Raelene Gorlinsky
My life revolves around reading (800
books in my TBR mountain), writing
(book reviews for fun; technical
writing as a profession),
and 'rithmatic (how many more years
until my teenage son graduates?!?).
When not busy with all that, I am owned
by three Pembroke Welsh Corgis who
require not only feeding and walking
and adoration, but also must be
shuttled to obedience classes and
tracking practice and dog shows. I
collect Barbie dolls, old dictionaries,
Corgi paraphernalia, and the books of
my favorite authors.
My reading tastes cover romance, light
mystery, and fantasy books. I
definitely prefer contemporary
settings, although I read a few
historicals -- and future-set
fantasies. I love paranormal romances
(vampires! werewolves!), romantic
suspense, romantic comedy, and
romantica/light erotica. I prefer
mature, experienced heroines; usually
don't care for tortured heroes or
very 'dark' books; can't stand baby
books; and am burned out on time
travels. The only series books I read
regularly are SIMs, Blazes, and some
Temptations. I make exceptions if a
favorite author writes a book for
another line. My favorite publisher is
Ellora's Cave.
