I’m guest blogging today at Romance Magicians with author M.V. Freeman about The King of Threadneedle Street, my new historical. We talk about star-crossed lovers, mad geniuses, and who claims to be “unaffected by heroic nudity in art.” Stop by and say hello, and there might be a complimentary ebook in it for you! What was the hardest […]
Throw out your tired old bargain bin Classical Music album. Here are five lesser-known gems by brilliant but under-appreciated composers sure to provide inspiration for the most transcendent, sophisticated ideas you’ve ever conjured. 1. If you watched Looney Tunes, you know the cross-dressing Bugs Bunny only prances with open arms toward the hoodwinked Elmer Fudd to the sound of Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 1. With apologies […]
Way back in 1992 *snickering* when I wrote a term paper on the de Medicis or amoebas or whatever, guess what I spent most of my time doing: A – Doodling my future signature, Mrs. Brain Surgeon, in the margins B – Wrestling with that %@$! dot matrix printer C – Wandering stupidly around the […]
Beethoven thrashed pianos. Van Gough sliced off his ear. Einstein smoked cigarette nubs left on the street. Pythagoras believed beans are evil. Tesla avoided touching any round-shaped object [insert dirty joke here]. I bet you’re smiling or chuckling good-naturedly. That’s because I cited some of humanity’s most revered geniuses. We all do weird stuff, and worse […]
Allow me to introduce M.V. Freeman, debut author of “Incandescent,” recently released by Crimson Romance. A favorite read this year, Incandescent has it all, with enough magic, explosions, and combat to keep me happy − more sophisticated people rave about the complex lifelike characters, the sophisticated, highly emotive voice and unique, exciting plot. All I know is […]
Join me and M.V. Freeman today at the Romance Magicians blog. We discuss why the hero of “Song for Sophia” is Rain Man with “X-Men” Wolverine’s attitude in Jude Law’s body, I swallow my pride and tell the contents of my rejection letters, why it was worth it to fight for my unconventional story, and Wilhelm […]
Kids have an uncanny knack for embarrassing grown-ups. Most young children can’t tell time, yet their sense of timing is impeccable. That, combined with their tendency to say exactly what’s on their mind, makes for some red-faced moments. Sadly, for me, these 10 stories aren’t even the worst of it. I’m not telling those. Missed the first two in the “Weird […]
Introducing Susannah Sandlin, an author of paranormal romance set in the Deep South, where there are always things that go bump in the night! A longtime journalist, Susannah grew up in Alabama reading the gothic novels of Susan Howatch, and always fancied herself living in Cornwall, although she’s never actually been there. Details, details. She […]
You might have noticed I practically worship Kaki Warner, the super-star western-themed historical romance writer who was so kind to let me interview her here earlier this week. She was so gracious to return the favor. Today I’m guest blogging on her feature titled “Virgin No More,” where I talk about by [rocky] journey to […]
Today I’m guest blogging with 2012 RWA Golden Heart finalist Terri Osburn at Romance Writer’s Revenge. I talk about why I had to delete the entire first draft of “Song for Sophia” and start over. Find out why I spent months researching calculus and psychological disorders and emerged with an unconventional manuscript which finaled in the RWA Golden Heart contest. […]
Moriah Densley loves writing about Victorians, assassins, and nerds. Once upon a time she was a violin teacher, then a 911 EMT, and now she’s an ER nurse, proving she has career ADHD.

Published in historical and paranormal romance, Moriah has a Master’s degree in music, is a 2012 RWA Golden Heart finalist, 2012 National Reader’s Choice Award winner in Historical Romance, and 2012 NRCA Best First Book finalist.
