Once upon a time there was a little girl who wanted to be a
writer. Of course, Renee wanted to be a professional ice
dancer, an Olympic gymnast, and a fashion model too. But
once she learned she had no athletic aptitude and wasn’t
going to be six-foot tall and stick thin, her love for
writing and books grew. She read anywhere and everywhere she
could—including during class (especially math and science).
Uh, not so good for school, but it encouraged her passion
for books, opening her up to some of her favorite authors,
including her all-time fave Jane Austen.
But as her love for reading grew, so did her love for
writing. She wrote short stories and poems, which were read
out loud in class and even occasionally published. But, for
some reason in her twenties she just stopped. Cold. Oh, she
dreamed about it, of course, but her life seemed too busy.
Then she moved from Upstate New York to Dallas, Texas, and
her passion for writing returned, especially stories of love
and personal journeys, and now she can’t imagine doing
anything else.
Renee has been published by The Wild Rose Press, Siren/Bookstrand
Publishing and Wild Child Publishing. She has worked as an
editor for several independant publishers, finaled in
Romance Writer of America Contests, has written for
newspapers and magazines, and gives workshops and seminars
on writing and the business side of writing.
Renee lives in the East with her very first love and
wonderful husband, as well as her young son, whose love of
learning amazes her every day. Renee has traveled all over
the world, living in both Europe and Asia. She loves yoga,
walking and makes sure to learn one new thing every day.
