Where to begin? Hi,
I’m Janet Lane Walters and I’ve been
writing for a very long time. My first sale was a short story published in
1968. I’ve gone on to have more sort stories published and when the market
dried up, I moved to writing novels. Actually a rejected story set me off. An
editor wrote “This sounds like the synopsis for a novel. Learning how to write
novels took several years. The first one I wrote was published after 16
rejections with many suggestions from editors and making revisions, the
seventeenth time the novel was purchased. That was in 1972. Also had several
poems published and four non-fiction books.
Calling myself an eclectic writer, there’s a tendency to
dabble a bit in my writing. There are contemporary romances, paranormal
romances, alternate world romances, some that combine history with the present
day, more reincarnation than time travel. Also among the mix are cozy
mysteries, one medical suspense. Also there are two YA series, one for teens
and one for a bit younger age written under J. L. Walters for four of them. I
tend to jump around when I’m writing and sometimes a series is shelved for a
time when a new idea pops into my wild imagination.

My home is in the scenic Hudson Valley
about thirty miles from NYC, on the west bank of the river. I just realized the
house is 100 years old and has changed much since we bought it about forty
years ago. I can see the river from the upstairs window in the winter when
there are no leaves on the trees. Married to the same man for 50 plus years but
recently a widow. There are four children, the youngest daughter is an adopted
black girl. The children have given me seven grandchildren. Four are black and
three are Chinese. The eclectic sort of runs over into the family.
I’ve had many hobbies in the past including knitting,
needlepoint, cookie baking, Yoga, composing music and Astrology. Of course
there’s reading. That’s been my hobby since I was three and received my first
library card. My grandfather taught me how to read.
