February 7 optional question - What do you love about
the genre you write in most often?
Most of my life, I’ve been writing romance. Even my stories that
start out as action adventure tend to veer into romance. The thing I love about
romance is that there’s always a happy-ever-after scenario and if not, there’s
at least a happy-for-now ending. I enjoy bringing joy and happiness to my
characters and that in a nutshell is why I continue to write tales about love.
On the IWSG front, the next big thing is the anthology that’s due
for release on May 1, 2018.
Blurb: Can a dead child’s
cross-stitch pendant find a missing nun? Is revenge possible in just 48
minutes? Can a killer be stopped before the rescuers are engulfed by a city
ablaze? Who killed what the tide brought in? Can a soliloquizing gumshoe stay
out of jail?
Exploring the facets of time, eleven authors delve into mysteries
and crimes that linger in both dark corners and plain sight. Featuring the
talents of Gwen Gardner, Rebecca M. Douglass, Tara Tyler, S. R. Betler, C.D.
Gallant-King, Jemi Fraser, J. R. Ferguson, Yolanda Renée, C. Lee McKenzie,
Christine Clemetson, and Mary Aalgaard.
Hand-picked by a panel of agents and authors, these eleven tales
will take you on a thrilling ride into jeopardy and secrecy. Trail along, find
the clues, and stay out of danger. Time is wasting…

I definitely prefer stories with a happy ending!
ReplyDeleteAll of my fiction stories have romance to them. We are just suckers for it I suppose.
ReplyDeleteYay! Who doesn't love romance.
DeleteI read all kinds of genres besides romance and I still like the protagonist to get some kind of happy ending. HEA is what I love about romance also.
ReplyDeleteSusan, yes, that makes the book worth it for me.
DeleteThere's always a need for a good romance, so I'd say you chose well.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yes, we all need good love stories.
DeleteYA and romance are my go-to genres to read and write, however I also like historical fiction and women's fiction.
ReplyDeleteI also enjoy women's fiction, but don't read a lot of historical these days.
DeleteIt's nice to be able to bring happiness to people through words.
ReplyDeleteSo true!
DeleteI prefer happy endings over sad ones.
ReplyDeleteI grew up reading tons of Mills & Boons... and Danielle Steele! Nothing wrong with HEA!
