Librarian note: There is more than one author in the GoodReads database with this name "I haven’t always been a writer. My parents are writers and my brother is a writer, and I resisted that as long as I could. When I was 17, I hopped in a band’s van and I went on tour for a summer, and that was it, that was what I wanted to do. I ran a record label for 10 years, a small indie punk label. I did everything in music that you can do that doesn’t involve having musical ability. Eventually the music business, probably in a similar way to comics, will just start to break your heart, and I realized one day that I kind of hated music. I was resigned to thinking, if I’m going to be involved in music forever, I’m going to hate it for the rest of my life. I just stopped. I stopped having any sort of business with music, any involvement. I read comics my whole life, so I just naturally fell back into another medium that is marginalized and hard to make a living in."

I've always loved romance novels, and I can remember back in high school, propping up my science books so that my teachers wouldn't see the steamy novels I had hidden inside. :) And now I get to write such books! LOL! These days, I live in California with my wonderful family, and yes, I'm still a voracious reader. I read anything and everything... when I get the time. I've discovered photography and LOVE it! I do love to hear from you, so if you like, email me at DDawson@DelilahDawson.com
