RedRoseAuthors Welcome Jane Beckenham

Author Jane Beckenham found literature at a young age. In books she discovered dreams and hope, stories that inspired in her a love of romance, and travel. Years later, after a blind date, Jane found her own true love and married eleven months later. Life has been a series of ‘dreams’ for Jane. Believing that she can ‘just do it’. Dreaming to learn to walk again after spending years in and out of hospital. Dreaming of raising a family and subsequently flying to Russia to bring home her two adopted daughters. And of course, dreaming of writing. With her family growing up, life, apart from scraping every moment she can at the computer, is a round of playing mum's taxi service, all the while wondering what her hero and heroine are up to behind her back! Writing is Jane’s addiction - and it sure beats housework. Jane is a member of the Romance Writers of NZ and RWA (America). She teaches creative writing and is always doubly thrilled when her students have success. Over the last few years Jane has judged for RWNZ, plus NTRWA and says that it is always great to read others’ work, and to be able to encourage them and of course learn from other writers. Jane is presently writing across the genres, with both contemporary and historical/time travel novels in print. But what she likes the most is a sassy heroine and a true blue hunky hero.
