Having resisted the siren call longer than her writer siblings, Lee Taylor finally conceded and wrote her first novel. Soon she had three to share, and as the daughter of an editor it seemed only natural for her to start Periwink Press.

The literal path to her creative space has her stone-hopping a stream and winds through one of the most bewitching forests in the Appalachians. She can be found most mornings before daybreak in her “Yome Sweet Yome” (think “yurt” but so much better!), loving all the tropes, particularly the ones she turns on their heads.

When not writing or hiking, Lee travels the country for a day job she loves and is always on the lookout for an indie bookstore. And if the store is romance only, all the better.
