I have been seriously writing romance novels for over twenty-five years but it took me awhile to get serious about publishing them. Now I am the ahem, bestselling [<–see what I did there? 😉 ] author of several romance novels.
I also branched out into a genre-defying screwball fantasy series called Grinding Reality (inspired by my many years working as a coffee store barista) written under the pen name AJ Tillock. Books #1 and #2 are The Forbidden Bean and Cool Beans.
When not writing fiction, Dr. Seuss-like poetry or song lyrics, you might find me enjoying a cup of coffee, a glass of wine, reading, bicycling, walking, or playing tennis badly.
In April 2018, after 20 or so years of talking about it, my BFF and I took a trip to Paris.
I’m still married to my first husband and have two adorable children.
I am a member of Lakeland Writers, Sidestreet Coffee & Quill, Novelists, Inc., and Florida Writers Association and am available for book signing events, personal appearances and speaking engagements. For bookings, please contact me at barb@barbmeyers.com or through the form below.
