I have always had stories in my head. Characters intrude into my thoughts and insist on showing me scenes from their lives. I discovered that when I ignore them, they start to yell louder; if I write their stories and they can live in readers' heads as well, they usually leave me alone. Only to be replaced by a new group of story-tellers. My head is usually a very crowded place, but I like it that way.

When a publisher closed, I got the rights back to some of my books. I put them up on Smashwords, with new IBC #s, and a newly revised version, with new covers:
March 2020--For the Love of His Life-MNRomance#1
April 2020--Only One Man Will Do--MN Romance#2
Her Last Resort--MN Romance#3
Secret Lover--Female Secret Agents #1
Undercover Lovers--Fem

I haven't read any. I prefer older characters in romance. I won't write YA because I always have sex scenes in my books. And the way I write isn't really conducive to people in their early twenties either. At least in my opinion. (less)

I don't think about any of my books/characters, and I take a break from them while they're taking a break from me. What usually happens is that I'll then have a dream with either a whole new group of characters and a new plotline, or with a continuation of something I had been working on. Nice when it works out like that.(less)
