Anna Paul asked Liz Fielding:

When you tell people that you are a romance book author, how do they react? When I read romance, my peers make fun of me as if romance is silly, but I think many writers include a lot of valuable information in their stories.

Liz Fielding Most people are interest, Paula, but some are rude. One woman took a step back - presumably she thought it might be catching! I do read romance in public and never apologise for it. I once nearly fell off my seat on a train reading one of Jennifer Crusie's category romances because I was laughing so much.
