USA Today Bestselling author P. Dangelico loves romance in all forms, furry creatures, the NY Jets (although she’s reconsidering after this season), and to while away the day at the barn (apparently she does her best thinking shoveling horse poop).

Hi Cintia,
Here are my two cents. Stop reading about the industry. You’re a writer not a publisher. Stop thinking about rejection and start focusing on your ideas. Pivot. Pivot. Pivot. Start writing one paragraph a day. Add another when it starts flowing. Stop looking for an idea. Everything has already been written. All you can offer is your voice. Take any topic and write down your thoughts. Whenever you get stuck tell yourself to keep it simple.
Good luck. (less)

Sledgehammer...mmmm yes it's definitely our little Amber. But you'll have to wait for the blurb to see who and how she...oops no spoilers :))
Ben and Charlotte. Ugh. My romantic suspense novels are heavily plot driven and take much longer to write *heavy sigh* there's a whole lotta back story I'm developing on Charlotte (Ben, I have down pat) so that won't be out til probably Sept of this year. Hope that helps! Also, just a heads up. The great thing about self publishing is that I can write whatever i feel like or more precisely what the crazy voices in my head tell me to ;) so I may release a secondary spin off book to The Hard To Love Series called Babymaker this summer.
Thank you so so so very much for reading my books! I hope you enjoyed reading them as much as I did writing them.

Quotes by P. Dangelico  (?)

“Why is it that everyone has the answers when they aren’t the ones in pain?”
P. Dangelico, Wrecking Ball

“There are moments in life where you don’t get a do-over, where the true nature of your character is revealed. You either step up to the plate or lose your chance forever. These moments shape a life. These moments earn you the right to say to yourself ‘at least I got the important stuff right.”
P. Dangelico, Wrecking Ball

“I would sneak a peek at while on line at the supermarket. Every time I read something like this, “His masculine beauty took my breath away.” I used to think… A: what kind of a dumbass wrote this dreck. And B: what kind of dumbass reads this drivel. And yet, here I stand, making doe eyes at this man, and what am I thinking? His masculine beauty takes my breath away. That’s right. Who’s the dumbass now?”
P. Dangelico, Wrecking Ball

“All the fires of hell could burn for a thousand years and it wouldn't equal what I feel for you in one minute of the day. I love you so much there is no pleasure in it. Nothing but torment. Because if I could dilute what I feel for you to the mil­lionth part, it would still be enough to kill you. And even if it drives me mad, I would rather see you live in the arms of that cold, soulless bastard than die in mine," Merripen said to Win.”
Lisa Kleypas, Seduce Me at Sunrise

“Well . . ." St. Vincent walked slowly with her to the crowd of dancers. "I'm a wicked man who can, on occasion, be just a bit nice. And I've been searching for a nice girl who can, on occasion, be just a bit wicked.”
Lisa Kleypas, It Happened One Autumn

“A friend said to me, “Hey you need to grow a pair. Grow a pair, Bro.” It’s when someone calls you weak, but they associate it with a lack of testicles. Which is weird, because testicles are the most sensitive things in the world. If you suddenly just grew a pair, you’d be a lot more vulnerable. If you want to be tough, you should lose a pair. If you want to be real tough, you should grow a vagina. Those things can take a pounding.”
Sheng Wang
