
transported to a world that made me want to pack my bags and
move right into it. I was twelve. Maybe thirteen. And I
finally knew what I wanted to be.
A writer.
But a writer's life isn't as romantic as it sounds. Life
always gets in the way of writers. You either live your own,
or you sit down and create one for someone. Someone more
wonderful, more interesting, more courageous. And because I
met a wonderful man, my life came first. I married him. And
we have two wonderful kids, whom we adore. And writing
seemed to be just a little moment living in a big dream. I
wrote, but I wrote little, and I needed more.
It wasn't until the start of 2005 when my life had settled
around me, and with that stillness came a gnawing
restlessness. I really needed to write, really write, or I'd
be miserable.
So I started, spending a few hours a day on the computer,
and later entire nights. I heard of Ellora's Cave, an erotic
romance publisher, and their call for submissions for their
hotter Exotika line. Ahh! Something sexy, I thought, and
mulled through that a bit further: Something scandalizing.
Shocking. Out of this world caliente.
Awesome!
And so began a career writing erotic romance, which took off
quickly and unexpectedly. First with the epublishers, and
later helping me find my fabulous agent Roberta Brown. She
signed me up with my first full single title, The
Satin Sash, which NAL/ Penguin bought on proposal in
April 2008.
Am I a writer now? I wondered that day.
Nah! I was a writer before that, but perhaps at last I start
to feel like one.
I live in Texas with my family, two very big dogs, and
dozens of wandering deer who keep eating the flowers.
Sometimes I write all day, and sometimes the words elude me,
little devils. But the thing is, at last I write. Or perhaps
I spin, weaving tales of love and woe and raw, unbridled
passion.
