I was definitely meant to be a young adult author, and I love it - I'm here to stay!
From Simone Elkeles
Everyone who has ever met me for at least five minutes knows I'm a really funny person. I love to laugh and to make people laugh, so writing comedy comes naturally to me.
Two dads have sent me letters that said my books changed their daughters' lives. I send them packages with T-shirts and posters because, come on... that's the coolest.
Football players are misunderstood. They aren't the dumb jocks people think they are.
Romance novels are my favorite books to read. I write young adult romances, and am so happy to be promoting this wonderful genre.
For my 'Perfect Chemistry' series, I did movie-style book trailers, and my fans went crazy for them.
When I write, it's like watching a movie in my head.
I like to write books that touch my heart. I want to entertain, and I love to entertain myself.
I get a lot of mail from boys in detention centers, including one from a center where they only had a few copies of my novel. They had a deal with each other that they'd read a couple of chapters and then slide it under the door to the next guy. I think that's very cool.
I tried writing adult romances, but it just didn't fit my voice.
