Love to Read Romance With A Twist?

About Me

Cool MySpace stuff Pimp MySpace


Hello to my favorite people...readers!

My name is Christine London.

I write about women in the midst ofliving their exciting productive lives;they don’t need a man, but the rightone certainly provides a challenge andthe enrichment that only an equal cansupply. If he’s a hot Brit, well then,all the better.

I hope you find my stories asprovocative as the characters thatinhabit them. If you have half the funreading them that I’ve had in thewriting---well, let me just say this,we ought, the lot of us, to be in jail.

Come visit me at www.christinelondon.com

I'd love to hear from you and am readyto talk!

My first published book, SunninghillSnow, premiered through PhazePublishing ( Phaze.com ) in June of 2007as an eBook. Keep tabs on my website,or here to find out the latest as Ibravely forge into the world ofpublication. Three others are slatedfor release through Phaze.com in 2008:Soul In His Eyes (March 31st), AgainstThe Current (May) and Before You SayGoodbye (Sept). My print publisher has recently closed its doors so I will be looking for a new home for the two books that were scheduled to be released in 2009.Shadows Steal the Light andHog Wild. More to come onthat front, as well. You can read shortblurbs and/or excerpts from each on mywebsite www.christinelondon.com .

My Interests

I live on the edge of the beautiful Palos Verdes Peninsula in Southern California one mile from the beach. Best times are spent writing, reading, running, working out, singing in my jazz sextet and/or baking yummy delectibles. Summers are for exploring the many fascinating destinations in the United Kingdom---my "adopted" home. Thanks to British friends, I have the inside track on some of the best finds the UK has to offer.

I'd like to meet:

My Readers!

You are members of the largest group of fiction readers in the nation. All other genres combined don't come close. You are educated, intelligent and positive. Just like romance itself, you look to a bright future. You are who we writers spend hours pouring over our computers to entertain, educate and animate. In turn, you are filled, going on to uplift and inspire others. A real Win-Win situation, if ever there was one.
I look forward to meeting as many of you as possible...at booksignings, airports, conventions, and right here, online.

I'm ready to talk! BTW Come learn more about me...free reads and photos at www.christinelondon.com .


Music:

Almost everything!
Love the classics - Streisand, Manilow, Sinatra, Mathas, Beatles, Aerosmith, Cat Stevens, Jack Johnson, Queen, Mozart's choral pieces ahh...Darren Hayes!!

Shakespeare In Love, Somewhere In Time, The Notebook, As Good As It Gets, Joel Schumacher's Phantom of the Opera, Timeline, Dear Frankie, Somethings Gotta Give, While You Were Sleeping, Return To Me, Kate & Leopold, Sound Of Music,One More Kiss, Fifty First Dates, Don Juan DeMarco, Under the Tuscan Sun, Cold Comfort Farm....are we seeing a pattern here? Could It be Romance?

Television:

Don't watch much. Do like "Lost" It is well written and acted. The oldies, again...Seinfeld, Old Carol Burnett Show, Dick Van Dyke, Original Star Trek and TNG, Miniseries: Thornbirds, Shogun, Roots, The Jury (A BBC Production) The Mr. Bean Show (BBC, again), Monty Python

Too many to mention. Love the "Outlander" series by Diana Gabaldon. Nora Roberts for classic romance. Shelley Bradley for visceral, passionate love scenes, A good Phaze Heatsheet for spicy erotica. Inspirational?...New Testament parables, M.Scott Peck, Steven Covey, John Bradshaw.

Heroes:

The non-violent revolutionaries: Jesus, Ghandi, Martin Luther King, JR. Jimmy Carter for using post-presidency to the best advantage. Oprah for uplifting women in the media.
