🎯 Where Should I Start?
ⓘ About Ali McNamara
Even though people believe being an author is a glamorous, exciting job, and it certainly is a tiny percentage of the time. When you are starting a new book, off on some research trip, or getting your picture taken for a magazine or newspaper it is very exciting. However the reality is that much of your time will be spent at a computer wearing comfy clothes; and editing, writing, or despairing at just how bad you believe your writing is that day. “Breakfast at Darcy’s” was a Top Ten Bestseller in Italy. “Step Back in Time” was nominated for Best Romantic Comedy at the Romantic Novelists Association awards in the year 2014. When Ali is not writing, she enjoys reading, people watching, traveling, more often than not accompanied by a good cup of coffee.
