Writing What I Want To Read Since 1996.

After years of combing through the dusty back shelves of libraries looking for her elusive, imperfect hero, she started writing her own.

Ruth’s romantic tales are full of wounded heroes: men physically challenged by life, but not defeated. These men overcome the difficulties of amputation, paralysis, or cerebral palsy to find acceptance, happiness, and heroines who love them exactly as they are.

Supercharge Your Website Traffic by Carolyn Choate
“Statistically if you have a product or service that is valuable, then you're going to get yesses to your offer sometimes. Therefore if you make a huge volume of calls, you can get enough clients. It's like you're in a rock garden and one of the rocks has cash underneath. So you're turning over rocks as fast as you can to find that one. You don't worry about the ones that don't have it, you just drop them and keep going.”

“I think life is just a process of settling for less and pretending you never wanted more." - Elizabeth”
Ruth Madison, Whole

“She closed her eyes and enjoyed the feel of the air on her face, cooling the flush on her skin. She loved the sense fall gave that things were changing, but in predictable ways.”
Ruth Madison, (W)hole

“Not all traffic is worth it. Getting a bunch of bots to click on your website isn’t going to actually grow your business long term. And not all services that promise clicks actually deliver. ”
Carolyn Choate, Supercharge Your Website Traffic: Unlock The Secrets To Infinite Website Visitors

“Organic inbound is about placing content in your own area to draw people to you. It’s like making a window display in your store window to entice people to come in. This is about areas you control like your website and social profiles. 
Outbound is more like casting a fishing line while inbound is like putting out traps to catch fish on their own. ”
