I wrote several novels in that genre, but then stop writing for a while and I finished my degree. When I starting writing again, I was deep into reading and studying YA time-travel so I wrote several of those and surprise I started selling them.<br /><br />But this spring, one of my romantic suspense books will be released. Yes, I'm counting my blessings and I'm very grateful!<br /><br />Ooooh! Horror sounds very challenging. But what fun!!!Kathi Oram Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11959149321213743448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6470708183254646866.post-67366027188249511832010-09-10T13:48:32.174-06:002010-09-10T13:48:32.174-06:00World building is fun!

Putting someone who is ordinary in unusual circumstances is much more interesting than the usual stuff. Hmmm...if I could write something else I guess I'd try a thriller. I've always liked reading those, too.Melissa Hursthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15530652829980250261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6470708183254646866.post-45711942757857875262010-09-09T07:22:47.424-06:002010-09-09T07:22:47.424-06:00Ooooh, Horror.

That's why I read fantasy almost to the exclusion of all else. YA was always a little cleaner than the adult stuff so that's what drew me in there.
