Dorice Nelson
Bio: Dorice Nelson began her writing career after an early retirement from teaching and a move to the mountains in upstate New York, where she lives with her attorney husband, also a novelist, a happy-go-lucky mixed-breed dog and two personality-plus cats, all from a local shelter.
Needing an all-encompassing goal in life, she selected writing novels as a likely step to her future, never dreaming anything could be harder than 17 years of teaching school. Boy, was she fooled. Dorice entered the world of writing with both feet and freely admits it is her most satisfying career ever.
She has won or placed in eleven Romance Writers of America® chapter contests and finaled in many more. She sold her very first completed novel, The Gunn of Killearnan, a historic and romantic adventure, set in 1650 Scotland, to NovelBooks, Inc. (NBI) Her second book, Unlawful, an Irish medieval/adventure set during the time of the Norse raids, arrives on the NBI scene in January. Presently, she’s working on another Irish historical, set during the beginnings of the Saratoga Thoroughbred Racing years. Two contemporary thrillers are in the offing.
Dorice lives in the Adirondack Mountains of upstate New York, with her attorney husband, also a writer. A mixed breed dog with a glorious nature and two independent cats rule the entire household.
