Jean MacIntyre


Biography

I have been writing for about twenty-five years, while working firstly as a Registered Nurse and later as a Farm Insurance Underwriter. My first four novels were mainly for learning purposes and have long since been discarded – something I now regret. One of them was accepted for publication as an audio book, but the company went out of business before it could be processed. That gave me the encouragement I needed to keep on writing. I have since written two romance novellas.
Since retiring, or rather – re-wiring, I have taken up amateur photography and am combining it with writing limericks, to produce photo album books about care for the environment and respect for all life-forms. These are aimed at children.
I live in the beautiful Lanark Highlands of Eastern Ontario with my husband Don, and a very independent cat named Little Bud.
If you read my books, your comments and rating would be most helpful, and appreciated.

  • Incident In San Francisco on Nov. 23, 2011
    star star star
    This is a well-written novel with great descriptions of ranching in California. Would like to have seen more interaction and conversation in the early chapters, but enjoyed the story - especially the suspense at the end. Would make a great movie!
  • A Lifetime of Tomorrows on Dec. 03, 2011

    Good storyline with lots of suspense. I found the different font sizes to be a distraction.
  • Sparks Fly (A fun romance novel about the "magic" of falling in love) on Dec. 13, 2011
    star star star star star
    This is the ultimate in escapism for romantics - fast-paced and humorous, with sparkling conversation. Free of typos or errors - and I love the cover! Definitely five stars.
  • The Interview on Dec. 16, 2011

    A great read - would like to see it as a full length book.
  • Dating A Cougar on Dec. 17, 2011

    This is a great read! I love the way the characters are developed through conversation, and the story unfolds in the same manner. I'm not a big fan of in-your-face erotica - this was more subtle. Also LOVE the cover!

    I really enjoyed this one! Having a story developed through conversation is my kind of writing - and this one delivered. Lots of humour, some drama and, of course, romance. Well done!
