BookBrowse: Thanks for joining us on the BookBrowse Community Forum for a few days, Renee! Please tell the group a little bit about yourself and your books.
Renee Rosen: Thanks BookBrowse and hello to all the BookBrowers. I'm coming to you from Chicago where I live downtown in a loft (built in 1909) with my partner and "book sherpa," John.
To date I've written 9 historical novels and am working on number 10. I tend to write about strong, trailblazing women like Helen Gurley Brown (Park Avenue Summer), Estee Lauder (Fifth Avenue Glamour Girl), Alva Vanderbilt (The Social Graces) and Ruth Handler (Let's Call Her Barbie). But I've also written a few books that feature mostly fictional characters (Dollface and White Collar Girl). I also jump around in time periods and have two book set in the Gilded Age, one in the Roaring Twenties, and several in the 40s, 50s, 60s and 70s. I guess you could say I write all across the board.
My most recent novel, Let's Call Her Barbie has been out since the end of January and I've been on the road ever since, promoting from the West Coast to the East, so it feels great to be at home, sitting at my desk and having this time with all of you.
I truly appreciate this opportunity and please feel free ...
