/Oregon News Articles/ - HILLSBORO, OR, April 24, 2007 - Stop on over at Night Owl Romance and read the new interview of USA Today's Bestselling author - Julie Kenner - Romance Novel Writer

Hello Julie,

The girls of Night Owl Romance are pleased that you have granted us an interview

We would love to get to know you-

Could you please start by telling us a little about yourself?

Sure! My name is Julie Kenner, and I write all across the board. I was born in California, moved almost immediately to Texas, and grew up here in the Lone Star State. I've always wanted to be a writer, but came at it in a convoluted manner, via a career in law.

Here's my current bio, just to give you the nitty gritty run-down: National bestselling author Julie Kenner's first book hit the stores in February of 2000, and she's been on the go ever since, with over twenty books to her credit. Her books have hit lists as varied as USA Today, Waldenbooks, Barnes & Noble, and Locus Magazine. Julie is also a two-time RITA finalist, the winner of Romantic Times' Reviewer's Choice Award for Best Contemporary Paranormal of 2001, the winner of the Reviewers International Organization's award for best romantic suspense of 2004 and best paranormal of 2005, and the winner of the National Readers' Choice Award for best mainstream book of 2005. She writes a range of stories including sexy and quirky romances, young adult novels, chick lit suspense and paranormal mommy lit. Her foray into the latter, Carpe Demon: Adventures of a Demon-Hunting Soccer Mom, was selected as a Booksense Summer Paperback Pick for 2005, was a Target Breakout Book, was a Barnes & Noble Number One SFF/Fantasy bestseller for seven weeks, and is in development as a feature film with Warner Brothers and 1492 Pictures. The sequel, California Demon: The Secret Life of a Demon-Hunting Soccer Mom is currently a finalist for the RITA award. Julie lives in Georgetown with her husband, two daughters, and several cats.

If you could be one of your characters - Who would you be? And why?

Oh dear. That's hard. Because characters, as you know, need ISSUES. They need CONFLICT. They need all the stuff that we crave reading about in books, but would be darned inconvenient and stressful in real life!

Still, if I had to pick, Kate Connor, the heroine of my demon-hunting soccer mom series. She's a mom (and I love being a mom), plus she gets to kick demon ass (and, really, who doesn't want to blow off some steam?) She's funny and a loyal friend and has had a pretty interesting life. So, yeah, I'll go with Kate.

What's your favorite genre to read?

I read anything and everything, but my favorites are probably thrillers and mysteries.
