Sara Marks is a modern woman with classic problems, just like the women she writes. Always a rabid reader, Sara has a complicated history with romance books. The only solution was to write the books she wished for as a teen and younger adult.

Sara lives in Massachusetts with her dog Cedric. When not writing she still reads voraciously, knits (often while reading), and spends her adult money on washi tape, planners, and stickers. You can find her at http://saramarks.net to see all her romance books and download Modern Persuasion (book one in the 21st Century Austen series) for free.

George R.R. Martin
“... a mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge.”
George R.R. Martin, A Game of Thrones

Seth Grahame-Smith
“There are but two types of men who desire war: those who haven’t the slightest intention of fighting it themselves, and those who haven’t the slightest idea what it is. … Any man who has seen the face of death knows better than to seek him out a second time.”
Seth Grahame-Smith, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

Seth Grahame-Smith
“So long as this country is cursed with slavery, so too will it be cursed with vampires.”
Seth Grahame-Smith, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

Jane Smiley
“The body, the mind, and the spirit don't form a pyramid, they form a circle. Each of them runs into the other two. The body isn't below the mind and the spirit; from the point of view it's between them. if you reside too much in the mind, then you get too abstract and cut off from the world. You long for the spiritual life, but you can't get to it, and you fall into despair. The exercise of the senses frees you from abstraction and opens the way to transcendence.”
Jane Smiley, Moo

G.K. Chesterton
“The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all.”
G.K. Chesterton
