Blind Ohio author, Chrissy Hartmann, always wanted to be a librarian, but when she lost her eyesight, she did the next best thing. She became a sweet contemporary western romance author. And novels aren't the only thing she writes. She has 2-award winning short stories and has been known to pen a few lines of poetry.
She grew up near Lake Erie and always wondered if they'd survive their sailing excursions on a 36 foot Erikson sailboat, but she did. The rest of her time she spent on her grandparents' horse farm.
Now she spends most of her time writing her novels and editing for Prickle Forrest Books. But when she does get a moment, she's off to the local coffee shop or the library for a change of scenery. But most of the time, she can be found at home tapping away on the keyboard or hanging out with her hubby spinning vinyl records or discussing Star Wars and her black Persian kitten and retired black lab guidedog with her Eagle Scout.
One day, she says she'll grow up, but that won't happen until the Muses decide to leave. In the meantime, she hopes to retire with her hubby somewhere near Lake Erie to write island romances.
And hey, she says "Cowboys can live on tropical islands too, right?"
