At some point I discovered Mills & Boon Romance books and that was pretty much it for me. So, I started to write, by hand at first, scribbling short stories in notebooks which never saw the light of day. To this day I don’t know why, unless it was a natural progression from my never being without a book close by-often several-because books have always been an important part of my life for as far back as I can recall.
Somewhere in between my girls growing up and the grandchildren arriving on the scene, I started writing. Eventually I met my husband, we married and produced two daughters who then grew up and between them presented us with two gorgeous grandsons and one beautiful granddaughter.
So what was I doing twenty years ago before I wrote books? Well, I did the all of the usual things, like growing up and attending school, finishing at secretarial college, which I hated, then spent the next several years wandering aimlessly from job to job. I know it isn’t a great average when compared with some authors but it sounds pretty good to me! Twenty years with almost forty books published or in the pipeline. So, hang on for a minute while I take this huge milestone in. Hi, my name is Michelle Reid and I’ve been writing for Harlequin Mills & Boon for the last twenty years, and the crazy part about it is that I only realised it had been twenty years while updating this page!
