Shari Anton

Shari Anton's resume lists an impressive string of job titles, from personnel clerk to executive secretary. When she took a creative writing class and found she possessed some talent for writing fiction, she dared to dream of a career that allowed her to work at home, shun panty hose and take unlimited coffee breaks. Determined to write what she loved to read - historical romance - she spent the next few years learning the craft of writing a novel and entering various writing contests, winning first place in several. Emboldened by her success, she submitted her work to agents and publishers. Her persistence paid off in 1997 with the publication of her first book by Harlequin Historicals. Shari has also written historical romances for Grand Central Publishing. Shari and her husband live in Wisconsin, have two grown children, and do their best to spoil their grandchildren. Every chance they get, they pack the saddlebags on their Harleys and hit the road.
