Hi, I'm SJ. A coffee addict, lover of chocolate and drinker of good red wines. I'm a lost soul and a hopeless romantic. Reading and writing are necessary parts of who I am. Though perhaps not as necessary as coffee! I can drink coffee without writing, but I can't write without coffee.

S.J. McCoy liked an answer from Robyn Carr: I want to know why you and other authors feel it necessary to use the "f" word in your writing. Other authors that I read don't use it and I thoroughly enjoy their books more because of that fact. I can't speak for all authors, but I certainly don't find it necessary to use curse words because they're curse words. I work very, very hard to write fiction for adults that is realistic and vivid. That means some characters who, if you met them on See Robyn’s answer. Robyn Carr

“To me, if someone is a true friend, it doesn’t matter how often you see them, or even how often you talk. What matters is that when you do see each other, nothing has changed. You’ve got news to catch up on, but you’re still the same people. You still love each other.” Carter”
