I think that men know how to romance a woman and most do it well, at least for a time, otherwise women wouldn`t marry them. The problem is that most of them begin to rest on their laurels.
I think that enduring, committed love between a married couple, along with raising children, is the most noble act anyone can aspire to. It is not written about very much.
I suppose more than anything, it`s the way of life in this part of the country that influences my writing. In Eastern North Carolina, with the exception of Wilmington, most people live in small towns.
I`ll admit that it`s not easy to get an agent, but becoming successful in anything requires perseverance.
