As a...Tara, A Facebook Affair looks so interesting! As a person with a disability (I have Spina Bifida) I wish there were more books out there featuring heroes or heroines with disabilities they wouldn't magically be cured of by the last page.<br /><br />I wish there were more romances with disabled characters in particular. I can and do enjoy romances with "normal" characters. Because, of course, that's what's out there. I wouldn't be much of a reader if I didn't. But, in books, I would like to see people like me have their happily ever after.Tawnya Peltonenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15477420127597976207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2896823612522777613.post-20195352211671248992012-06-19T16:27:46.307-04:002012-06-19T16:27:46.307-04:00Thank you for your lovely comments. :)Thank you for your lovely comments. :)Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11015131255166542986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2896823612522777613.post-65306997018678133082012-06-17T18:26:54.018-04:002012-06-17T18:26:54.018-04:00Hi Tara!

Something I can seriously relate to. It draws me in with a feeling of familiarity. Sometimes of course, you need a change from who you are and it's those books that I am swayed to because I am looking to be anyone but me. I don't know about you, but sometimes I picture the heroine as myself as I'm reading. I'm looking for that escape. The entire Fallen Series by Lauren Kate just pulled me in every emotional direction. LOVE IT! And of course The Twilight Saga, just sank into my soul. Again, when I'm writing, you can always find bits and pieces of myself here and there in the characters. One particular book I wrote, releasing this coming March, The Purple Heart, bares my entire soul throughout the pages.Anna Christiehttp://www.authorannachristie.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2896823612522777613.post-46950282810344438082012-06-17T02:09:39.869-04:002012-06-17T02:09:39.869-04:00Thank you, DJ.

Even if someone dosen't have a disability life can be cruel for any number of reasons. But love can and does prevail. I also like that you've had such a varied background. Pretty impressive base to draw from when writing.DJ Frazierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06295229698789372378noreply@blogger.com
