Zoe Winters writes Paranormal Romance. (I say this, hoping against hope that google will pick it up and when people google me they won’t get all confused. Google me and you’ll see what I mean.)

Now for the blah blah blah part.

I enjoy thunderstorms, and long walks on the beach, but not during thunderstorms. (Sometimes you have to be very specific about these things.)

My favorite colors are rainbow and clear.

As for “What I wanted to be when I grew up”… (Because no “about me” page is complete without that.) Let’s see, I wanted to be a spy, a PI, in the FBI, then finally I wanted to be something that didn’t rhyme, an actress, a cartoon animator (before it all went digital), a makeup artist (for horror films), a wedding coordinator (I actually did that one for awhile), a reporter, an attorney, I may be leaving something out. Being a writer was pretty much a constant since Junior High, if not a little before, while all the other things came and went.

Writing is something that has followed me around like a monkey on my back for a very long time. I don’t really understand people who “quit writing,” because the way it works for me, I have to write. I don’t feel like me when I’m not writing. When I stop for awhile everything goes to crap, so I figure I may as well just keep going. It’s not going to leave me alone, and the feeling I get while writing, when I’m in flow and creating something that I love, is the next best thing to an orgasm. Hey, I write about sex and love, I can say things like that. And if I can’t, I’m totally quitting writing. :P

In other news…I talk a lot about marketing and the publishing journey on my blog. As of this page update I’m not yet published and almost but not quite ready to start offering some things on my site for free.

So what do I know? Only what I’ve read and learned. Only what makes sense to me. Through trial and error I’ll get a clearer picture. This really is about a journey and not about me knowing everything because I don’t. Or being some kind of self help guru for writers, cause I’m definitely not. I’m just a girl on the same road other writers are on, sharing where I am when I’m there. I hope if you’re a writer some of it helps you or sparks you along on your journey, and if you’re a reader, that it isn’t putting you to sleep. :P
