Good morning MisterV!! I write historical fiction/romance (the one I am currently shopping around is an historical romantic suspense) and various non-fiction. My main current WIP is a non fiction I am ghostwriting on starting an internet company, and I have 2 fiction WIPs (that haven't gotten much attention lately) - one is a contemporary love story, the other is another historical romance.
Wow, you must have a hard time finding time to breath. Do you have anything on a store shelf yet? I'd love to buy a book and say, "hey we know her." Mrs. V loves the romance novels, especially historical. |

Young adult, urban fantasy. Witches, a particularly nasty form of the Second Sight, and a whole lot of manipulation.  Sounds tragic Lege. I'd love to hear more about what urban fantacy is like.  |

I'm in 3 Chicken Soup for the Soul books, but no novels yet - Chicken Soup for the Chocolate Lover's Soul just came out (I'm on page 76  ), Chicken Soup for the Dieter's Soul (page 90 something ), and then the same story that is in that book is in their Healthy Living Series. |

The novel I'm shopping around is a traditional fantasy. The ones I'm working on are urban fantasy, set in modern day Denver. I tried writing a mystery, and I still want to go back and finish it, but I have to do a ton of research first to get the details right.
I totally know how it feels to feel like researching. Have you considered writing the book without the research and then sending a few bucks to some colloege kid who likes to do research on the weekends. That's what Mrs. V. says I should do. Just a thought, but most of the books I read use research assisting in some form or another. |
