L.L. Ash is a Washington-born writer who has traveled and lived across the western coast of the US. She lives in Utah with her husband and 3 kids, all of which are a handful!

Ash has been writing fiction since she was 11 years old, and finished her first full-length romance novella at 12. While her writing has improved since then, her love for literature has not changed. Oftentimes you can find Ash reading an indie romance or enjoying a historical fiction. She has been an artist for decades but found her true love and passion in romances.

But Ash is not content to write a romance with untried characters or predictable ‘happily ever afters’. Ash strives to create honest stories revolving around struggling heroins and bruised heroes, both tryin

There's two things that I tell aspiring writers and authors.

First, and mainly, write for the love of writing!!!
You'll never last through the dredges of being an author if you don't absolutely love writing and creating stories, characters, universes or cultures. Live and breathe it.

Second, get a thick skin.
People will criticize your work. So, get good at taking criticism. It will make your work better and make you a better writer. Criticism is good and helpful, just don't let it bog you down.
This is where rule number 1 comes into play again. No matter what anyone says, you are the artist, and the story is yours. Take the criticism and weight it, and make an informed decision regarding your story.

And here's a little bonus! You will be rejected over and over and over again by publishers and agents. It happens in every successful writer's career. Take the criticism (if there is any) and just keep getting better. Don't let the rejection get to you. Eventually someone will see the brilliance of your work and will fall in love with it. Would you expect love to be anything less than hard?(less)

I can be going about my regular day when all of a sudden I think, 'hey, this would make an awesome story!'
So I take a particular scene or an idea for a love interest and write the story around it.(less)

"Was this supposed to funny? Cause I didn't laugh.

Going in, I thought Yesteryear would be a slam dunk for me. But now I've found myself in the unexpected position of being just about the only one who didn't like it.

Quotes by L.L. Ash  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“But it really felt like he wanted me just as much as I wanted him, and something as stupid as age shouldn’t be the deciding factor in whether two people should explore something.”
L.L. Ash, Him

“You can’t see the way that man looks at you? Like you’re the little baby Jesus himself. He worships you just with his eyes, honey. Ain’t getting any clearer than that.”
L.L. Ash, Him

“Other men's crosses are not my crosses.”
John Donne

“I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity.”
Edgar Allan Poe

“Never close your lips to those whom you have already opened your heart.”
Charles Dickens

“Oh no. Don't smile. You'll kill me. I stop breathing when you smile.”
Tessa Dare, A Lady of Persuasion

“These violent delights have violent ends
And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
Which as they kiss consume. The sweetest honey
Is loathsome in his own deliciousness
And in the taste confounds the appetite.
Therefore love moderately; long love doth so;
Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.”
William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet
