About/Contact


My great passions have always included reading and writing. When not engaged in one of those pastimes, I enjoy baking, walks, and time spent with friends and family.

I grew up in a small town and moved to L.A. after college. Adventures in that strange urban terrain inspired me to write my first novel, Dating Maggie.

As a kid, I have a vague recollection of creating “magazines” with a pencil and ruled notebook paper. I made family members buy copies for a quarter. I’ve been writing a variety of things since then: marketing copy, plays, short films, and online content.

Virginia Woolf would be proud that I’m now able to write in a room of my own under the clouds of the Pacific Northwest. Sometimes my husband and son pop in to check on me.

P.S. I also write books under my real name: Melissa Uhles.

Christine Hartmann On Writing & Wild Within

I'm happy to welcome author Christine Hartmann to the blog today. Her new release, a romantic suspense, Wild Within has an intriguing premise.  She was kind enough to answer a few questions about her writing life.  Her book is now available on Amazon  and Barnes & Noble. What is your process for plotting out your novel? I make a rough outline of the plot. Then I work on the scenes. I love the book Story by Robert McKee. I don’t do it his ideal way, but I have used a lot of the advice in that book. What is your greatest challenge as a writer? Finding the balance between my busy full-time job and my book writing career. I love my job—it’s meaningful and important to me. But so is my book writing. Finding a balance sometimes involves compromises, and it’s usually the book writing that has to compromise. Do you write in one genre or multiple genres? Why? I write in multiple genres. My first book was a memoir, So Far Away: A Daughter’s Memoir of Life, ...
