Annie Rose Welch

Born and raised in New Orleans, Annie Rose Welch has a habit of
shortening her words and telling long stories. She speaks
with a southern flair and cooks with it too. At the tender
age of twenty-one, she hitched up her wagons (took her first
plane ride) and moved out west to the big shake
(California). Her writing career began one sleepless night
when she imagined a gorgeous woman and a man with maniacal
hair floating above her like lightening bugs falling from
the sky. Curious about them, their story, and why they were
floating around in her head, she sat down and penned (typed)
her first novel, Marigny Street. A dream come true for her,
she hasn't stopped writing since. She loves a damn good love
story, always has, no matter what the genre. She is
particularly moved by imperfect love that in its own unique
way is perfect, the notion of love at first sight, soul
mates, and things that are generally out of the norm.

When she's not writing she enjoys dabbling in photography
and finding new, inspirational music to add to her
collection. She currently (still) resides in the big shake
(although her southern roots are calling her home) with her
husband, daughter, and their two peculiar dogs, Boudreaux
and Tabasco (who, call her crazy, bark with an accent).
