We're thrilled to welcome Anne Gracie as a new Word Wench! Her first book, Gallant Waif, was published in 2000 and was a RITA finalist. Since then, Anne has collected a large and devoted following.
Her most recent book, His Captive Lady, was released in September. It garnered 4 1/2 stars from Romantic Times and is an RT Top Pick and K.I.S.S. award winner.
Anne's life has been varied and fascinating. She's backpacked around the world and sung in a band, climbed glaciers and kept bees, been a school teacher and swum most of the famous rivers in Europe by the time she was eight. She lives in Australia with her dog, her bees, and her feather boas, but has also lived in Scotland, Malaysia and Greece.
Anne is immediate past president of Romance Writers of Australia, having served 2 years as president and 6 years on the committee.
Anne's first post will be tomorrow, 10/27, so please drop by and say hello. (Keep in mind that Anne is in a different time zone--she's a day ahead of us here in the U.S.)
Welcome aboard, Anne!
