Secrets of a Scandalous Heiress by Theresa Romain

In 2013 I closed my B&B and had a LOT of time to read all of a sudden. Why did you choose the genre you’ve chosen? I like being able to explore history without having to use footnotes. I taught history on the college level for 5 years and writing historicals allows me the chance to experience history in a less rigid and exacting setting. What do you love about writing historical romance? Sometimes I only end up with clean dishes… That often stimulates some new thoughts and sends me back to my laptop. When I can’t write I get up and walk around for 5 minutes or do some housework.

The closest thing I have to a writing-related ritual is drinking my daily coffee from my “lucky” cup. burning a candle if you’re having trouble getting started at the computer or writing longhand first if you’re feeling uninspired.) I write in bed, which people seem to think is weird.ĭo you have any writing rituals? (e.g. If things still aren’t “happening” after a couple hours I’ll catch up on other writing-related matters like editing or the dreaded drafting of synopses. I usually write two or three books at the same time so if I get stuck on one I’ll shift to another. She puts her tortured heroes through the wringer, and I love that! Definitely look for her books next year, but in the meantime, I’ll let Minerva tell you a bit about herself… I absolutely fell in love with her stories the moment I opened them. I am thrilled to introduce all of you to Minerva Spencer! She writes historical romances, and will be making her debut with Kensington in 2018.
