Author Belle Whittington
About this author: Belle resides somewhere north of Houston, Texas in a small inconsequential town with the smallest most inconsequential name. There, in the shady reaches of the pines, elms, and oaks, she daydreams of adventures and secrets that she weaves throughout her stories.
Having studied literature at University of Houston, Belle has been known to consider teaching at the college level someday.
I write because: It’s part of me. It’s my passion. To no longer write would be to no longer daydream … and that would be an impossibility.
I am: a true Texan to my core.A super random factoid about me is: That my inner monologue reading voice has a British accent.The last thing you would ever expect me to like (even though I secretly do) is: Alternative RockSome wise words I love are: “You’re never too late to be what you might have been.” ~George EliotMy favorite discovery as of late: Google docs!Best cure for a bad day is: Seeing my doggie. Her sheer glee when I come home is contagious.My favorite thing to do on a Friday is: Veg out.Happy ever after is: Writing for a living and long, healthy years with my family.I write because: It’s part of me.I have always: Loved science fiction.I hope to: Create books my readers will enjoy and remember.I can: Daydream anywhere and anytime.I dream of: One day being able to support myself solely on my writing so that I can dedicate more of my energy to my stories.The way to my heart is: Through kindness.I am passionate about: Writing, family, friends, my doggie, and my readers.I am proud of: My daughter.This month I will: Get FIREFLY ready for release on February 2, 2012
