I live in the beautiful Ozarks with my husband and our two dogs, Willie and Waylon. I have seventeen grandkids and thirteen great grands, including the cutest set of twins...that's right, I'm too young, I know... =) However, I love each and every one of them with all my heart, and wouldn't change a thing. My interest in writing novels came in the early 1990's. A friend suggested we write a book together, so I took her up on it. I joined Ozarks Romance Authors and a whole new world opened up for me. I absolutely love writing, editing, publishing and teaching the basics of writing to others. Hubby and I are retired road musicians. We have a boutique recording studio in our home and record everything from karaoke singles, live bands to audio books. We've published our music for quite some time, but publishing books has become a big part of my life. Paperback Press is an indie author publishing company. We are a service provider who helps indie authors self-publish fast and affordably. We also own the imprints, Kids Book Press and Audio Book Press. Please visi
