Ann Evans

A life-long procrastinator, Ann Evans spent twenty years polishing up the same story. With a loving push from friends and family, she finally walked into a local Romance Writers of America meeting to find out how to submit her work to a publisher. "I almost couldn't do it. I'm irrationally intimidated by women in hats, and one of the members was wearing a snazzy little red one that practically shouted PROFESSIONAL WRITER. I was afraid they'd laugh me out of the room for daring to think my writing could be taken seriously. Lucky for me, they were a great bunch of people who made me feel right a home."

They also helped her to see all the things she was doing wrong—"like having no conflict and no plot". With the help of a strong critique group and generous fellow writers, Ann began to understand just how a book ought to be structured. A year later she won the Golden Heart from Romance Writers of America for Best Short Contemporary of 1989.

Since that time Ann has sold regularly to Superromance. She swears she's not a slow writer, just a slow typist. Her eighth book, AFTER THAT NIGHT, will be out in June 2003. She has just signed a four-book contract with Superromance for a series about a big Italian family that can't resist meddling in each other's love lives.

Ann loves writing for Superromance. "They publish the kinds of books I like to read, so what could have been a better match for me?"

Born and raised in Florida, Ann lives in Orlando where she continues the love/hate relationship with her computer. She adores bobbing around in the pool, hot fudge sundaes, collecting antique postcards and finding any excuse to travel.

She still hates hats and refuses to own one.
