Once upon a time, I was a perfectly respectable London professional — a chartered accountant with a law degree, a Blackberry (remember those?), and too many sensible shoes. Then common sense prevailed, romance called, and I swapped London’s Zone One for Devon’s zero signal. I still wonder if leaving the City was brave or simply plot research taken to a reckless extreme.

I grew up in Columbia, MD and wrote my first story at 7-years-old—and have been addicted to storytelling ever since. I loved it so much that I considered my pencil to be one of my best friends!
Since then, I’ve written books, screenplays/scripts, comedy sketches, and comic strips—I love it all!
I went to college at UMBC and upon graduation I moved to Los Angeles to work as a writer and filmmaker.
My latest work is the novel UNCONDITIONAL. I spent two years writing it, and it was a labor of love. I also hope to make it my second feature film.
My first film DANCE BABY DANCE was released in 2018. I wrote it, produced it, directed it, and acted in it. I loved every hat I got to wear!

When not scribbling away in her peppermint-and-green summerhouse (garden shed), she spends her time sifting flour and sprinkling sugar and edible glitter. She loves gossiping with friends over a glass of something fizzy or indulging in a spot of afternoon tea - china plates and teacups are a must. -

Greetings!

My name is Amelia Short and I love writing books set in is sunny, far away places.
I am lucky enough to live by the seaside in beautiful Devon, England with my husband, where I like to take inspiration from the rolling waves and fresh sea air. It’s the perfect place for long walks where I can think through my plot lines or listen to podcasts and audiobooks.
I love to travel and explore as often as my work and finances will allow. I like nothing more than to delve into a good holiday read (even before the flight has taken off!) and hope my book will give my readers the same enjoyment.
I am currently enjoying writing my Romantic Comedy series, A Place in Greece.
Happy reading!! -

Family life and two very diverse careers later she now spends most days glued to a keyboard, which she refers to as her personal quality time.
'It's only when you know who you are that you truly understand what makes you happy - and writing about love, life and relationships makes me leap out of bed every morning!'
If she isn't online she's either playing with the kids, whose imaginations seem to know no bounds, or painting something. As a serial house mover together with her lovely husband, there is always a new challenge to keep her occupied! -
Susanne McCarthy
I'm a Londoner, though now I live in Devon, a twenty-minute walk from the sea. I love nothing more than walking my pretty Cavapoo on the beach in the rain (well, OK, I don't object to the sun, but when it's raining we usually have the whole beach to ourselves.)

Back in the day I had 25 novels published by Mills&Boon. After a long gap doing other things I found my love of writing again, and self-published three new novels.
But I knew that to reach more readers I needed an established publisher. Step in Joffe Books. They were top of my list so I was delighted when they accepted the first novel I sent them.
This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship. -

Hello! I live in the Forest of Dean, with my husband and tiny pug.
I love writing, and do so whenever my chronic illness allows. I also work part time for the NHS.
I love to hear feedback and comments about my characters, and it makes my day to know somebody, somewhere, has enjoyed what I have created.
I currently have FIVE books available:
IN DEEP- A spicy thriller set beneath the heat of the Spanish sun.
DEEPER STILL - sequel to IN DEEP- a coming of age tale of revenge.
WE CLOSE OUR EYES, is an intriguing and suspenseful drama.
WHEN WAR CAME TO LAUNDRY COTTAGE - a compelling tale of courage, prejudice and intrigue, set against the backdrop of WW2. A firm favourite with my readers.
Readers tell me that they love the twists and turns in my storie -

I believe in second chances. The theme has surprised me by prancing into every one of my books. So many people live out their lives without getting what they want or what they need. Instead, they settle for less, subsisting instead of making things happen.
As you get to know my characters, I want you imbued with a sense of hope and possibility--with the magic that can happen when someone first pokes a toe out of her comfort zone and decides to make things happen. I want you to relate to my discretely individual characters who, like most women, desire and deserve true love; authentic relationships, whether they be friends, mothers, grown children, lovers, or partners; and work that is meaningful. I want you to care about the character's emoti -

I’ve been writing stories since I was nine years old.

It all started with a birthday gift: a book from my beloved Oma. And then another, and another—for every birthday that followed. From Anne of Green Gables to The Chronicles of Narnia and Heidi, I devoured novels and soon felt inspired to write my own.
At nine, not yet able to use a typewriter, I handwrote my first series of novels on large, unlined orange sheets of paper my father—an orthopedic surgeon—brought home from the hospital. These sheets, meant to separate X-ray films, became the canvas for my diagonally written stories, complete with illustrations, stitched binding, and handmade covers crafted from the backs of my coloring books.
My passion for storytelling only grew. Early fictio -
Nicole Sharp
Legend has it that Nicole Sharp was born to hippies during an ice storm in Stone Mountain, Georgia. While confirmation of said events cannot be agreed upon, one fact is for certain, it was a Tuesday. By age twelve, Nicole was sure of two things: 1) She wanted to be a writer and 2) She wanted to travel. She begged her parents to allow her to voyage alone to exotic lands. They permitted to go from California to Boise, Idaho to visit a great-grandmother.
