Laurie Bishop's Bio

As a child growing up on a dairy farm, Laurie Bishop spent countless hours reading anything she could find—from Greek, Roman, and Norse myths to Robert Frost's poetry. Then she picked up her grandmother's copy of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, which began her love affair with the Regency period. Laurie won the Romance Writers of America's Golden Heart competition for The Best Laid Plans. Today Laurie lives in her native upstate New York. She has a master's degree in human services and counseling and is employed in social work, but her favorite job is collaborating at night with her marvelous cat and writing partner, Tojo.
