Raw. Real. Emotional Romance. Writing provocative and darker themed romance that always finds its happily ever after!

Most of my books are standalone stories in connected series. Whether it's the setting, theme or family connections, my series are often multi-generational and span decades.

I draw inspiration for my Appalachian Mountain Mysteries series from my years living on a farm in the mountains of North Carolina.

Hard to believe, but while on the farm near a town of only 200, I got my start as a writer. It launched a career that includes more than 1200 magazine -

W.L. Liberman believes in the power of story telling but is not a fan of the often excruciating psychic pain required to bring stories to life. Truthfully, years of effort and of pure, unadulterated toil is demanded. Not to sugar coat it, of course, writing is a serious endeavor. It is plain, hard work. If you’ve slogged away at construction work, at lumber jacking, delivery work, forest rangering, sandwich making, truck driving, house painting, among other things, as I have, writing is far and beyond more rigorous and exhausting. At the end of a long, often tedious, usually mind cracking process, some individual you don’t know pronounces judgment and that judgment is usually a resounding ‘No’. This business of writing is about perseverance
