For those of you who don’t know, I’ve been a host for the Harlequin.com Community since 2003. I was an infant when I started. J On the writing side, I help aspiring authors learn elements of craft from our authors and editors, and I help with our online pitches. Not everyone can attend a conference, so we love giving aspiring authors a chance to chat with editors to see if their book will work for one of our lines.
Which makes people wonder – did I have a special "in" for getting published? Believe it or not, no. I started writing in 2001 and didn’t get my first contract until 2013. I went through the same process everyone else did, except I was never eligible for online pitches and a lot of the cool opportunities we have through our site. That said, I do have a really good relationship with our editors, so when I sold, I had a whole team of people at Harlequin celebrating! They knew how long and hard I’ve been working for the chance to add author to my title.
Ultimately, what I do is about relationships. With readers, writers, and editors. Being a writer is often a lonely endeavor, being stuck at home behind a screen all day. When I found the community at Harlequin.com, I was a lonely SAHM facing the reality that being home alone with a baby all day isn’t always very fun. I longed for connection with other adults. To find a place where I could meet fellow readers was amazing. Then to realize that I could meet my favorite authors: bliss. To be encouraged to follow my dream of becoming a published author: heaven! Which is why, after all these years, I feel so blessed to be working on the community at Harlequin.com. If you’re looking for some good folks to love and support you on your journey – whatever it may be – we’d love to have you stop by and stay for a while. My community name is Dream – sort of an accident when I chose it, but now that I’ve lived with it for so long, I’m glad I have the constant reminder that your dreams can come true if you keep chasing them. Come visit us at http://community.harlequin.com/.
