Since May 2009, our Romance University readership has exploded. And as we strive to provide ever-improving content and outreach, the administrative responsibilities of running a successful blog have also grown.
Adrienne, Tracey and I decided we needed to recruit more help, and we’re excited to announce the newest addition to the Romance University faculty: Carrie Spencer. Carrie has been a regular reader and participant at RU since the early days. With her knowledge of our mission, her technical background and outgoing personality, Carrie was a perfect match for our faculty needs.
Carrie Spencer writes smart ass romance. She belongs to Romance Writers of America, Yosemite Romance Writers, Romance Writers Online, Fantasy, Futuristic & Paranormal Group and was a former Girl Scout. Her badges included Collecting, Leadership and the coveted World Trefoil Pin. Carrie works as a restaurant manager, jewelry and website designer, and is learning how to use a flat iron. Her claims to fame include: lifting 50-pound bicep curls, stirring up a mean Mai Tai and concocting an even meaner Long Island Iced Tea. She lives on a farm in Iowa with seven cats and her English husband. For more about Carrie, head over to http://smartassromance.com/.
Please join us in welcoming Carrie as our new junior faculty member!
