At age ten, Alicia Dean wrote her first ever romance (featuring a hero who looked just like Elvis Presley and who shared the name of Elvis’ character in the movie, Tickle Me), and she still has the tattered, pencil-written copy. Alicia is from Moore, Oklahoma, and now lives in Edmond. She has three grown children and a huge network of supportive friends and family.

Other than reading and writing, her passions are Elvis Presley, MLB, NFL (she almost always works in a mention of one or all three into her stories) and watching (and rewatching) her favorite television shows like Dexter, Justified, Friends, Seinfeld, Everybody Loves Raymond, and Breaking Bad. Some of her favorite authors are Michael Connelly, Dennis Lehane, Lee Child, Lisa Gardn

Hello Shirley,

Yes, I have lived in the area. I was in Kansas City from 2006 to 2009. (Parkville, actually) I fell in love with the area. I miss living there even now. :) Thank you for asking. Are you from the area?(less)

Even if I'm blocked, I still at least put down some kind of scene notes, such as, 'Someone dies here' or 'She's angry and takes action' etc. If that is all I can come up with for a scene, I write only that, then move on to the next one. I know, when I come back to that scene, I'll either no longer be blocked, or I'll realize I was blocked because it didn't belong in the book, or because I was approaching it from the wrong angle, the wrong POV, or something along those lines.(less)
