Abalard 










I've been writing and selling erotic stories for longer than I care to admit under the pseudonyms Barrie Abalard, Belle, and Miss Lee. You can find my books on Amazon and many of the other usual places.
Being of a certain age means I've done a lot of shit in my life, notably years of radio and technical writing. I also did short stints as a taxi driver, clerical chartist for the Boston Federal Reserve Bank, and temporary office worker for over half a dozen companies. Never mind what else I've done.
A good story with quirky characters turns me on. Besides reading, I enjoy being around my family and our cats, singing, creating new recipes, taking solitary road trips, and hanging with friends. I'm hopelessly addicted to a number of television shows, including Burn Notice, Covert Affairs (Christopher Gorham, yum!), The Closer, Rizzoli & Isles, White Collar, and the show that never fails to make me laugh with its word play and off-the-wall cultural references, Psych. I write comic romance under my real name, and my first release, Cover Me, is now available.
I'm married, with a grown child who's married, and as of this writing, I live in the Middle Atlantic area. (This may change soon.) I believe that a woman should have a past that's juicy enough to bring a blush to her descendents' faces. Not that I'm going to tell it here, mind you, and not that I'm old…
