The thousands of bodice-rippers, trashy novels, and love stories I've read over the last couple of decades qualify me to be your Romantic Fiction go-to gal. I race through three to six paperbacks in a week, sometimes even resorting to reading books three and four times if my local library is low on romance stock. Stay tuned: I'd like to share some of my knowledge of the genre with you.

I'm a freelance writer from Kalamazoo, Michigan. No degree yet, but I've exhausted all of the creative writing classes that my community college had to offer. They told me not to come back until I was prepared to take something math-related. Ugh. To pay the bills, I write about everything under the sun as a pen-for-hire on Guru.com. Some of my past projects have included content for <a href="http://www.boutiquekittens.com">Boutique Kittens</a>, <a href="http://www.bellaregalo.com/personal-wedding-tip.html">Bella Regalo</a>, and fun blogs about cute and cuddly space critters called <a href="http://www.starby.com">Starbies</a> and <a href="http://www.celebritydietbuzz.com">celebrity diets</a>. I've also written for <a href="http://www.aagolfmag.com/index.php">Asian American Golf Magazine</a> and <a href="http://www.homeandoutdoor.com/">Southern California Home and Outdoor</a>.

When I'm not reading voraciously and writing vociferously, I'm spending time with my darlin' husband, my two beautiful kids, my not-so-beautiful pitt bull Tye, and my unimaginatively-named tabby cat Tiger. I also enjoy cooking up new recipes that take less than 30 minutes and finding creative ways to get out of doing dishes.
