For award winning author, Carol Malone, living with passion means discovering what you’re good at and doing what you love. Happiest when she’s painting word pictures, her passion is cranking out sweet, tender romance stories in the historical, suspense, sports, and pulp-esk Nóir genres.
Carol’s contemporary story, “The Garden,” about a mother of a drug addicted son, was honored in the Moorpark Community College’s literary magazine, the Moorpark Review in 2012. A year later, her novel, “Ladies Night,” a Fight-Card boxing romance novel—think the “Sweet Science” of fisticuffs in Los Angeles, 1954, meets young love, the mob, and murder—was ePubbed under the Fight-Card Series on Amazon. Following that up is her “Ladies Night Christmas,” and a sweet historical romance novella, “Summer Holiday” all available on Amazon.
Carol is the V.P. of the Romance Writer’s of America® online Outreach Romance Writer’s of America. She is the Facebook Manager for the From The Heart Romance Writer’s of America, and is the Newsletter Editor and Social Media Manager for her local county’s writing group, the Ventura County Writers Club.
Carol lives with her sweetheart, Tim, married nearly thirty-four years in sunny Ventura County, sometimes using her community as the setting for many of her novels. For pleasure and research, she reads an average of 120 novels per year. At night you’ll find her reading a novel at the same time she is watching TV, perferring dance-and-singing reality shows—dreaming she’s a graceful dancer like those tangoing across the TV screen, and wishing she had continued her opera training after college. At the moment, she is content to sing in the church choir at her local congregation of the LDS (Mormon) church. A fan of The Food Network, Carol indulges in her passions for cooking gourmet meals, and eating too much chocolate. But seriously, can you eat too much chocolate?
