My name is R.K. Charron.
I am an as-yet-unpublished writer and voracious reader.
I'm very honored to be a part of Paranormal Romantics.
I'm very honored to be a part of Paranormal Romantics.
I live in a small city where all Fantasy books are in one section, so it wasn't until I was on Twitter, nearly a year ago, that I discovered there were sub-genres like Urban Fantasy and Paranormal Romance. I was surprised & pleased that three of my favorite authors were Paranormal Romance:
I love that Paranormal Romance differs from Urban Fantasy in that it has a Happy-Ever-After ending and that it has it's own award: The Paranormal Excellence Award for Romantic Literature which is the readers' choice award. Plus, having it's own category makes it so much easier finding new authors and books!
I look forward to being here every Thursday, sharing all things Paranormal Romance.
I was nervous about this first post, because I wanted to do justice to one of my favorite blogs, but I think it went well, don't you?

You're not alone in being nervous about putting your thoughts out there! Well done getting your first post under your belt.
Congrats, honey!

We must be distant neighbors. lol I didn't begin reading romance/fantasy/paranormals until about two years ago. (Before that I was all about the hard crime novels.)
To me, urban fantasy has a very distinct sound in my head while I'm reading. Paranormal romance is also very distinctive. I have never considered them the same thing, or considered them the same thing as fantasy.
I think it comes from showing up so late on the scene, or maybe (most likely) I'm just odd like that. ;)
Great first post. I know you'll love it at PR. You're in some great company.
Hi :)
Yes very nice post, you did well
Hey! Welcome! We are so thrilled to have you here! I discovered Paranormal Romance on vacation...sort of. LOL. I always read Romance (huge Nora Roberts fan) and I loved it in particular when she'd pull out what i thought of as the 'supernatural' but then I ran out of reading material on a beach and the store had Christine Feehan. I thought WHAT IS THIS? And I was hooked. Sherrilyn Kenyon followed immediately. So glad to have you with us! Hope the writing is going well!

Definitely a great post!
I'd say it went very well! *wink*
Hi RK, welcome to PR. You're a great addition to a cast of wonderful, amazing ladies!
Speaking of paranormal romance, I wasn't exactly into it (I did read Christopher Pike as a teen) but it's only when I met my hubby, who's into paranormal movies, that I discovered the genre really and then delved into my preferred medium - Books!
Looking forward to seeing you here now!
Hugs
Go RK! Go RK! Looking forward to Thursdays!
What genre are you writing? Paranormal? Let us know! Good luck!
Welcome to the blog. :-)
Hi RK,
Great post! I, too, am a huge fan of the paranormal. Christine Feehan was my first paranormal read, in fact... Vamps who can shapeshift, sweet!
Good luck with the posting, I can't wait to read more. :)
Welcome to PR, it's great to have you here. Feehan and Kenyon are two of my favs!
I have to say that 'Waking the Witch' cover has my attention. Welcome to Paranormal Romantics RK! I see the party has already started.
I still read primarily space opera and urban fantasy but I do have a Feehan book sitting on my TBR pile.
Great job, R.K.!I look forward to hearing what you have to say on Thursdays. Congrats on the new gig!
Great post! Look forward to more ;o)
Hey RK! Congrats! Great post! =)))
I'm glad you're posting. I've seen your name at many of the blogs. I only discovered paranormal and urban fantasy last year. My daughter came up with several library books and said you need to read these - Karen Marie Moning's Fever series. I went on to read Mary Janice Davidson's Betsy series. Now I subscribe to lots of blogs and have found many more authors and series.
Thank you SO much for all the comments! They mean a lot to me.

Congrats on starting this Thursday column. Have fun.
Thank you Eleni!
