IT'S ALL IN THE SETTING IN MY BOOK!!

IT’S ALL IN THE SETTING OF THE BOOK!!
A Prescription for Love - Leeanne Marie Stephenson
Why did you pick the setting you used in your story? I'm not looking for -- "because I live there". I want you to dig deep and tell usWhy you chose that particular setting?

I chose Michigan and the community I worked in as a Registered Nurse. I take the reader on a journey back into the 1970's at Blodgett Hospital where I began my own career as a nurse. All the places in Michigan that I write about, I have visited, so I have a first hand knowledge of their beauty and significance!

What does the setting add to the story?

Since my story is a medical romance, it depicts the heart of the medical community in Michigan. it also takes the reader into a world of wealth and prestige in the varios wealthy areas of Michigan.

Could you write the same story in a different setting?

I could write the story in another hospital setting.Why or why couldn't you use a different setting?A different setting would be difficult, because the personlity of the setting wouldn't come through since I never experienced the setting myself. In particular, Michigan's Mackinac Island is such a glamorous romantic setting, it couldn't possibly be repaced in my story!

Did you use a real place as a basis for your setting?

Every place I wrote about existed back in the 1970's, and I have been to all these places.

Is there anything else about your setting that we need to know? Feel free to share.

This romantic journey highlights Grand Rapids, East Grand Rapids and the beautiful historical Mackinac Island of Michigan. The details of the setting make you feel as though you are right there with the characters. You willparticularly fall in love with the romantic Mackinac Isalnd! It's a love story in a setting you don't want to miss!

RECOVERING!!

Just wanted to share that I have had the stomach virus for a week!! I'm just now starting to feel better, and am trying to recover. It gets scary because I need to stay hydrated for my transplanted kidney function, and I lost a lot of fluid. Then, being a diabetic,my blood sugar kept dropping because I couldn't keep any thing down. I was miserable. Anyways, I wanted to know if anyone else has had this bug. It lasts 7 days. My husband has been wonderful caring for me! I am doing an interview on the hero in my book, which I will be posting as soon as I get better. May there always be love in your lives! Leeanne ♥

MY ROMANTIC VALENTINE GIFT FROM MY WONDERFUL HUSBAND!!

MY ROMANTIC VALENTINE GIFT FROM MY WONDERFUL HUSBAND!!
I wanted to tell you all about what a romantic wonderful man my husband is. Remember that he is the one who inspired me to write my passionate, sensual romance novel. It started with me reminiscing about my childhood, when I came down with diabetes. Back then, they didn't have diet pop, so I was left to drink only water. Then they came out with fizzies! They are flavored tablets that you plop into a glass of water. They fizz up and turn the water into a delicious drink! I loved these as a child, but they took them off the market because the artificial sweetener in them was causing cancer in rats. I really missed them. My wonderful husband listened to my story, and went about tracking the fizzies down. He presented tthem to me on Valentine's day. I can't tell you all how much this meant to me! It was so thought ful. He also gave me a very romantic card, that I would like to share with you. It states, "For my wife, my lover, my partner, I've come to cherish so many special things about you, Your smile, your reassuring touch, the way you understandme. And I want you to know especially today that I'll always be there for you, I'll always believe in us!" This comes from a marriage of 31 years. Can you see why he was my inspiration for Dr. Travis Anderson in my book!! I invite you to please visit my web site and learn more about Travis and my romance novel. Thank you, Leeanne.
