______________________________________

Howdy!  Welcome to the website of Pamela Tracy (me!)  I'm an award-winning author (brag much?) who lives with a husband (who claims to be the inspiration for most of my romance novel heroes) and an nineteen-year-old son (who definitely is the interference of most of my writing time and who calls me annoying).  

The 19-year-old is taller than me now: How did that happen?

I was raised in Omaha, Nebraska, and started writing at a young age (a series of romances starring David Cassidy as the hero who sometimes got pushed aside by Bobby Sherman <sigh>)

While earning a degree in Journalism at Texas Tech University (Can't stay in Nebraska forever), I picked up my pen (This time it was an electric typewriter) and started writing science fiction (What can I say, I had a crush on Kurt Vonnegut)

Being adventurous, I wound up in Phoenix, Arizona, and eventually purchased a computer.

First published in 1999 (Thank you, Barbour Publishing and most especially Rebecca Germany), I'm currently traveling toward the 40th book published (Mostly contemporary romance, but a lot of suspense and even historical sprinkled in plus two devotionals: Harlequin, Barbour, Guideposts, Kensington, Annie's.).

Yes, I've hit the million copies sold mark.

Something they don't tell you... 

selling that many copies does not mean making that much money.

Career highlights:

1)  Signing with agent Steve Laube

2) I earned a CAROL Award (from the Amerian Chistian Fiction Writers.  If you can enlarge the plaque Steve and I are holding, it says Book of the Year) for my suspense Broken Lullaby.

3) My suspense Pursuit of Justice was both a RITA and CAROL finalist.

4) For a few days, my devotional Promises and Prayers for Teachers was on the Christian Bestseller list and resided after Rick Warren's The Purpose-Driven Life.

5) The anthology Mistletoe Kisses enabled me to add USA Bestselling Author to my bio.

Author Adventures:

1) Five of my six bridemaids were romance authors.

                                    

                                                            Maid of Honor: Harlequin author Cathy McDavid

Bridemaids:  Aspiring author Patricia Osback, Kensington author Allison Hentges, Harlequin Author Stacy Connelly, Sister Roxanne Gould

2) I've met Sue Grafton, Ray Bradbury, Nora Roberts, Clive Cussler, and Francine Rivers (and more)

                                                                   <Squeeee!> Clive Cussler and me.

3)  I've been on Good Morning Arizona and have had a feature story in the Arizona Republic.
