As a romance author, I've finally found a way to keep the voices from driving me insane...I put them in my stories. Now when the people in my head argue and wake me up, I'm not worried because I know they are characters from my current works-in-progress...and if not, they soon will be!
Did you check out the castle on my home page??? Loughmoe Castle belonged to my Purcell ancestors in County Tipperary, Ireland. How cool is that? I live in a cottage in the wilds of North Jersey, but my ancestors lived in a castle! And that Dear Reader is how the spark of an idea will take hold and blossom into a story. I used Loughmoe Castle in my Medieval trilogy, changing the name to Loughmae Keep.
While you're here, check out the latest news, book excerpts, and my new genealogy page. I use family names in most, if not all, of my stories and draw character traits from ancestors and dearly loved relatives who have passed through the veil.
