Anne Carter's Interests
General
Although redundant, I still have to put writing at the top. Reading, creating anything on the computer (I'm also a Photoshop artist) cooking...anything to do with lighthouses.
Praise for Anne Carter
POINT SURRENDER
"A quiet coastal town with a stormy past tows the reader in from the very first page. Unresolved mysteries and a passionate romance keep the pages turning." –Molly Evans, author of The Surgeon's Proposal (Harlequin)
"Truly a wonderful read…ghosts…mystery…A truly heart touching story and one with an ending that will surprise. I truly enjoyed reading this story and the suspense kept me hooked to the very last page." –Coffee Time Reviews
STARFIRE
"…a powerful tale of morality versus destiny…. With unerring passion and heart-pounding perfection, Ms. Carter weaves an intricate drama…truly captivating…" –Dawn Whitmire, author of Heart First
"Starfire by Anne Carter is almost scary. It takes a part of your own life, intermingles it with your dreams, and creates reality. I absolutely love her story. Pens raised to Anne Carter." –Romance Reviewer Brett Scott

Books
My own, of course. Nora Roberts is the best romance author. Stephen King for horror. Stories about lighthouses.
Heroes
My dad, for being just the best guy ever. Paul Newman, for staying married to the same lovely woman for so long. Aragorn, for keeping Middle Earth safe and for being so hot.
MacGyver, for doing it all with a gum wrapper and a Swiss Army knife.
They say writing is a lonely profession -- unless your characters keep you company.
Been writing romance stories since middle school, and see no end in sight. I live in sunny So Cal, hate cold weather, love to drive through the canyons with the top down. I'm a movie nut, especially for big stories, epic films, fantasy, romance, sci-fi, etc.
Yes, I'm married, have three incredibly smart, beautiful children (of course,) and last year I finally traded my gorgeous but problematic BMW for a gorgeous and practical Toyota Highlander Hybrid. Doesn't that just sound like an L.A. yuppie?
