Thrilled to be able to put down her answer, she put writer. Then it asked what Carol did for relaxation and she put down the truth - writing. The third question asked for her hobbies.

They were never publihed, but the writing bug had bitten.

In 1987 Diana realized her dearest ambition - the publication of her first Mills & Boon romance.
Diana lives in Shropshire, England, with her husband. Helen Brooks began writing in 1990 as she approached her 40th birthday! She realized her two teenage ambitions (writing a novel and learning to drive) had been lost amid babies and hectic family life, so set about resurrecting them.

Helen lives in Northampton, England with her husband and family. Anne Mather always wanted to write. For years she wrote only for her own pleasure, and it wasn't until her husband suggested that she ought to send one of her stories to a publisher that they put several publishers' names into a hat and pulled one out.

Annie has devoted her life to an intensive study of charismatic heroes who cause the best kind of trouble in the lives of their heroines.
As a sideline she researches locations for romance, from vibrant cities to desert encampments and fairytale castles. Annie lives in eastern Australia with her hero husband, between sandy beaches and gorgeous wine country. She finds writing the perfect excuse to postpone housework.
