Laurie Brown

Laurie Brown says she writes because she loves to, because she needs to do it in order to stay sane, and because writing gets her out of housework. By day a mild-mannered accountant, she spends her evenings and weekends writing, following her alpha heroes and spunky heroines on their madcap adventures to a happy ending. She writes historical, contemporary, and paranormal romances, each with a humorous voice and sensual tone. Her second time-travel romance "What Would Jane Austen Do?" was a Romance Writers of America RITA Finalist in the Paranormal Category.

Besides speaking at writing conferences from Florida to Washington, Laurie has taught a number of writing classes at College of DuPage. She loves to hear from readers, especially if they laughed out loud while reading her books.
