And usually a four-legged or winged companion, too. She’s also the voice behind an ever-expanding library of more than 200 audiobooks.

Becky and her Tomato Man met in the '80s (big hair, big hats, poofy sleeves, the works - see her About Page on BeckyDoughty.com). They live at the end of a lane on top of a hill in a hundred-year-old house. They share their lives with never enough pets, and they grow dueling riotous, rambling gardens. Most of the things in their gardens are edible… but some are most definitely not, due to Becky’s fascination with poisonous plant

I keep my own hours. I'm available to my family, even when I'm "not all there" (which is usually the case!). I have the best muse - my deerhound/lab mix pound pup, Betsy. I get to live multiple lives (vicariously, yes, but I'm much more daring that way!). Chocolate. I'm a natural-born liar and by writing stories, I get to tap into that "gift" and get paid for it! And I don't get in nearly as much trouble! I'm leaving a tangible legacy for my kids and loved ones; one I can be proud of, one that marks the passage of time, my personal growth, my faith, and so much more.(less)

I don't suffer from this as often as I suffer from a lack of time to write! But nothing prods my characters like reading other people's books. I was a reader long before I was a writer, and that's what led me into this career in the first place: my love of the written word.(less)

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

“But the world has taken lust and disguised it as love. They’ve taken sex and disguised it as intimacy. They’ve taken commitment and disguised it as a prison. They’ve twisted everything until it’s all inside out, and then we wonder why everyone is so confused about relationships.”
Becky Doughty, Waters Fall

“Just don't fall in love with a guy before you know anything about him. Talk to his friends. Find out what you can about his family life. If he won't share his life with you before you marry, there's no reason to think he'll share it with you after the vows tie you to him." Sharon”
Becky Doughty, Juliette and the Monday ManDates

“casually on the blanket beside me, an offer of solace when”
Becky Doughty, All the Way to Heaven

Thanks - Just trying to feel all this stuff out. I'm trying to crawl out of "old-school" and it's slow! But I'm determined to disprove the old adage about old dogs and new tricks, you know?
