A self-described nerd and lover of science, I spent many years writing technical manuals for Silicon Valley companies specializing in 3D graphics workstations, software and 3D animation (my movie credits include SHREK and SHREK 2). An interest in genealogy led to years of research on the Regency era and a desire to write fiction based in that time. Eleven novels have been published (The Kiss of a Viscount, The Grace of a Duke, The Seduction of an Earl, Tuesday Nights, The Widowed Countess, My Fair Groom, The Story of a Baron, The Passion of a Marquess, The Desire of a Lady, and The Love of a Rake).
