But you can move to Newfoundland which is the next best thing. When I moved back home I was immersed in the kaleidoscope that is our culture. And if you can’t take a joke, this is not the place to live.

Here are some people who’ve helped me along with way: www.catherinecoulter.com, www.rwa.org, www.doreenlewis.com, and www.paulbagdon.com. Okay, that’s enough to make my point. When I made this decision to be a writer, I had just come off of a run of reading non-fiction and when I picked up my first fiction book in a few years, it happened to be Catherine Coulter. Not being conditioned yet, I sent her an email. It’s in the back of her book, see? So I thought why not ask her what I should do to become a writer just like her. Catherine Coulter wrote back which was the biggest surprise of all. Her advice was for me to join Romance Writers of America where I could learn more about this business. So, that’s link #2. I flew off to Dallas, Texas, for my first ever romance writer’s conference and it was a lot to take in. More on that later. But one great thing that came from my experience there was that I met Doreen Lewis (check her out) who was the person who introduced me to Paul Bagdon and Paul was the person who taught me that while I may live in a cliché (Newfoundland – ever listen to the dialogue?) – I do not need it in my writing.

Life is supposed to be fun. Based on this premise, writing should be fun, too. And so should reading. In fact, reading is so much fun that at times it gets in the way of writing which is probably why my shelves are filled with books and more books.

I love comedy and I love writing and I love writing about crazy things that happen in my floating exotic island in the North Atlantic.
