I wrote an "invisible man" story for Harlequin American many years ago and one about a semi-magical healer for the same line. Then I did three time travels (SOMEWHERE IN TIME - 1992; TOMORROW & ALWAYS - 1993; DESTINY'S CHILD - 1995) for Harlequin/MIRA. I've been doing mostly women's fiction since then but when the idea for CASTING SPELLS popped into my head I was hooked and just had to write it.Barbara Brettonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05511579314866705203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2550157220540446805.post-81148244149777435612009-04-23T23:27:00.000-04:002009-04-23T23:27:00.000-04:00Hi again!

The one cover makes me hungry! I am really into paranormal books at the moment. I have bought so many! I would love to win your new books! <br /><br />I have a question for you, when did you make the leap into the paranormal genre? Did you find it harder or easier to write a paranormal book?Michele L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15827059770508809460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2550157220540446805.post-43053082974853865612009-04-23T22:37:00.000-04:002009-04-23T22:37:00.000-04:00Barbara, I loved reading your post.

The honest an...Popinfresh, that's a great question. The honest answer is simply that taking ideas to the next level is what I do. When you write for a living as I've been doing for over twenty years, taking an idea to the next level becomes second nature. The problem is not every idea merits the jump to the next level. Many times a great idea sputters and dies somewhere around chapter three. What you have to do is close your eyes and take the leap and trust there will be a net there to catch you if it doesn't work out. And somehow there always is. I hope this helps. <br /><br />If it doesn't, I'm open to more questions so please ask away.Barbara Brettonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05511579314866705203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2550157220540446805.post-66655104401487002812009-04-23T21:59:00.000-04:002009-04-23T21:59:00.000-04:00Hi Barbara,
