In case I haven't mentioned this: geni.us/HockeyHallow...
We’re celebrating with hockey romances at a costume party. Here’s the twist. Authors were assigned a trope and a costume after they agreed to participate.
Will the results be frightful or delightful?

Today's Author April question was favourite banned book. Seeing the Hunger Games and 1984 at the top of the list gave me a pretty good idea what kind of groups want to ban those.

My FMC is a luthier, which is a word not as widely understood as I thought it was. Do you know what that is?

Today's Author April question was about the weirdest place you've written. The weirdest I have proof of is this one, writing on a window ledge in a laundromat in Le Marin, Martinique. What's your weird work space?

Of course. But can you tell? Do you think you know when an author includes something from their own lived experience?

Tuesday teaser from Goalie Interference. Goober, in the photo, was not part of the original story as planned, but inserted herself and became supporting actress of the story. #hockeyromance #romancelandia #tuesdayteaser
Light blue background with picture of ginger long haired cat. Over top, text: “What happened then?” “Cash came back, ready to pack up for another trip. I wasn’t there, but the end result was that she left, and the cat didn’t.” He looked at Goober again. “He didn’t try to send the cat back?” “He had a flight in the morning.” “So you were stuck with the cat?” I shrugged. “I couldn’t let it starve."

I've been writing stories in my head as long as I can remember. Started writing them down in elementary school. My first published book, however, was in 2018. Yes, there are a lot of stories and snippets that happened before 2018.

First step in Author April 2025 is an introduction. So if you don't know me, I'm Canadian, left on our sailboat a few years ago and cruised the Caribbean (best way to get through Covid) while write romance novels. Now we're looking for our next adventure...France. #authorapril2025
Purple and grey background. Picture of me, and text, about me: Proud Canadian writing hockey romance in the Caribbean. I've published with Harlequin, Sarina Bowen and now for myself. After five years living on a sailboat, we're ready for our next adventure. Kim Findlay Picture of hockey Stay in touch: www.kimfindlay.ca
