Writers I love: 

 

Just because: 

The Official Somewhere in Time Website - www.somewhereintime.tv/intro1.htm 

Somewhere in Time is the beautifully romantic 1980 time travel movie starring Jane Seymour and Christopher Reeve. I thought about the painful moment of separation between the two lovers while I was writing Follow Me. This site is dedicated to and maintained by devoted fans of the movie 

Antique and Vintage Dress Gallery http://www.antiquedress.com/gallery.htm 

This site is so cool!!!! If you love romance and history and beautiful clothes, check out this super fun, amazing online store and gallery. Depending on your budget the prices run from affordable to I wish, but oh, one can dream. 

I volunteer as a costumed guide at my local historic house museum. I get to wear great clothes, walk around an eighteenth century house, and talk about history and romance to a captive audience. What could be more fun? 

 

Giving back: 

I am always aware of how fortunate I am to be able to do what I want with my life. I’m thankful every day for family and friends, and for the opportunity to write. I want to increase awareness of early detection and prevention of melanoma, one of the fastest growing cancers in the US. In honor of my beautiful, amazing friend Lisa, the bravest, strongest, coolest person I have ever known. I wish I could do so much more than this.
