Profile Information

About Me:: I live in the southeast corner of Colorado where the rain is Tess, the fire's Joe, and they call the wind Mariah. The pet-per-square-footage in my house borders over-crowding and my husband reminds me of this every time a new critter arrives. I like coffee, wine, dark chocolate, and cheese pizza (it's the perfect food). In my public life, I'm a mild-mannered high school history and English teacher, but in the dark of night, the insomniac of my alter-ego hovers over my computer to write historical western romances for Cobblestone Press.

Website:: http://www.al-debran.com

Published Novels: At Cobblestone Press (e-pub)
Lonely Places (June 2006)
Gunslingers & Ghostriders (October 2006)
The Comanchero's Bride (September 2007)
In the Cards, The Vampire Oracle: Life (June 2008)

Favourite Books: Clive Cussler's Dirk Pitt novels, Louis L'Amour, Mists of Avalon, Gone with the Wind, Shakespeare, Dr. Zhivago, Lord of the Rings; the Hobbit, anything ancient Greece (especially the Battle of Thermopylae); War and Peace; Count of Monte Cristo; Les Miserables

Hello and introduction

Holiday Greetings from cold and snowy southeastern Colorado. Thank you, Anne Whitfield, for creating this site for networking about historical fiction. A little more about me...I grew up on a cattle/horse ranch, I spent years following the amateur rodeo circuit, raced thoroughbred horses, went to grad school, did time as a special education administrator, and now I work part-time to support my writing habit. The American west from 1830's to 1915-ish is the comfort zone of my writing time peri

I'm not a fan of first person either and it seems so popular lately. I resepect it well done. I know 300 wasn't perfect in the way of story telling...the bodies were, that was enough. But it along with Gladiator and HBO Rome have certainly brought ancient historicals out.
Well, take care.
