Way back, in 1995, after spending two weeks in Hawaii, my friend, Claudine insisted that I listen to the Calder Range by Janet Dailey on audiocassette. "You have to listen to this," she said. I absolutely loved it and since then, I have been hooked on romance. Prior to that, I was an avid reader, but only of Stephen King, Dean Koontz, and V.C. Andrews. If it was weird, my nose was in it. (I wouldn't think of reading that "romance junk.") Oh, how wrong I was. Now I'm trying to make up for all the years I did not read romance.
After reading all the Calder series, I started reading anything by Sandra Brown, and then, I read Nora Roberts. Need I say more? She is definitely one expressive writer. I now have quite a large collection to be read. I only hope I live long enough to be able to make a dent in it.
I have too many authors that I currently love to name, although Joan Hohl, Jamie Denton, Diana Palmer, Marilyn Lee, Lora Leigh, Ruby Storm, Lori Foster, Cheyenne McCray, and Janelle Denison come to mind.
I have many ideas for a book, but have not had the nerve to put them on paper. I am very handy with my hands, and I love crafts, people, books and travel. If I can't actually be there, my books take me there. I am a Freelance Copy Editor. I have met so many friends through volunteering at Romance Junkies and my commitment will always be with Romance Junkies. Thank you, Chaoscat and Todd, for such a quality site.
