Award-Winning Author of Slow-Burn Romances between Strong Women

Interview with lesbian romance author Georgia Beers

Last year, I started interviewing full-time writers of lesbian fiction. The list would hardly be complete without today’s guest. Georgia Beers lives in Rochester with her wife—the awesome-sounding Bonnie—, their niece, two dogs, and a cat. She’s the author of almost a dozen novels and short stories, including Starting from Scratch, 96 Hours (which I really enjoyed), and Snow Globe, her newest release. Despite being a self-confessed introvert, she was the keynote speaker at last year’s GCLS conference and filmed a hilarious video about “A Day in the Life of a Romance Writer.” If you haven’t watched it yet, go …

Interview with fellow author Caren Werlinger

In November and Dezember, I interviewed 10 full-time writers of lesbian fiction. In 2014, I would like to interview writers of lesbian fiction who don’t write full-time. My first guest is Caren Werlinger, who up until last year was a fellow L-Book author and is now publishing under her own imprint.

Her newest book, Year of the Monsoon, was published just a few days ago. Welcome to my blog, Caren. Let’s start with some …

Interview with lesbian romance author KG MacGregor

Back in November, I featured a series of interviews with fellow full-time writers of lesbian fiction. I had some wonderful guests, but today I’m especially proud to interview one of my all-time favorites in the lesbian romance genre—KG MacGregor. KG holds a PhD in journalism and worked as a teacher and market research consultant before trying her hand at writing fiction in 2002. If I counted correctly, she’s now the author of 18 novels, among them Etched in Shadows, Mulligan, Out of Love, and my personal favorite, the Shaken series. Read on for what KG had to say about her life …

Interview with fellow writer Kim Pritekel

Welcome to the second in my series of interviews with fellow (full-time) writers. Today, I’m interviewing Kim Pritekel. Kim started writing at the age of nine, wrote her first novel at twelve, and was published for the first time at twenty-four. She is now published with Sapphire Books. I haven’t read all of her novels yet, but I loved Connection (which you might know as The Collector, which was the title of the online version), Lessons, and Twilight (again, no, not that Twilight—I like Kim’s much better). So here’s what Kim had to say about her life as a writer. …

Interview about my lesbian romance Something in the Wine

I’ve been tagged by fellow author Q. Kelly for the 22nd week of The Next Big Thing Blog Hop. The idea is to hop from blog to blog to discover exciting books we might not have heard about or that are still works in progress. Each author will answer the same ten questions, then list authors who will answer the questions on their blogs next Wednesday. So let’s get started… What is the working title of your book? My book’s title is Something in the Wine. Since the novel has already been published, it’s not a working title. By the …
