Katherine Greyle

Pseudonym for author Jade Lee. Katherine Greyle believes that writing is both her greatest joy and her greatest challenge. Writing for her is a passion and a discipline, both hard to sustain for long periods of time. She keeps it lively by switching constantly among genres, from Regencies, through contemporary adventures to fantasy and time travel. Occasionally, she even writes humor articles for Racquetball Magazine. "But all my works include romance," she says, "even if it's the love of the perfect serve." Years ago, someone told Kathy Greyle to write what was in heart. Little did this person know what weirdness lurked within Kathy's twisted soul. Her first novel, Oracle, was a futuristic romance that won numerous awards including a RITA nomination for Best First Novel and PRISM's Best of the Best award! Kathy's next series of books showcase her humor in a historical trilogy beginning with Rules For A Lady, published in January of 2001. Major Wyclyff's Campaign was launched in October and is followed in April 2002 by Miss Woodley's Experiment. As much a star in the historical genre as in paranormal, Kathy's reviews have been excellent. In fact, her favorite hero, Major Wyclyff, even garnered a Romantic Times KISS award! Building on her humorous regencies, Kathy then wrote No Place for a Lady, released in May 2003 which received Kathy's second Romantic Times KISS award! Don't forget to look for Kathy's delightful time travel to the regency era in Almost an Angel coming out from Love Spell in November 2003. And lest she forget her Asian heritage, she recently wrote the hysterical "Dragon for Dinner", a contemporary novella in the acclaimed Playing with Matches anthology from NAL in April 2003. When writing novels and screenplays gets too difficult, Kathy relaxes by rollerblading with her two daughters and playing racquetball at the highest amateur levels.
