Welcome to my website! Here you can get to know me and my books. The latest is number seven in the REAL VAMPIRES series, REAL VAMPIRES DON'T WEAR SIZE SIX. Sad to say, neither do I. Seems like the battle of the bulge is universal, at least among the people I know. The skinny people that I run into-- my brother is one--are rare and blessed. I still can't figure out how he does it. When I write my character Glory St. Clair, I admit I'm channeling some of my own frustrations as I compare my imperfections with the beautiful people I see in the media or that I read about. That's why I created a character who has, well, flaws.

So my photos show you how I live and where I go. I'm not a young phenom or a skinny minnie. What I am is a writer who hopes to entertain you and keep you hooked on Glory's adventures. She also has quite a love life. So even though her covers are cartoonish, these aren't books for kids. I enjoy writing the steamy stuff and hope that's what my readers expect when they buy my books.

So settle back and dive into the world of REAL VAMPIRES. I have a newsletter that will keep you up to date on my world and give you a chance for special sneak peeks at coming books. It will also have contests with prizes available only for newsletter subscribers. I hope you will sign up. Excerpts for all the books in the series are here as well as articles for aspiring authors in my Perils of Publishing section. These were originally written for my local Romance Writers of America chapter and I pretty much spill the beans on what it's like to be a published author. Trust me, this isn't a job for sissies.

For fans of the series, I have two sites on Facebook and a twitter feed. There's also a great fansite set up by superfan, Danielle Garrett. Check it out. The links are here for easy access. Hope you enjoy and come again. We'll try to keep things hopping.
