Author Bio:
Marie Rydzynski
was born on March 28 in West Germany to Polish parents. She moved to America at
the age of four. For an entire year, Marie and her family explored the eastern
half of the country before finally settling in New York.
Marie swears
she was born writing, "which must have made the delivery especially hard
for my mother." From an early age, Marie's parents would find her watching
television or tucked away in some private place, writing at a furious pace.
"Initially, I began writing myself into my favourite shows. I was a
detective on '77 Sunset Strip,' the missing Cartwright sibling they never
talked about on 'Bonanza' and the 'Girl from U.N.C.L.E.' before there was a
'Girl from U.N.C.L.E.,' not to mention an active participant in the serialized
stories of 'The Mickey Mouse Club.'" Marie began to write her first romance
novel when she was 11 years old, although she claims that, at the time, she
didn't even realize it was a romance! She scribbled off and on, while dreaming
of a career as an actress.
Marie was only
14 when she first laid eyes on the man she would marry, truly her first love,
Charles Ferrarella. During her days at Queens College, New York, acting started
to lose its glamour as Marie spent more and more time writing. After receiving
her English degree, specialising in Shakespearean comedy, Marie and her family
moved to Southern California, where she still resides today.
After an
interminable seven weeks apart, Charles decided he couldn't live without her
and came out to California to marry his childhood sweetheart. Ever practical,
Marie was married in a wash-and-wear wedding dress that she sewed herself,
appliqués and all. "'Be prepared' has always been my motto,"the
author jokes. This motto has been stretched considerably by her two children,
Nikky and Jessi, "but basically, it still applies," she says.
In November of
1981, she sold her first novel for Harlequin. Marie, who now has written over
150 novels, has one goal: to entertain, to make people laugh and feel good.
"That's what makes me happy," she confesses. "That, and a really
good romantic evening with my husband." She's keeping her fingers crossed
that her reader's enjoy reading her books as much as she enjoyed writing them.
