Erica DeQuaya

During her more than two decades of writing, Erica DeQuaya has been a journalist with regional and national articles published under numerous bylines, a produced playwright and scriptwriter, and a copywriter with a base of happy repeat clients.

But as far back as her childhood, Erica always wanted to write fiction - and recently decided to turn her dream into reality by editing and writing the fiction she most enjoys reading. "Romantica is escapism but it's also an honest and earthy part of reality," says Erica, explaining why she enjoys the genre. "I love reading romances but get tired of having the bedroom door slammed in my face when things start getting interesting!"

Although her characters come from her imagination, Erica's romantic inspiration comes courtesy of her husband. "Even after more than 16 years of marriage, he's one of the most loving and caring individuals I know," Erica says. "We love spending time together, although our kissing and hugging really grosses our son out."

Born, raised and educated in Chicago, Erica lives in Texas with her husband, son and a neurotic dog. When she isn't writing, Erica enjoys hanging out with friends and family.
