A note from Julie: I am an eclectic reader which guides my writing. Fantasy, romance, action adventure, political intrigue all grace my bookshelves. Two of my favorite subjects are wildlife and dragons. Hence, the creation of ZEBRA and DRAGON DANCER. However, I find myself drawn to other characters and settings. If the story is strong enough, it sticks; and I find myself returning to its pages and developing the idea into a work in progress. If it appears that I have genre ADD, I plead guilty and blame it all on Diana Gabaldon, Eric Lustbader, Robert Ludlum, Tom Clancy, Terry Goodkind, Robert Jordan, Clive Cussler, and Nora Roberts. So see, it's absolutely not my fault.
