  3. Lucky In Love by Karina Gioertz - 2012-10-13 18:47:03-04
    Although Karina Gioertz has been writing for most of her life, it never quite registered with her as something out of the ordinary or worth pursuing, because it was so closely connected to who she was. It wasn't until she became a stay at home mom and finally took the time to write an entire book from beginning to end, that she understood what all of those ideas she had been jotting down all those years were really for. Since then, she has writtern several books, including Country Girls, Lucky In Love and Welcome To The Half Orphan Club. While writing and motherhood have become her main focus over the years, she also enjoys many other creative activities such as painting and photography. Most sunny days she can be found in her courtyard working feverishly at painting and refurbishing old furniture...that is, of course, only if it wasn't a suitable day to spend at the beach ;) Karina resides in sunny Florida with her family and two dogs.

    Doranna responded to all early injunctions to "put down that book/notebook and go outside and play" by climbing trees to read & write.

But after all that, mostly she still prefers to hang around outside with the animals. 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.
