Joan Reeves


Biography

Hello! I'm Joan Reeves!

I write funny, sexy, romances because I think the world needs more love and laughter. And passion! And committed relationships! If you want to read about two people who, against all odds, discover that they are made for each other, then I'm your girl!

TOP 10 REASONS TO BUY A BOOK BY JOAN REEVES

10. Joan Reeves writes funny! Duh! *g*

9. Joan Reeves writes sexy! Another Duh! *g*

8. Joan Reeves is an overnight success, and it only took her 25 years to be proclaimed as one!

7. Joan Reeves writes books that are like a "little vacation between the covers of a book."

6. Joan Reeves has a daughter getting married next spring. She can use the bucks. Seriously, do you know how much weddings cost?

5. Joan Reeves believes in the Weed Whacker Theory of Success. "Life is a big field of weeds. In the center of this giant patch of weeds is something we want--something called success. We're all on paths that resemble the spokes of a wheel, trying to get to the hub. Some of us have machetes, some have riding lawn mowers." Me? I'm armed with a rusty pocket knife. Or so it seems. I need all the help I can get. Buy my book! Pretty please?

4. Joan Reeves is basically lazy. If you don't buy her books, she'll stop writing and while away the hours reading her competitors' books, watching WHAT NOT TO WEAR (she could be a poster girl), cheesy sci fi movies, BUFFY reruns, and THE CLOSER--just to name a few of her TV addictions. Then she'll gain 50 pounds from eating Ding Dongs (required snack of The Closer), mope around the house complaining that she's fat, spend all her remaining book sale money on a new wardrobe, refuse to wear the new clothes because they're ugly, join a nudist colony, and get expelled because she'll do nothing but gripe and moan all day and who wants to see a naked fat woman complaining about how she could have been a contender?

3. Joan Reeves writes stories that will make you feel good.

2. Joan Reeves needs a new pair of shoes. Some of those really cute round-toe Mary Jane's at DSW and maybe a pair of gold evening shoes because they're so darn sexy. But, she can't support her shoe addiction without book sales.

1. Joan Reeves writes stories that will leave you with a smile on your face.

What makes me different as a writer? Though we are all different on the outside, on the inside, we all share the same human desires and emotions. My job as a writer is to appeal to those human emotions. I sometimes think professional writers do this well because, as F. Scott Fitzgerald pointed out, "A writer isn't just one person. He (she) is a whole lot of people trying to be one person."

Thank you for your consideration! In closing, I leave you with my Vision Statement, wise words by which I live.

"It's never too late to live happily ever after."

Thank you for your consideration! Happy Reading and Best Wishes!
Joan Reeves
