Dorice Nelson

Dorice Nelson began her writing career after an early retirement from teaching and a move to the mountains in upstate New York, where she lives with her attorney husband, also a novelist, a happy-go-lucky mixed-breed dog and two personality-plus cats, all from a local shelter.

She has won or placed in eleven Romance Writers of America® chapter contests and finaled in many more. She sold her very first completed novel, The Gunn of Killearnan, a historic and romantic adventure, set in 1650 Scotland, to NovelBooks, Inc. (NBI) Her second book, Unlawful, an Irish medieval/adventure set during the time of the Norse raids, arrives on the NBI scene in January. Presently, she's working on another Irish historical, set during the beginnings of the Saratoga Thoroughbred Racing years. Two contemporary thrillers are in the offing.
