The Writer's Chatroom


Chat with Doranna Durgin
Sunday, November 23, 2008

Doranna Durgin responded to all early injunctions to "put down that book/notebook and go outside to play" by climbing trees to read & write. Such quirkiness of spirit has led to an eclectic publishing journey, spanning genres and form over 25 novels to include mystery, SF/F, action-romance, paranormal, franchise, and a slew of essays and short stories.

But after all that, mostly she still prefers to hang around outside her northern Arizona home with the animals, riding dressage on her Lipizzan and training for performance sports with the dogs. She doesn't believe so much in mastering the beast within, but in channeling its power. For good or bad has yet to be decided...

You can find her online at www.doranna.net, where she keeps a collection of gorgeous high desert sunsets and scoops about new projects, lots of silly photos, and contact info.
==================

This year has been especially busy, with a special edition release of Dun Lady's Jess--Doranna's first & award-winning novel--in a French flap trade paperback with gorgeous packaging and artwork (she admits some bias here) in April, followed by the July appearance of Hidden Steel. This book was once slated to be a February '07 release...and then the line was discontinued, and the final month of publication was...January '07. So Hidden Steel found a new home with Five Star Expressions.

With September came the launch of the new Ghost Whisperer tie-in books, which Doranna kicks off with Revenge; in December, the second of the Dale Kinsall series (known to fans as the Dale & Sully books, for Dale and his Beagle Sully) hits the scene. And '09 brings two Silhouette Nocturnes, an online Nocturne novella, and the launch of a brand new series with Tor, The Reckoners.

In her spare time, Doranna...

Oh wait. She has no spare time.
====================
