Words--they're magical--and I have been enchanted by them my whole life! I have been a New York City publishing executive and editor, and have written several books that I hope you will discover! Most recently was the executive director and creative director for a nonprofit literary center based in Columbus, Ohio, which is now where I live.
I love dogs--especially pugs and Boston Terriers; pro football, rock and roll--and spending time with family and friends. I try not to feel too guilty when all I want to do is sit down and read!

I cherish the wonders of the written word and hope you share this feeling! ...more

Three couples immediately come to mind: Nick and Nora Charles--charming, smart, sophisticated--and devoted to their dog. They share a great sense of humor and irreverence.
Then there's Lord Peter Wimsey and Harriet Vane of the Dorothy Sayers mysteries. A wonderful kind of romance because he's smitten and she's rather standoffish in that British style until they slowly, carefully, come to admit their affection for each other.
And, of course, there's Heathcliff and Cathy--the unrequited couple of "Wuthering Heights"--so romantic and beautiful, and tragic.

I think I would be remiss a bit if I also did not say that one of my favorite fictional couples--when they finally get together!--is Jack Carmichael and Vivienne Bastain of "Her Mother's Daughter"--my brand new novel.

Thank you again for a terrific question.

Walking away, literally and figuratively, for a while and just thinking about other things often helps.(less)
