Karlene Pitters

I was always a creative person but didn't discover my passion for writing until 14 years ago. I have been writing ever since but didn't pursue it as a career until seven years ago. The idea of writing a book came to me during a dream. I found my passion and haven't look back.\n\n​My writing is simple and straight to the point.  I spend much of my time developing the characters. You have to know your hero and heroine inside out for them to come to life. I want my readers to talk about my characters as if they were real people. I work hard to make them distinctive.\n\nI used to read Harlequin Romance novels in my teens, and it's what inspired me to want to write in the romance genre. My brand or style is writing multi-cultural romance; it's what I relate to the most. Being from a Jamaican background pushes me to work harder to attain the American dream. As a child growing up on the island of Jamaica is where my love of storytelling started. I used to travel to different parts of the world in my imagination...reading was what I did with the majority of my free time.\n\n\n
