Bill Sanderson

Biography

I am an accountant and a husband and father of four boys.

I grew up in a small town in northern Canada where there were a large number of characters and a constantly changing population. Being able to observe and assess people was an essential skill for small town life.

My mother taught me to read when I was four so she could get the housework done. My father loved to tell stories and taught me how. My wife and sons have taught me the value of love.

While I grew up on a steady diet of science fiction and action adventure, it was my knowledge of small town characters and love of happy endings that steered me in the direction of writing romance.

My wife is still waiting for my first science fiction book and my teens are waiting for a sword and sorcery book. It may be a while.

Smashwords book reviews by Bill Sanderson

  • Edwina on Aug. 28, 2012

    I really liked this book. The characters are somewhat frustrating but the very fact of that frustration means that the author has done what she is supposed to do - she's made me care about the characters. Fear of rejection and intimacy often make careful rational people miss opportunities for love and commitment. I'm looking forward to reading other books by Ms. Strefling.

    Many of our friends are ordained ministers and they all have problems with people separating the person from the collar. It was fun to read and to watch Paul and Martie fall into the same trap of expectations versus reality. Thanks, Peggy, for an enjoyable read.
