Colleen Coble writes romantic suspense with a strong atmospheric element. A lovable animal of some kind--usually a dog--always populates her novels. She can be bribed with DeBrand mocha truffles.
Denise Hunter writes women's fiction and love stories with a strong emotional element. Her husband says he provides her with all her romantic material, but Denise insists a good imagination helps too.
Diann Hunt writes romantic comedy and humorous women's fiction. She has been happily married forever, loves her family, chocolate, her friends, chocolate, her dog, and well, chocolate.
Cheryl Hodde writes romantic medical suspense under the pen name of Hannah Alexander, using all the input she can get from her husband, Mel, for the medical expertise. For fun she hikes and reads. Out of guilt, she rescues discarded cats. She and Mel are presently taking orders from four pampered strays.

Am very excited that CC&C is out early. Look forward to catching up with the latest (and sadly last) of the lovely Spa Girls! Congrats girls on all your awards!! Well deserved and hard earned!
Hey, I've been thinking about this for a few days and I wanted to ask...how do pre-orders affect you? In all areas, I guess, like financially and with publicity and everything. Are they a good indicator of how the book will sell when it comes out?
I'm not being eloquent, forgive me!
I always wonder why God made most writers insecure when we end up worrying so much who likes our writing! Also, I wish He made me a better speller:) Love your new book title (love all your book titles actually.) Thanks for the book reccomendation!
Congrats on your award! You look great in that pic....and so proud (which you should be-your books are such fun!)
Can't wait to read all about Poppy!
I read Calm, Cool & Adjusted -- and loved it! Poppy Clayton kept me turning the pages -- wish I could hang out with her in real life. :)
Oooh, can't wait to read Poppy's story. She's my favorite, I have such a love-hate relationship with all that au natural stuff even though I do love shopping at Whole Foods!
I know just what you mean about writers, insecurity, and being so affected by what others think of your work. After all, you're writing for others... how can you not care what they think? I had one of those moments recently... just turned in the first half of a book and was absolutely on pins and needles to hear back. Hearing a glowing response made my week. Doesn't seem very Christian, but there it is.
Yeah! I thought I was going to have to wait longer to hear Poppy's story. Though I don't relate to her style of clothes :), I totally get the organic and wholistic side of eating. My Mom brought me vitamins to church this morning ... I'm 30, she's 60, we haven't lived together for 6 years ... tells you a lot about how important my vitamins are! :) Anyway ... off to the bookstore. And, writers who get good words from publishers/editors/etc, FRAME THEM!!! I did! :) :) :)
Congrats on your win, Kristin. And congrats on all you've accomplished in your writing! You are an inspiration. I "remember when"--WAY BACK when you used to post about how you were writing "Christian chic lit" on the ACFW loop, and I thought, What is Christian chic lit?" (along with many others). But you held onto your dream and kept writing your passion, and the rest, as they say, is history. You are an inspiration to many. Did I say that already? Thank you.
Kristin,
Any idea when the audio versions of "The Spa Girls" triology will be available? They will make great gifts for my sister who has a long driving commute each day.
Thanks!
Will it be possible to get your book in Barcelona, in Catalan version?
Can't wait to read book three!
The audio versions . . . I talked to a media person about these, as when I travel, scrapbook, clean house, etc I listen to books on my iPod and I'd SOOOOOO love to listen to my favorite Christian author books rather than the fiction I usually listen to. I was told that it was not seen as profitable. {sigh}
So, I save those books for bubble bath reading, car line reading, late night reading.
But still put in my vote for audio one day.
Ooo, can't wait to read your book! I like loose cannons too:)
BTW, I just started The Thirteenth Tale, and I get so frustrated every time I have to set it down.
