Spotlight on Florida Writers by Kristin Wallace

This month on RTG, we’re promoting other authors. We were told we could pick a theme or simply authors we love. I decided to go with a sort-of theme and feature Florida authors. Now, they might not all write stories that take place in Florida (although some do), but they all reside in my home state. They are fellow members of my local writers chapter Florida Romance Writers (FRW), a chapter of Romance Writers of America (RWA) in southeast Florida (Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, Palm Beach, and the Keys).

Most write in a variety of romance genres, but others are published in genres outside of romance, including historical fiction and mysteries. 

So, here they are….
