Ruth Glick Quotes

Nobodys life is as romantic as it is in fiction Picture Quote #1

In ages past, there was less of a dichotomy between good literature and fun reads. In the twentieth century, I think, it split apart, so that you had serious fiction and genre fiction Picture Quote #1

I love to feed people, and I like to cook food they want to eat and food that will be good for them. I try to cook them things that are lower in fat and see if they will eat them Picture Quote #1

I have the power to write these books where I invent characters that I really like, and it gets to come out the way they want it to come out, and I get to make it happen Picture Quote #1

I didn’t know anything about romance novels until a friend suggested that I try writing one. After I read a few, I realized that my favorite part of fiction had always been the relationship aspect Picture Quote #1

The hero of ‘Dark Powers’ can touch murder victims and read their last memories Picture Quote #1

My heroes are always ready, willing, and able to execute moves necessary to get themselves out of deep trouble Picture Quote #1

Nowhere Man embodies one of my favorite themes - the hero completely out of his element. Its really near and dear to my heart Picture Quote #1

For me, the perfect romantic suspense hero has got to be tough on the outside but tender at his core. A take-charge kind of guy who has his own inner strength and a strong sense of right and wrong - which might not dovetail with the conventional wisdom. I mean, he might bend the law if he thinks the ends justify the means Picture Quote #1

I often think of setting as an important character in my story. ‘Dark Powers’ takes place in Doncaster, a Maryland Eastern Shore community rich with watermen and historic atmosphere. I modeled it after a stunning little town called St. Michaels, but since a lot of bad things happen in Doncaster, I changed the name Picture Quote #1

I’ve always thought that, as a romance writer, I had the best job in the world. I sit around all day making up emotion-drenched, conflict-laden stories that push my heroes and heroines to the edge of sanity. Then I give them a happy ending Picture Quote #1

If you’re chained to a computer all day, you’re not using up much energy, even if you drag yourself to the gym a couple of days a week. And to make matters worse for me, I’ve had a secondary career right along with my romance writing - cookbook author, under my real name, Ruth Glick Picture Quote #1

People will say, ‘I really don’t like romance,’ or, ‘I don’t read it - at all!’ So how do they know? Weirdly, I think that the ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ phenomenon introduced women to romance who would never have read it. And that means that they then go on to read my books, and that would be great Picture Quote #1

The reason I write romance is that I like happy endings. The idea, you know, ‘It’s not literature unless is ends badly,’ and I really don’t like that. There’s enough misery and bad things happening in the world Picture Quote #1

Unfortunately for me, most of the books I’d want to reprint were written for savvy publishers like Harlequin and Berkley who have held on to electronic rights. But I do have another option: Publish new e-books myself Picture Quote #1

I do a lot of recipe creation. Translation: cooking tempting dishes that must be eaten Picture Quote #1
