In 2011 I will tackle my first mainstream with a YA twist and because of the YA possibility, it will be under a yet to be determined name.<br /><br />I've only have one book that will switch genres. My first dive into the writing world was a contemporary romance that a computer crash lost half of. The revision and rewrites will move it into the paranormal/fantasy realm. Plus lots of changes to what didn't get lost...learned a lot since the first effort!Lizziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05336751801229275253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451507801345644.post-28427716357225863712010-12-22T09:15:45.811-05:002010-12-22T09:15:45.811-05:00Thank you Virgina and joder.Thank you Virgina and joder.Lizziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05336751801229275253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451507801345644.post-26448772344922553232010-12-22T09:14:37.503-05:002010-12-22T09:14:37.503-05:00Hi Estella, I enjoy Diana Gabaldon and Melissa May...Hi Estella, I enjoy Diana Gabaldon and Melissa Mayhue, though technically they aren't historical, but love their Scottish settings when the characters travel back in time.

I love hearing from fans and when I'm having a down day, getting an email from someone saying they enjoyed one of my books can turn things around.<br /><br />As for scary, I did have someone (a guy) who made me a bit nervous from some of the direct messages he sent on a social site. At first he was 'hi, like your work' then started getting strange. I ended up blocking him and so far, so good.Lizziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05336751801229275253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451507801345644.post-38603651744726778542010-12-22T09:03:00.214-05:002010-12-22T09:03:00.214-05:00Chey, the story takes place in Georgia during Sher...Chey, the story takes place in Georgia during Sherman's march to the sea...late 1864.<br /><br />Leni, I've always enjoyed studying the Civil War era...must be the southern thing since I grew up in NC and that period can still be an active conversation in some areas.Lizziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05336751801229275253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451507801345644.post-36687819752747688272010-12-22T09:00:10.166-05:002010-12-22T09:00:10.166-05:00Hi flechen1, Thanks for your question.

But most of my work is set in current times, even the paranormal which is a fun genre to write. Next year I'm venturing into mainstream with a new book as well as the 2nd in the Magical Love series. Beyond Magic, the first in that series releases in January.<br /><br />Linda -- I read holiday stories year round. When I have time, I read...start my day with the cereal box and end it falling to sleep with my Kindle or a print book. In between, it's work!Lizziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05336751801229275253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451507801345644.post-52760033475037581192010-12-21T11:05:27.218-05:002010-12-21T11:05:27.218-05:00Congratulations on your new release.
