![]() ![]() Now that she’s also writing contemporary romances for Mills & Boon, she finally knows that a full-time career in writing is closer to reality. Still, it was seven more years and that many novels before she saw her first historical romance published. Once the writing bug bit, an incurable passion consumed her to create stories and people them. That was when she decided to write the type of stories she’d been reading-romances. Though she dabbled with articles, she didn’t fully embrace her dream to write novels until years later, when she was a busy cosmetologist making a name for herself in her own salon. His advice? Pursue the dream, but don’t quit the day job. In her junior year of high school she told her literature teacher she intended to write for a living one day. Her first real writing began with fan fiction, taking favourite TV shows and writing episodes and endings she loved-happily ever after, of course. ![]() To her frustration, her sketches paled in comparison with her captions. As an adolescent she began creating cartoons featuring her dad as the hero, with plots that focused on the misadventures on their family farm, and she stuffed them in the nightly newspaper for him to find. Janette’s artist mother encouraged her yen to write. That gave birth to a deep love for literature, and allowed her to travel to exotic locales-those found between the covers of books. Her parents, both voracious readers, read her the classics when she was a child. For as long as JANETTE KENNY can remember, plots and characters have taken up residence in her head. ![]()
