Regina Scott started writing novels in the third grade. Thankfully for
literature as we know it, she didn't actually sell her first novel until
she had learned a bit more about writing such as vocabulary, sentence
structure, and plot. After numerous short stories and articles in magazines
and trade journals, she got serious about her novel writing. The
Unflappable Miss Fairchild was her first novel to be published (March
1998). Additional Regency romances quickly followed. Ms. Scott is
currently under contract with Kensington Publishers in New York for her
first long historical romances, Starstruck and Perfection, both due out in
2003.
Regina Scott and her husband are the parents of two preteen boys. They
reside in the Tri-Cities of southeast Washington State. Born in 1959 and
raised in the Seattle area, Regina Scott is a graduate of the University of
Washington. She comes by her writing talent naturally--both her parents are
excellent writers in their vocations as teacher and electrical technician.
Her mother envisioned the plot for "Sweeter Than Candy," the novella which
was written as a tribute to her.
Regina Scott is a decent fencer; owns a historical, fantasy, and science
fiction costume collection that currently takes up over a third of her
large closet; and has been known to impersonate an independent consultant
specializing in risk communication.
