Barbara Delinksy Disavows Romance Writing Past

By Jane • Dec 4th, 2006 • Category: Publishing News

In an interview with the Globe, Barbara Delinsky disavows her romance writing past, refusing to discuss it with the interviewer. Nice. Am adding her to the list of Authors Behaving Badly. Come on, Delinsky, you built your career on romance readers. At least acknowledge that they exist. Via HelenKay Dimon’s blog.

I think hero names based on Satan should be banished (i.e., Lucien, Lucifer, Devil, Damien)
- Yes, if I read them one more time, particularly in regency england, I may have to stomp the book into tiny pieces and use the refuse as compost for my garden
- No, why get all het up over a name
- Depends if the story is a paranormal and the hero has some basis in hell, then no. If otherwise, particularly Regency England, then see above choice No. 1
